Between two wedding venues: in budget yet gaudy vs. expensive yet rustic

We are currently between two venues. One is within price range however the aesthetic of the reception is really not my style. It is super glam with a lot of gold throughout and chiavari chairs (which we can swap out). I find that the glam looks tacky and a lot of the pre-existing decorations can not be removed. Another site, which is $7K more has the more woodsy feel and neutral color palette. The downside is they have a ridiculous pricing system where everything is charged for (i.e. $1,000 for tablecloths, $100 per heater vs. $50-75 I have seen at most places). They also tack on a $5K service charge in addition to the industry standard of 22% for the service fee. Both are all inclusive. What would you choose? Should I just suck it up for the glam one? Very tired of venue shopping Smiley sad

    I’m loving the glam place too. So much you can do with that especially after swapping out the chairs.
