Please recommend Reception Places Under $100pp

I am still looking for 'the place' I cancelled my original RH b/c we realized there was no way we would be able to afford it. Then I was going to have a Destination Wedding, but that was turning out to be quite expensive too. Please recommend anything that would be under $100. I want something laid back, beachy, garden, outdoors, etc... Anything like that would work.

I would have a big bbq if I knew someone w/a big enough backyard. At this point, I am very flexible. We want to put the money towards a house instead. TIA

Westbury Manor is not beachy but does have gardens & is under 100 per person

Chateau Le Mar is beachy but does not have gardens & is under 100 per person.

Thanks. It doesn;t have to have all these things. One would be great, just an idea of what I am looking for.

Maybe try the Riverview or Snapper Inn both in Oakdale. I think they both have menus for under 100pp depending on the day you are having it!

Even though it's not much of what you asked for PLEASE check out The Metropolitan in Glen Cove. The food is amazing and i know it can be under $100 pp depending on the day and time of year, etc. There is a smaller club downstairs and there is Morgan Park about 2 minutes around the corner for pictures.

Check out the Swan Club! It has gorgeous gardens and lakes and is pretty reasonable.

Re: Please recommend Reception Places Under $100pp

there's a place on lake ronkonkoma that is reasonably priced... I forget the name

danford's in port jeff is also quite reasonable... although for sat night, I believe they're above 100/pp. and bar is extra, I believe...

Afternoon and fri/sundays are definitely a better value than sat eve....

Re: Please recommend Reception Places Under $100pp

Do they have the reception all on one floor or is it split?

The Metropolitan

Westbury Manor is beautiful with its gardens and you can get a really good price with alot of things added to your menu. Def check them out, but of course some months are more expensive than others

There is two places in Ronkonkoma but I wouldn't recommend either of them. We were originally thinking of having our wedding at Windows on the Lake. They were sooooo rude to us then I found negative feedback on here about them.

Thatched Cottage is really nice we got a price MUCH less than $100 for an off season. I believe it was around $80 peak as well.

W. Sayville Country club is also really nice as is Timber Point.

Woodbury Country Club? They have a nice outdoor area and I was quoted $95 for a saturday eve in june. perhaps a different time or day can get you less.

Places I know have a water view- but I don't know much about the costs are bridgeview yacht club, ventian yacht club, chateu la mer, carltun on the sound, crescent beach club. Remember that friday nights, and sundays are cheaper than saturday nights.

Re: Please recommend Reception Places Under $100pp

Im gonna say, without a doubt...youre gonna wanna go check out Swan Club....it is one of the most beautiful at one of the best prices-per-person...the only downside to this place is the chairs are ugly...might want to get covers for them...but the gardens outside.... and the large window picturesque views from the ballrooms are unbeat.....check it out. I'm endorsing it and thats not even where I'm having my wedding , heheheee...so you know its unbiased! :)

P.S. You area smart woman to put your money into a nice house instead !!!!!!
