Is this to weird for people to get past?

Is the property big enough that the ceremony, and maybe even the reception areas could be in a different location than the first one? I think it's unusual but not so out of the realm of reasonable, especially since you and your fiancé have made new memories there together. As you said, you have the right guy this time so the rest is just frosting on the cake.

If I were a guest, I would think it was kinda weird. Superstitious people might think it's SUPER weird. But if you and your FH can get past it and are comfortable with it, it really doesn't matter. Personally I think I would go with a different venue, but if the venue is that important to the both of you, I would just ignore everyone else

I completely understand. And you're absolutely right, you shouldn't have to sacrifice this venue all because of your first marriage if you really love it the way you seem to! At the end of the day, the people who are going to talk crap are going to do it either way. Whether you go with a different venue or not, those kinds of people will always find SOMETHING to nitpick and complain about. If your fiancé is good with it, I say go for it!

I probably wouldn't. I would feel pretty weird as a guest (and as your fiance) if you repeated things like that for your second wedding.

All that matters is that you've expressed it with your fiance and he's on board. If it's something you really want to do then go for it! Your guests will either attend or not. They can say what they want but even if it is weird to them, if they love you, they will show.

Thank you And you are very welcome! I wish you the best in your planning and I'm so happy you found the right one! This will be 2nd as well and my 1st wasn't great either so I totally understand the re-do. Perfect venue, perfect guy! Now plan for that perfect day and don't let anyone tear you down about it!

If its large enough to do it in a separate space i would try that. but if not, as long as you and your fiance are happy with it that's all that matters. If the guests don't like it then they don't have to be there. Its your day, not theirs. Good luck!

It's your wedding and your fiance is fine with it I'd do it. My first wedding was in Lake Tahoe and then we had a vow renewal at 10 years in Vegas. Both were spots FH and I considered until we realized eloping there cost just as much as having a bigger reception in our home state.

I don't see any problem with this at all, as long as you and FH are ok with it. That was then, this is now, and if this is the venue you love, go for it!! Who cares what other people think? They will either come or they won't. And as for talking crap, people like that will talk crap anyway. If it wasn't the repeat venue, they would find something else to whine about. Just tune it out, and plan your dream wedding (Take Two!!). Good luck, and happy planning!!

It is a second marriage for both myself and FH so I totally get this. I really loved my first wedding venue, same as you, wasted it on the wrong guy, but FH isn't about having it there, and he also didn't want it at a gold course or country club as that was where his first wedding was. So we found a good venue that was what we both loved, that we didn't have for our first marriages. Check with your FH and see how he honestly feels about it.
