reception sites/photo sites

I am unable to afford to have my wedding at a reception site that offers a castle like or a mansion style atmosphere ex---The vanderbilt, Oheka Castle or Coindre Hall.
Can anyone offer up any suggestions to similar style sites that would allow for photo opportunities at a MINIMAL cost or do you know of any other reception sites that dont require a site fee with a similar look/feel. Thank you

EAB plaza in Uniondale or look up wedding sites and services.com or hallz.com depends on where you are planning to have your reception- good luck

I've checked out both the Old Westbury Gardens and the Planting Fields for pics and chose the planting fields for cost reasons (much cheaper) and leniancy (more flexibility where you can take pictures and for how long in each spot). Both places have mansions on the propery - here are some pics of the planting fields. there are many other spots for pics - these are just an idea

Oakdale Arboritum has a very old mansion.

we took photos at the Vanderbilt in Centerport. The grounds are beautiful, although we used the inside room because it was dark when we got there. I think it was 300 bucks for 3 hours
GOOD LUCK !!

I am also planning to take pictures at the Vanderbilt in Centerport. I really love the architecture and we are the only couple booked for the time so we won't be running into other brides.
