Help! Need reception venue and on a budget

TitaG1991

I'm planning my own wedding and I'm trying to find some nice, elegant reception areas. My budget for my wedding is under $5000 so I need somewhere for cheap but that doesn't look cheap. I live in Norwalk so anywhere around there would be nice.

Also dance floor is must.

Thanks!

I used to live in Norwalk! =] I got married at The Clarke Estate in Santa Fe Springs in 2010 and, if I remember correctly, it was about 2k to rent out.  You can bring in your own food, etc. I also shot a wedding there [I am a wedding photographer] and the grounds are just gorgeous.

I also shot a wedding at the Gilbert Sproul Museum in Norwalk and it really is a hidden little gem.  It's a small venue but the ceremony was outdoors and reception in doors.  I don't know exactly how much it was to rent it out, but I do know the bride was on a small budget.

Good luck and let me know if you have any questions!

<div>Have you checked out the Norwalk Arts & Sports Complex? They have different rooms available, but the one we looked at was the Sproul Room. It holds 150 people and is $691.50 for 5 hours. Each additional hour is $150. It's really nice if you're having a smaller wedding.</div>
