Wedding Reception

My fiance and I are 28/30 yrs of age. We live in St.Louis Missouri and plan to wed this year. After fully planning our wedding we discovered the cost was too expensive at around 7-10 thousand dollars. I am really struggling.. Help!!
We belong to the UCC church and do plan to wed in church. My dilema is the reception. I want to keep the reception cost down. My ideas have been to get married on Friday pm and have appetizers, some alcohol, and a dj. But, this is still very expensive.
Other ideas have been maybe a brunch on a Saturday. But, the only problem is no fun with music or drink. Another idea was in the basement of the church. But, again no music or dj.
If you have any ideas that would help me,. Please help!!! thank you so much
