Are you looking for a specific type of venue or just anything that can work?

The targeted venue cost will make your task more difficult unless you find a creative option for your venue.

Try churches, libraries, community halls, and parks department that have venue rental fees. Catering in your budget will be more challenging as you're trying to do $9-13 pp which doesn't include labor and service fees. Drop off buffet may work in your favor.

City owned parks department venues easily accommodate this at a low price and have much more flexibility than all inclusive venues. They include tables, chairs and often a kitchen so you don’t have to worry about those. Do a Google search for the parks department website for your city and they will list what is available. Then you ask your favorite local restaurant to provide drop off catering for a fraction of the cost of regular wedding catering, and you get more and better food that you are already familiar with.
