here is a place where you can do both the ceremony and the reception at the same location. it is sort of wild and rustic....lots of nature.

or you could do your ceremony at the lakeside community church http://lcreno.org/contact_weddings.php

and have the reception at butcher boys. they have a banquet facility upstairs. http://butcherboy.us/about/

the city of reno has lots of venues available too, including the reno events center and mckinely arts and culture center.

I recently did a wedding at a local church there with a reception at the Nugget. I see that you don't want a casino reception, but the room near the pool area is quite pretty.

I'd also consider:

--Hidden Valley Country Club

--The Grove

--D'Andrea Golf Course

--Nevada Museum of Art

Good Luck!
