We wanted the same type of ceremony and had our "reception"/ dinner at Zahav for 26. It was wonderful. The service was unmatched, and EVERYONE liked the food. Even my husbands aging uncle who is only about Italian. I couldn't recommend it highly enough. And the private room was reasonably priced. Definitely an unforgettable night.

It was reasonable because a) it was a BYO and b) we were in and out before they opened for regular dinner service. If your timing is flexible, try a BYO when it is usually closed.

I have friends of friends who rented out the second floor of Rembrandt's pretty inexpensively. Nice skyline views, room for a dance floor if you're so inclined and adjacent to a parking lot (yet still in the city). Farmicia also offered another couple friends o' mine a great deal for a rehearsal dinner. If too pricey, however, I'd stick to the more cozy BYO scene - like La Viola (West). I bet Porcini would also hook you up on a weekend night. Those brothers are the best. Congratulations!

Then blow all your cash on Frog Commissary catering. Can't one of your real-estate connections hook you up with a night in a vacant loft condo in CC?
