HELP! Everywhere I call has crazy prices. We are having a small wedding under 100 guests & need somewhere to have our reception. Any ideas for anywhere in Omaha/Council Bluffs Area will do. I need a place that I can cater myself, I just need the space, tables, & chairs.

I'm not sure about your price but Scottish Rite is absolutely beautiful. We attended a wedding there a year and a half ago and the couple was able to bring in their own caterers and bar/alcohol. They are right off 20th and Dodge in Omaha. A View West  off 156th and Maple is a really pretty place, too, but again, I'm not sure on the price you'd be willing to spend. Good luck :-)

I am booking Scottish Rite for my 2013 wedding. It IS so beautiful and I love how much I'll be saving on food and alcohol, but it is $2000 to rent, not including linens, security, etc. I definitely had to re-budget a few things in order to afford this place, but I can't imagine having it anywhere else now!

If you're looking for cheaper option, my cousin had her reception at Legacy Hall. Her wedding was small and SUPER budgetted, but it was a nice place. Also, I have heard that Royal View Hall allows self-catering. Hope this helps and good luck!

Have you looked into VFW or Legion Halls? They are usually reasonable, just need more decorating.

I don't know exactly what you are looking for, but I did mine at the ackerhurst dairy barn. The rental is $800 for space, tables and chairs and you bring in your own food and alcohol.

You may also want to try the Regency Park and Tennis. It's very beautiful and inexpensive.

Omaha Parks and Rec (any location) is super affordable: http://www.ci.omaha.ne.us/parks/rentals/pavilions. I'm thinking of doing that and then just renting the linens and other items I need but will see how it works out. Otherwise, I would recommend just doing it in the basement of the church if you're doing a church wedding!

Not sure about them yet, but Bayliss Park Hall in CB has $450 for a reception on their website. Again, haven't called, but I hope it works out for you!
