  I have been to Avalon Yacht Club for a wedding that was a lot of fun, but don't know pricing.  The only think I know about One Atlantic is from a friend of mine who is a vendor....apparently the venue charges all of the vendors 20% of their total cost they are charging you just for the vendor to enter, they also need to have a very hefty insurance policy to enter.  So, a lot of vendors have to up their charges to you to make it even worth their while to take a booking there.  Its very on the DL so they do not tell you about it, so just be aware that it may be more expensive to book vendors for that venue if that's what you decide.

  For the heck of it, I had reached out to Borgata/Water Club for pph & packages when venue shopping, knowing full well that it would be far out of reach for FI & I.  You'd be looking to start at a minimum of about $150 pp.  And that package did not include anything too over the top.  If you send in a request online, they will forward you this info without hassle though.
  
  I'd have to agree with Jaqcap, as Atlantic One is a space that requires you to bring in everything...but must follow their guidelines.  I recall a large fee on top of the cost for your vendors to use the space.
  
  Have you considered looking at The Chelsea?  I communicated back and forth for a bit with them but, while they have a cool trendy look we originally wanted, their pph versus what's included didn't appeal enough to book.
  
  Good luck!
