A few thoughts come to mind. When is the wedding ?, and possibly a during the week wedding would be more affordable than the weekend version. My guess is that all outdoor venues fall under some governing authority, and it may be necessary to secure permission from that authority to use the space for something such as a wedding. My daughter was married outside in a public space and I had to show proof of insurance to the Town, post a "clean-up" retainer which I got back, and to secure the actual space we wanted several cousins and uncles went over early and staked out the area we wanted. Everything worked wonderfully.

Another alternative would be to be married by a local justice or town clerk, with a very small group present, and then have a reception at another location with more invited guests.

Where are you?
