is it tacky to get married at a venue where my friend got married at 2 yrs ago?

No. No one will care.

No big deal. Go for it if you love it!

Nope, so not a big deal!

Oh no, no way. It's a venue FFS. Nobody cares, honestly.

Thank u for ur support. im feeling much better about it now. <3

The venue we're getting married at is really popular so I have a few friends and family members who have gotten married there. Needless to say I don't think it's a big deal. Your wedding isn't a copy of hers, it's yours! Make it yours with different decor and whatnot.

Nope!

I dont think so. Just make sure your wedding is better than theirs LOL

Not tacky at all!

I agree, no one will care. I'm also getting married in Chandler (Inspirador). I found some other non-golf course venues too. Let me know if you're interested.

I don't think so at all!

I LOVE CHANDLER, go there every year. What venue are you speaking of?

Here are other venues I was interested in before I booked at Inspirador (but I still think it's perfectly fine to use the same venue as your friend...in fact my best friend may use Inspirador a year after my wedding).

I also love the Desert Botanical Gardens.

Not at all! We're actually having our reception at the same place my parent's reception was at 25 years ago!
