To the best of my knowledge, I believe there are guidelines in our local mosques for us to be properly attired, whether we are there for solat or other purposes. This means for the woman, the head has to be fully covered.
In the light of this it is probably best if your fiance covers the head fully with the tudung.
Inshaallah I hope you and your fiance have a happily married life.. :-)

Salaam,
erm which mosque? I remember my brother perform his nikah at the Sultan mosque, and the location is just outside main prayer hall.
Food reception space is also available, at the other seperate building within the Sultan mosque ( I think near the office?). As far as tudung, well it is respectful in the mosque to do so. I mean, if every one of faith would respect their own place of worship, why wouldn't we Muslims do the same haha...

Some of the mosques like Sultan Mosque have separate buildings for Functions like these.
Some moques are OK as long they dont enter the prayer halls.
Muslimahs that do not donn the tudung/hijab can enter the premises. It is encourage to do so though but you see we cannot control people especially the guests and we cannot force people to donn what they wont do. You are just gonna create trouble in such occasions.
Allah works in miraculous ways..All you know that visit to the mosque will be able to move the Muslimah's heart to wear that tudung.
