Worcester Area Brides!! PLEASSE Help

NHLC2011

Okay So my fiance and I are supposed to be getting Married July 20th 2012, and that date is firm well assuming i can get it together by then. I have pretty much nothing planned.  I am trying to keep this at a vry low budget like maybe no more than 6 to 7grandish- We are looking to get married outside some where but having a hard time finding a receptionsite outside in our area, leiceter, spencer, charlton,sturbridge, auburn, or surrounding towns with a reception hall close-i am sure there are places but to be honest i am terrible at things like this so i am very overwhelmed and i dont even know where to start. i am not looking to spend an arm and a leg on food-  i do kno a caterer that will do it for a good price but i dont even know where to start to look for a hall that allows u to use your own caterer.. orginially we wanted to get married on the beach which we realized just couldnt happen so we are just gnna do a beach themed wedding- anyway i knw  this post is all over the place but ANYYYY suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!!

** July 20th 2012 is exactly 10 years from when we first  started dating incase ur wndering why the date is important and i'd really rather not change it if at all possible.. i know im corny :-)

Have you asked your caterer?  They get around a lot and may have some great ideas for you.  Same with your other vendors.  They do it every weekend, so have seen quite a bit.

Check out the Myriad Ballroom in Mendon - I remeber it being super cheap and if you don't do an open bar you can probably stay in your budge.  It's obviously not on the beach but you can have the ceremony outside on their lawn overlooking a lake.

I think the Wayside Inn in Sudbury is within your budget. I'm not sure if they do weddings outside but they have beautiful grounds and scenery for pictures.

The Wayside Inn is where I am getting married! You can't use any outside catering services and they have some hidden fees for using the property! If you do look at them be sure to ask for any extra fees for using outside or on site property.

Are you wanting to spend no more than $6-7000 on the venue, or the entire event?  Old Sturbridge Village was relatively inexpensive last time I looked. 

What about trying to do something at a state park?  Wells near Sturbridge has a beach.  And I've always liked BIgelow Hollow.  I guess it depends how outdoorsy and casual you are willing to go.

I suggest Leicester Country Club. You can't use an outside caterer, but their menu options are reasonable (my budget is in line with yours, so you can trust me on that one!) and they are an absolute pleasure to work with.
