Reception Venues

We have booked a wedding at Robert Carr Chapel for 300, but are still in search of a good venue! Any ideas that are reasonable and semi-close to TCU?

Here are the large venues I know of in FW. The first 3 are BYOB (which usually means you make make them as expensive or as reasonable as you want, since you bring in your own caterer and alcohol):

T & P Station in downtown FW can seat 240. http://www.the-t.com/ReserveTheTP.aspx

Fort Worth Community Arts Center can seat up to 500 if you rent all the galleries. http://www.fwcac.com/?rentals/events

Artspace 111 can seat 220 / cocktail style 300. http://www.ftworthculture.com/rental-information/rental-information/

Palace Room - can't recall the exact capacity, but it's huge and Texas/rustic style. BYOB, but you have to use their caterer. http://www.fortworthstockyards.org/Business.aspx?bId=100&type=2

Bass Hall in FW has a bunch of rental spaces. http://www.basshall.com/rentalsroomlobby.jsp

Stockyards Station in FW has several event rooms, one of which can seat 800. You have to use their caterer; can't recall but I feel like it may have been BYOB. http://www.stockyardsstation.com/The-Stampede-Room.html

I'd love to recommend my 2 venues (809 at Vickery and YWCA in downtown Ft W) but both have a capacity limit of 175.
