VFW`s, AMerican Legion, KofC Banquet Halls?
Has anyone ever hosted their wedding reception at one of these club/organizations` reception halls?
Was it a good or bad experience? How was decor?
My fiance and I are on a tight budget and are looking into these cheaper halls as an option.

I have done several weddings and receptions at these types of halls. All my experiences, have been great. Several couples took this route to save on money.
There are several things to check into before renting the hall.
Couples also had their receptions catered, had someone to help plan and decorate them. Many I`ve done myself alone and with the couples. They turned out extremely beautiful both ways and couples were very happy.
If you would like more information on things you should know before you rent-please email me at: melody@fairytaleweddingsandbridal.com

My sister got married at American Legion and it was very nice, the food was excellent. We had a great time.

My husband and I had our wedding reception at the American Legion Hall in Northbrook, IL. It was not decorated wonderfully. But our reception was at night and in the winter 3 days after christmas. We had snowflakes hanging all over the hall. Mini Christmas tree`s on every table. Beautifully decorated tree`s throughout the women to cover not so pretty walls. There was a fire place with a fire that added to the decor. It was warm and friendly. 10 years later friends who married in expensive banquet halls and country clubs always comment how fun our wedding was. It was not hoity toity. It was relaxed and comfortable. We danced all night and had great food catered in. No one felt uncomfortable and everyone danced. It was wonderful. I am planning my 10 year anniversary party there and everyone is anxiously awaiting.

I help staff and plan smaller weddings on budgets. I have done a few in legions and vfws. They are just as beautiful as you want them to be. You can decorate how you want and have them catered by who you want. You can just search vfw in your local area on whitepages.com or just google.
