wedding reception for 150 ppl
Many American Legions, VFWs, Town Halls, Senior Center, Rental Halls are space rental only and have kitchens but allow you to bring your own food in. I think your best option is to start making phone calls and just asking. You could also attend a Wedding Fair local to you and see if any vendors offer this option.
talk to a wedding shop or wedding planner thats in your area. i once worked for a bridal shop and i had to know where you could go to have a reception. i also had contact info for the rentable places. so if you were here i would have a list for you.any bridal shop or wedding planner will know which direction to point you
Welcome to mamapedia!!
VFW (veterans of Foreign Wars), your local community center, there are many different places.
Have you spoken to a wedding planner?
Have you tried calling anywhere?
Have you googled wedding planners in Dover DE?

Google, "wedding reception in Dover" and start calling places. Good luck.
Churches quite often have a hall available - often for no or little fee if you have the wedding ceremony there. Also, look at parks - quite often they have "lodge rooms" that are used for all types of events.
have you googled any information yet? Did you hire a wedding planner to help you find the best deals and places where you can do what you want?
You can get married in a local park and bring your own food. Weddings don't have to cost tens of thousands of dollars.
Community Centers allow outside food in.
You REALLY need to hire a wedding planner or go to the library and borrow a book on wedding planning and use it.
This is where being a long-time, active member of a church is a reward.
Well, to be honest I don't think I've ever rented a "space" where they didn't expect you to have your food catered. So, if you're doing it yourself just say it's being catered by a family member and don't bother with hiring someone.
The potluck style receptions I've attended have been held in church basements after the ceremony, or in rented multi-purpose locations like city park pavilions (indoor and outdoor) and in American Legion or VFW halls.
Usually churches, VFWs/ American Legion posts, and private clubs like the Elks rent their spaces. You may need to have someone with a Serve Safe designation to get around the liability issue, but that's something that can be obtained if you aren't using a caterer. You could also check with area colleges especially if your wedding is during the summer when most students aren't on campus and activity levels are lower.
