Going crazy over a venue.

So, after going crazy trying to set a wedding date, it was changed from March to September to May 28th of 2011 and its staying there if its the last thing I do. We have our colors our wedding party , and tomorrow I am going to find my gown, but I cannot find a venue. I need a venue that is affordable 800 is pushing it. It has to allow outside catering and have room for 70 guests. If anypne can help me find a venue and save my sanity in the process, I would appreciate it.
         Thank You!!

    A venue around here for $800 is going to be pretty difficult. I would suggest looking at county websites for list of venues they provide. There are a lot of historic places around that are used as rentals.

    Here are some:
    Clark House in Annadale rents for $700-825 depending on where you live. It hold 65 people inside and has room for an outdoor wedding. It comes with tables and chairs.
    Farifax County and Fairfax City have lots of places but this one is the closest to your price range.

    I'd also look at the Old Town Manassas Courthouse-not sure of price or some other PWC places

    If you not opposed to traveling there are a lot of placed in Maryland that are available as well.

    Dreamaa, there is not a specific location we have in mind, well there was Maymont in Richmond, but that is way beyond our budget and doesnt allow outside caterers. I just want somewhere that is nice , preferably an indoor location with an option to go outside . If anyone that knows a location like this it can be maybe a thousand I would appreciate it.

    I am in Alexandria and there are plenty of City buildings that can accommodate smaller parties. Look @ parks too! Historic mansions can work in your favor as well.

    Good luck!
