FI and I went around for 6 hours yesterday checking out potential venues and nothing has clicked with us so far.
We looked at:
-Jupiter Beach Resort (too pricey)
-Indian Riverside Park (not too keen on the banquet room)
-The Mansion at Tuckahoe (too pricey)
We tried to look at Harbour Ridge Golf and Yacht Club, but they wouldn't let us in without an appointment. Also, had the JBR not been too pricey, it still wouldn't have been the one as our sit down dinner and dancing would have been in separate places.
We are going to have about 75 people and would prefer to be in the Fort Lauderdale - Stuart area. We are hoping to keep the venue, reception (sit down dinner and alcohol), ceremony under $7500 (I'm starting to wonder if this is even possible). We would also like to have the ceremony and reception in one place.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
