Did anyone else suddenly lose their dream venue?

I had my ceremony and reception site (same location) all picked out. I am absolutely in love with them and they are perfect in every way…perfect size, location, price, atmosphere, and so on. I couldn’t believe I lucked out and found this place. But since this is an unusual venue and they don’t do a ton of rentals/weddings, they don’t take reservations super far in advance. So even though I talked to the owners and they said it’s fine for me to get married there on my date, I couldn’t officially reserve it yet bceause they don’t take reservations before 4 months prior to the event. Well, I just got a call saying they have decided to go through the process of changing ownership. The new owners arae changing the venue into something else. It might still be possible for me to have a ceremony there, but probably not a reception. (And they won’t even know that for a few more months.)

I am so disappointed because I was really looking forward to this place. And now, since I thought I already had a location, I have no venue and many other places are booked. I know it will work out and I’ll find a way and still have an awesome wedding, but it’s a downer. Just curious if anyone else suddenly “lost” their dream venue.
