"Cheap" is such a harsh word, but I did my search engine research and that's what people are looking for, so I apologize. Let's call these affordable NJ wedding venues, which is much more forgiving. 

Fiesta in East Rutherford. I attended a wedding for a coworker here, and it was very nice. I remember that there was a decent bar area where a group of us had opted to hang out during the Celine Dion segment of the evening (sorry, not everybody likes Celine!)

David's Country Inn in Hackettstown. My roommate from college had her wedding reception here sometime in the fall. The atmosphere was rustic and charming, an old-world feel with a cozy fireplace in every room. I don't know if they've redone the place since then, but I do remember that the ambiance was superb.

Somerville Elks Club in Bridgewater, NJ. This is where we had our wedding ceremony and reception in one. A lot of guests didn't know what to expect when they heard "Elks." But this was a really fine place to host a wedding, just as good as any of the well-known NJ wedding venues.

The Manor in West Orange. As far as I know, I've never attended a wedding here. But it came up in a search for budget weddings in NJ, so I included it in the list. I've also heard the name on more than one occasion, and the website looks great.

Essex Manor in Bloomfield. This is another name that comes up frequently during NJ wedding chatter. I don't believe I've attended a wedding here, but on the website they describe themselves as "affordable elegance" so that pretty much says it all in my estimation.
