Rent a beautiful AirBnB location with lots of indoor and outdoor space, on a lake, with a view. A weekend rental will be much cheaper than an official wedding location. Also think of off season pricing October - April. The AirBnB can also double as a sleepover spot for out of towners.

5. The Drinks 

Beer and wine are fine.Limit the alcoholic beverages to a few choices of beer, throw in some local craft beer or get a keg. Make your own fruity, colorful sangria.

Those who want something stronger can bring their own.
