I'm afraid that this depends on the behavior of Calendar. There's no 
standard way to do this other than via a “Share” button which is not 
used here. Apparently Calendar does something special when the default 
application is Apple Mail.

That said, it appears one can also not drag the even into an email. I'll 
see if that can be improved.

You can drag an event to the Finder and then drag the resulting file 
into an email. It also works for me if I drag the event directly onto 
the MailMate icon.

(I'm guessing it would also be possible to create an AppleScript which 
can do it using the extended `mailto:` URL scheme available for 
[MailMate](https://manual.mailmate-app.com/extended_url_scheme).)
