What is the absolute best portrait lens for the Nikon Z6 right now if I actually want that creamy bokeh without spending a fortune on the Noct?

I have been shooting with Nikon for like 10 years mostly on my old D750 with the 85mm 1.8G and I finally switched to the Z6 mirrorless body a few months ago. While I am using the FTZ adapter for my old glass right now I feel like I am missing something. The autofocus is faster sure but the old 85mm feels a bit clinical or maybe just jittery on the new sensor? I dont know how to describe it but it just doesnt feel the same anymore.

I am doing a wedding shoot for my cousin in Seattle next month and I really want to upgrade to native Z glass before then. I looked at the 85mm f/1.8 S and people say its sharp but is it too sharp for portraits? Like will it show every single pore on the skin? I was also looking at the Viltrox 85mm because its way cheaper but I am worried about the color fringing and if the eye-af will actually stay locked on during the ceremony.

My budget is around $800 max so the f/1.2 is way out of the question sadly. Is there a sleeper lens I am missing or should I just stick with the S line 1.8 and call it a day? The 50mm 1.8 S also looks decent but maybe too wide for what I want...
