My FI and I are looking at a venue that is in-between both of our families, so one side doesn't have to drive farther than the other. The venue that we are looking at was the same venue that my former friend was going to have her reception. She canceled the venue because of covid, and we had a falling out over me not being able to attend due to covid. (I was high risk at the time of her wedding due to ongoing sickness and she refused to have guidelines in place.)
He doesn't know that this was the venue she chose, and seems to really like it. I have people from myside that will be attending that went to her wedding. They are aware that ex-friend was going to use this venue originally and I am afraid of getting backlash if we used it. He didn't like ex-friend anyways, so I know he isn't going to care that she was going to use it. I really don't want to deal with any backlash that might, but it still is a really good contender for venues. Anyone have an opinion about this? Please no hate, thank you
