Default Getting married in 11 months....

Hi Y'all,
My name is Megan and I am new to the forum and just from reading some of the dated and recent posts I can tell this is going to be extremely helpful. My fiance and I are getting married on August 15, 2009 at San Jose del Cabo Catholic Church. I have absolutely no idea where to do the reception though. We thought about the Riu or Pueblo Bonito Rose, but it says the packages at PBR start at like 150/person. Some of my family will only stay at an all inclusive and I am expecting around 55-60 people. Does anyone know if those can be worked into a la carte or to suit our budget. We are really trying to keep everything under 8K for the reception/flowers/ cake, because we are paying for it ourselves. Our parents are older and since we are both much younger than all of our siblings, we don't want to ask our parents for the money.
If anyone has any suggestions, I am all ears and extremely grateful! Congratulations to everyone on their upcoming nuptials!

-Megan
