Need a CHEAP outdoor venue for summer 2013 Wedding

Katie+Cupcakes · December 2012

Hi ladies...and any gents here!

I am a newly engaged lady with a virtually inexistent budget - as in we already ruled out catering entirely. Boo

Is there anyone out there with a good lead on a pretty place to be married in the great outdoors? I live in Center City...and have a father who can't travel too far out of the city. I don't need any catering...JUST a PLACE to take our vows.

ANY help would be appreciated! I haven't a clue where to begin and have no girlfriends to ask.

Thank you in advance for anyone willing to help!

I am not sure on pricing, but might be worth looking into?

hunting hill mansion at ridley creek state park (although I don't know if walking will be an issue I only saw pictures, i didn't do a venue visit..)

You can do just a ceremony at Ridley park, but I have no idea of cost. Maybe you should check out state parks and see which of them can be used for wedding ceremonies. I know the Chapel at Valley Forge Park is rentable but it's not cheap.
