The 50/50 is perfect. Your D will glow in that dress and you will both glow seeing her. It would be nice if you could all swell with pride in the same room - little shared experiences like this are a "good thing" to my mind.
In terms of catching up for a coffee. If you both share a nice time. Why is that bad. Suggest, if you do, don't suggest another. Let him. Go dark again as you plan. Popping into his life every now and then so he can see the best version of you is not a bad thing. Just stay detached as much as you can - and most of all happy!
Christmas will be lovely. I think its worry about the unknown. But the unknown can bring a nice surprise too!!
