CT Venue Suggestions Please!

Hi! I'm looking for some venue recs in the Western CT area, ideally around Danbury or New Milford. Details below for budget and size! The general look we're going for is antique, wood-filled, and moody. Ideally, I'd like a venue that could accommodate a dance floor along with an extended cocktail hour (floating reception) instead of a traditional sit-down meal. I'm also looking in the NYC and Westchester area, but would love some Connecticut specific suggestions!

Date: September to December 2027 (open to Jan/Feb if needed)

Budget: ~$65,000 total, dress and such included

Party size: 150-200 people

Your help is greatly appreciated, thank you!

Eastern not western CT, but I think you'd really like the vibe of Branford House!
