Good Cheap Reception Venues

I'm having my wedding at St. Dominic's church in Fountain, and we're going to save a lot of money having it there, so I want to go all out for the reception, but don't want to spend too much. I really want to choose my own Cater, and Most of my own decorations, but a lot of places in the Colorado Springs area is either really expensive or have so many restrictions on what I can do...Any suggestions? I'm not looking for anything too fancy...but not too tacky either. =] I guess i'm just picky. But yeah...any suggestions?
I'm not looking to go too far from fountain. So around the Colorado Springs area....

    I tried looking for this too ... It's almost impossible.  We finally found The Lodge at Cathedral Pines which is where we will be having both the ceremony and reception.  It's fairly small (they recommend no more than 96 guests), but everything is up to you.  Your cake, food, music, alcohol ... You figure out what you want and do it.  They just provide the location.  It's beautiful, but might be farther than you're looking to go.  It's in northern Black Forest but because of that it's tucked in trees and has really beautiful grounds.

    a friend of mine who lives in the springs went to a bridal show that catered to local vendors found it very helpful. I would highly recommend going to one of those. Congrats and welcome!!
