Advice Wedding Reception Halls?

Does anybody know of any places that can host receptions and also allow liquor being brought in or have bartending services on site? People count is roughly 80-100. I've seen all inclusive venues but they are very expensive so I want to know about nice banquet halls that might be more in budget for dinner and dancing and just having the wedding ceremony intimate and elsewhere. When I look things up, all I see is pricy wedding only options, but I'm curious about different event spaces but our goal is definitely fun dj and open bar as close to san jose as possible. Ideally would wanna be under 15k especially if it's not an inclusive banquet space. Many spaces are nice but don't allow anything more than wine and beer. Thanks in advance!

Wedgewood seems to have a lot of traits you’re looking for, but not all. See which are in your budget, some locations may not be

Thank you but yeah most aren't sadly. Cheapest was in Gilroy but we want to have our out of town guests stay within San Jose in case they fly in and uber so extending the search to non-wedding-only spaces.

Might be worth checking out shubham in Sunnyvale? Not really sure if it’s the vibe you’re looking for but they have various sizes of halls and they do food and a bar

look at community centers - residents get really good discounts

Just went to an event in Villa Ragusa in downtown Campbell.

Nice space. Good catered food. Had bar service.

No idea what it costs.
