So I've become completly discouraged! My fiance and I have been been looking at venues and are completly at a loss. We're hoping to get married in Sept or Oct of 2011 and want to have an elegant but casusal brunch reception. I was really hoping to have the recepton at a restaurant, specifically Woodberry Kitchen, which is completely amazing, however, they don't rent the restaurant for weekend brunch and a weekend evening rental is way out of our price range, as its over $30,000! Does anyone have any ideas on restaurants or other nontraditional venues. We're going to have approximately 100 to 120 people. I appreciate any ideas or advice. Thanks!
