It's no different than if some guy brought in a gun and started shooting - the place and the event planner could not foresee this happening and therefore could not be considered negligent.
I had also meant to comment on this earlier , I agree 100% that since there is no longstanding tradition of flying drones at weddings and since I highly doubt that the event planners or building owners gave their prior consent to drone flying as being a part of this celebration , there is no way I'd hold anyone but the drone flyer himself responsible for what happened . I know lawsuits always target the deepest pockets , hoping for a jackpot payout , but the simple fact is that only one person is responsible for the women's injuries , the guy who flew his drone where he shouldn't have .
