Indoor Garden Wedding

Hi all. I am planning an indoor garden themed wedding for December 2011 for 150 people and am having trouble finding a reception venue.  Ideally I would like to find somewhere with huge windows that face a forrest, garden, or lake so that I can bring the outdoors inside despite the cold.  I have been searching specifically for Atriums and Greenhouses with no luck.  Have any of you seen somewhere like this? 

Thanks!

    Did you try the Morris Arboretum?  I don't know if you can have that many guests in the winter though..

    Take a look at the Ace Conference Center in Lafayette Hill.  Its not exactly a garden, but the ballroom has one wall that is all windows.  Its sits on top of a hill and has a great view of the surrounding rolling fields.

    You could look into pricing at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, PA

    That place is GORGEOUS!!! I bet it's expensive though, maybe its in your budge.

    The other place I loved but was to pricey was The Lake House Inn (its not an atrium but it has a wall of windows that look out onto a lake)

    One of the country clubs near Avalon NJ has a sun room area, so do some restaurants.  Llanerch Country Club in Havertown has a huge sunporch, anywhere with a sunporch would be great because they presume people will be looking outside so landscape appropriately.  I'd check the other local country clubs.

    It's not looking into a garden, but Glen Foerd Mansion (clicky link) has a Conservatory that overlooks the Delaware River and the woods.
