Water View Reception Ideas?

Do any of you have any recommendations for a reception site with a view of the water?  My sister is remotely planning a wedding in the Boston area for the summer of 2012.  There will be about 200 guests and the reception budget will be around 25k.  Anywhere in MA, RI, NH would be awesome.  Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

    Hyatt Harborside! I am getting married there this summer. The prices are pretty good considering it's in Boston. The view of the harbor and the city are amazing!  You can get married in their skyline ballroom which is small but an amazing view, their ballroom which could definitely fit 200 and they have an outside tent.  The view is totally worth it though!! Good luck!

    I am getting married at Cruiseport Glocuester, it is located on a working waterfront, about 40 minutes North of Boston.  I believe they can hold about to 250-300 as well.

    25k for 200 people for a water view would be tough in RI. I'd check in to Easton's Beach Rotunda and Atlantic Beach Club in Newport, RI. Also, look at Quidnesset in North Kingston, RI. In MA, you could look in to Lake Pearl in Wrentham or maybe Lake View Pavillion in Foxboro?

    Danversport in Danvers, MA is right on the water.  It's beautiful and their ballroom is beautiful.  It would definitely be under $25k. Good luck to your sister!

    I second ebigelow. I just had an award ceremony at the Seaport World Trade Center in Boston and it was beautiful. I actually said to my FH that this would be an awesome place for a wedding.

    Lake View Pavilion in Foxboro is super pretty, but might be tough for 200 people on 25k budget...

    You could also try White Cliffs CC in Plymouth or Bournedale Function Facility in Plymouth as well.

    Cruisport Gloucester has a water view and is relatively newish so it's clean and fresh looking.
