Is it strange to have your second wedding in the same venue as your first?

Gathering opinions please!

My fiancé and booked our wedding about 6 months ago after mutually deciding on a venue that is special to us.

I've just found out that his wedding to his first wife was in the same place, having stumbled across an old wedding photo of his. It must have been a special place for him and his ex wife too! I haven't mentioned it as I don't know if I'm wrong in thinking it is strange to choose the same venue?

Yes. I know someone who did this. All the family and friends on his side were the same. It was like deja vu.

And somehow made the wedding vows sound less sincere as he had literally stood in the exact same spot making the same promises to someone else.

To make matters worse, his second wife had the same first name as his first wife and afterwards took his surname. So same first name, same surname, same venue, same guests.

Very strange.

Omg 🫣 that's awful! 🤣
