Please help me find a reception hall....

I need to find a reception hall that will charge no more than $50 pp (with tax and gratuity included). We are willing to get married on a Sunday before a holiday (i.e. Memorial Day, Labor Day). We need a reception Hall that can accommodate at least 150 people. The food has to be excellent and the hall has to look great. We would prefer to have the ceremony and the reception at the same location. We're very flexible and are willing to have the ceremony and get married in Queens, Brooklyn and Nassau County.

ETA: As flexible as I am with the location, I will not comprise on a winter wedding to cut on the cost because I hate the cold weather.

Please help me

I don't know of any hall that comes out to under $50/pp,
I looked on the reception hall guide and found these:
we checked some of them out
ariana waterfall
the coral house this was our #2 before our hall... that we agreed on, we each had our own #1 fav. I think they might be in your budget, but I'm not sure what you'll get for that, we were quoted $72/pp++ for a saturday I think in Feb or April, I can't remember
Fox Hollow We checked there too, I think we were quoted at $69/pp++ for a friday night in November, but again, I don't remember EXACTLY
george washington manor
the horbor club
larkfield manor I think we were quoted around $85/pp++ for a saturday, I don't remember what month
Marconi Manor
med. manor
^ has a package deal
pine hollow inn
shandon court
stuart thomas manor I'm actually going to a sweet 16 there Nov 20th... haven't been there before
the meadow club
they were around $65/pp++ for a saturday night
the riviera quoted $95/pp++ for a sunday in April
Verdi's of Westbury (Our Hall) We talked them down we're just under $100/pp for a Sat in Oct. They will work with you.
Villa Lombardis
The WaterMill

and some others i know of:
Irish Coffee Pub not sure of the price, but I heard its affordable and the food is AMAZING
the galaxie I've heard they are affordable, I know people who have had parties and weddings there that were under $55/pp
Manor East Package Deal
Brentwood CC Package Deal

Maybe you want to look into all inclusive packages for the price you want. You should check out

Verdis of Westbury
Swan Club
Brentwood CC (all inclusive)
Villa Russo (all inclusive & in queens)
Ariana Water Fall (all inclusive)

Swan Club starts at $ 70/pp and for Sunday, they might go down to 60 or 65/pp.

You might want to check out Coral House in Baldwin (Nassau). They are the only place that gave me a quote for $50/pp for a Sunday afternoon/evening reception.

Good luck!

Most of the places i read above, i know for a fact are too expensive because they quoted me way over 50 per person with tax and fees included for a thursday night.

try:
-riverview
-antun's
-holiday inn plainview
-mill river manor
-molly malone's
-sunset harbor
-allison rose
-bruno's on the blvd
-matteo's
-plattduetsche park
-pine hollow inn
-main maid inn
-marconi manor


hope this helps

Thank you everyone for your help...I have been so busy that's why didn't reply to this post sooner.

@ Jordy: You're abosultely right. I've called some of the reception hall and they were asking more money for a Sunday before a Holiday.

Thanks Xela....

leonards quoted us 53pp!
also I agree try Verdis of Westbury...FH used to work there he says they are very reasonable;

I just saw where Pine Hollow Inn has a deal for under 5k for 100 people if you booke before Dec. 31st. Its under the vendor promotion on LIW page.


Congrats!!
