Need a wedding Venue in Connecticut for a low budget wedding that does both ceremony & reception...any ideas?

We live in the bristol ct area so we are hoping it is close by there since our family is from this area also. we have a low budget and can't seem to find a venue to have the ceremony and reception at the same place...any ideas?

In Connecticut a Justice of The Peace can perform a wedding . My suggestion is to find a JP that will do the ceremony at a catering hall such as American Legion ,VFW , or similar place .Just my thought , I am sure there will be other suggestions . Good luck and have a happy marriage .

There are so many inexpensive restaurants on RT 6, I am sure you can find a place to rent you a room and cater the wedding at a nominal fee.

What about Lake Compounce ?
Drive around town and see what is available.

Look into the parks and recreation department in your area and see if they have facility rentals on site. I'm in NY and found a facility this way that costs $350 to rent and includes tables and chairs as well as a full kitchen we can use.

Talk to your local parks and recreation department. You have several parks and facilities
