Would you take new boyfriend to a wedding when a ex boyfriend is there?

Well I say new boyfriend ...we've been together a year now.
We met 6 months after my narcissist (a million percent narcissist) discarded me.
I'm really nervous about seeing him as he was mentally abusive/made me feel worthless/got off on making me cry etc
When he discarded me he made sure he told me he was with a new woman.

Anyway I'm at a wedding next weekend,he will be there.
Do I take my new boyfriend along or will it be too awkward?
Part of me wants to show him I've moved on and I'm happy but another part of me worries I might feel uncomfortable as he put me through hell.

What would you do?
I honestly am over him but the part of me who was a shell after all he did to me..kind of wants to show him he didn't break me.

Yeah maybe the drinking isn't a good idea.
A few gins and I might get my Beyoncé head on...and nobody needs to see that do they Blush

I'm sure we'd love to see it! But your ex doesn't deserve it!

Isn't it crazy how you can let a ex who was a horrible human have so much power over your emotions
I keep asking myself why I'm so nervous
He should be nervous after his behaviour not me.
