Need Help Finding Unique Wedding Location!
I need help finding a unique wedding venue for my wedding. My fiance doesn't want to get married at a chain hotel and I don't want to get married at a catering hall or country club. We started looking at venues this past weekend and ofcourse the two that we loved (Crystal Springs Resort & Liberty House) were out of our budget. We also looked at but didn't like The Westin Hotel in Morristown and Perona Farms.
We want to get married on a Saturday night during Summer 2011, we're expecting around 200 guests. Since my fiance is from London a significant amount of guests will be travelling from there so somewhere not too far from an international airport would be nice and also someplace with an outdoor option would be a plus as well - Any help or suggesstions would REALLY be appreciated!!!
Thanks!!

My standard recs are
Loews Jersey movie theater (though it's not air conditioned in the summer and I believe that holds only 180 ... so maybe scratch that)
Mezzanine (an old bank)
Newark Museum
Montclair Art Museum
The Loft in Montclair
There are also several women's clubs that basically old houses -- Glen Ridge and Ridgewood are both quite nice.
I also got married at what is essentially just a cool big old house in NY state (not too far from Woodbuiry Commons). It's called FEAST at Round Hill. It's lovely, and does not look like a "banquet hall."
