When conflict between two friends affects the whole group

Our friend group has been planning this big trip for months but two people in the group had a falling out last week and now everyone else is caught in the middle, trying to decide whether to uninvite one of them or cancel the whole thing. The tension is making all of our other hangouts weird and nobody wants to be the one to address it directly.
