Unable to open up Serena's Amulet of Mara dialogue option (Skyrim, Dawnguard DLC)?

Question

From what I hear, you can wear the Amulet of Mara and use it to bring up a unique dialogue option when you talk to Serena after the completion of Dawnguards main questline. I have beaten the DLC's questline (on the Dawnguards side) and whenever I equip the Amulet of Mara and try talking to Serena, the unique dialogue option doesn't show up. Is this a bug or is there a reason for the dialogue not showing up?

According to the forums from those who have played the DLC, Serana is apparently not marriageable, but people have posted that while in the midst of the DLC's main storyline that she will answer "no" to your proposal and later tell you that she wont consider it until her father has been slain.

Many gamers have felt cheated to learn of such an in depth character that isn't up for grabs as part of the marriage system, which feels as if Bethesda may be trolling us, but if you wish to change this there is a petition going around trying to change that specific issue with the DLC.

Answer 2

You have to side with Lord Harkon at the start in order for it to show, if you go with the dawnguard the option will not appear. I have played both sides and with each one you get different dialogue options the one you want only appears by siding with the vampires.

I believe you have to talk to her about certain topics throughout the first half of the DLC and after she says you have a new friend now or something like that, you can wear the amulet and the dialogue option pops up, however you can't marry her I believe.
