Reasonable Venue

I am having a hard time finding a venue that is reasonable.  I am looking for a venue that will hold 150 people and where I can keep the budget about 7k. I want it to be a cocktail reception not sit down.  We want it to be a dance party.

Really, I would like for it to be a lounge/night club.  Any suggestions?

    What area are you looking in?  In the city/Delco/Bucks? 

    I know some friends who have rented like a warehouse-type space for a party like that before.  The one they use is actually in Wilmington, Delaware, and it's the rehearsal space of an Opera company.  I would look into some off the beaten path places.  Because if try to rent a restaurant, they are going to want to sell you a sit down dinner.  And renting out a club is not going to be cheap. 

    There are a ton of theatres in the area... see if they rent out their rehearsal space.  It's most likely a blackbox theatre, which is like a blank canvas.  You can turn that into whatever you want.
    Paprika: I like it when you burp in my ear. It really turns me on.

    If you are interested in the Bucks County area there is a place called Occasions in New Hope.  Its a super-trendy, artsy, converted factory.   I find them to be very accomadating.  I'm having a 5 hour reception for 140 ppl all for $9000.00 (including alcohol) You can PM me if you want more info! Good luck
