  My grandparents live in a big condo building (that is full of old people) but they have a meeting room.  We used that.  Ask around if people have club houses or condo meeting rooms.  Those are either super cheap or free.

  It's time. Adoption saving and process started in November 2012.

  Good idea from Barb.  We almost had our small wedding reception at a condo complex all-purpose building in Aurora.  It was a building that was separate from the condos and on a small lake with a gazebo.  It was $100 for a 24 hr period and we did not have to be members of the condo assoc or know anyone involved.  They just rented it out to make extra $$$$.  We never completed the process because the contract stipulated no alcohol.

  I agree w/a condo or apt. bldg. common room; that's where my BM's had my shower. Also try:
  -libraries
  -town halls
  -churches (a friend had a baby shower at her church common room)
  -VFW or American Legion halls

  Do you know name of the condo complex in Aurora that has a room rental for the public?  We are looking for a bridal shower venue in that area. Thanks!
