AIO? For not inviting my friend on a couples trip because I don’t like the way she talks about my bf?

My(f27) friend (f29), Casey, has mentioned on multiple occasions that she thinks I’m out of my boyfriend’s league and that I could do better. I always disagree with her and tell her how great of a guy he is. For reference he is very sweet and genuine, he’s smart, he’s patient with me, he’s kind to others, he’s good looking, he has a great job - he’s a catch imo. I also don’t think I’m out of his league, I think we are really well suited for each other.

We have all hung out together before and he’s been nothing but polite and friendly - they’ve never been alone together so if he had done something rude or weird in my absence other friends would have witnessed it and said something, but our other couple friends really like him.

She has started to send me some tik toks that negatively talk about traits that my boyfriend has or tik toks that talk about how when your friends date down etc. I don’t react and just leave her on read and I’ve started just not engaging with her. I haven’t told my boyfriend about any of it because I don’t want him to have his feelings hurt or feel insecure because he’s very sensitive and I don’t see how that would benefit him at all.

The friend group is now 3 couples, Casey’s bf is new to the group and we have yet to meet him (but he already has lots of drama surrounding him from what she has told us about him, he’s very immature and chaotic in a bad way imo). My other friend and I have decided we want to go on a couple trip and my bf offered to drive, but I don’t want to invite Casey and her bf because I’m covering part of the trip for everyone with some free tickets that I got and my boyfriend is driving and I don’t think she should get to benefit off of him if she’s going to talk down on him. I told my friend I didn’t want to invite Casey and what Casey has said about my bf and she was a little shocked but didn’t push back and added that she didn’t want to invite Casey’s bf anyway. I know Casey is going to be mad when she finds out she wasn’t invited because she has pretty intense fomo.

TLDR: my friend talks down on my bf so I do not want to invite her to a couples trip that he and I are throwing.

Am I overreacting?
