So maybe your plans to get married at the Plaza Hotel didn't go as plan. Don't fret, in this economy, it's definitely not your fault. Feel free to also blame the post-Carrie Bradshaw world that we're living, disguised as a false advertisement. In that world, you too can be a columnist and afford a million dollar shoe collection.
However, there is a solution for this wedding season dilemma. As part Racked's top seven wedding venues, Housing Works Bookstore Cafe, the philantropical epicenter for books that helps aids in HIV/AIDS and homelessness causes, can become a wedding venue for the savvy couple who want to save cash for their honeymoon.
At a reasonable range (by Manhattan wedding venue standards) of $155 to $235 including tax per person, the service includes open bar, catering and staff. The place also sets to accommodate a sizeable 250 guests.
Sounds like an a great alternative way to celebrate your big day. You will also feel great about when you know that all proceeds from the wedding rental will benefit the homeless who battle with HIV/AIDS.
