Trying to find a cheap venue

Does the venue budget cover all expenses including photography, officiant, marriage license, dj, catering, etc or is it venue only? You will have the best luck finding a parks department owned venue in your city for that price or less that includes tables, chairs and a full kitchen. It allows you flexibility and the ability to find budget friendly options for your other vendors that a regular all inclusive venue will not allow.

The Aurora at Mt. Vernon. Unfortunately the wedding package is about $6500, or you can just rent the main and lower hall for about $2000.
