Greetings all! I'm new here, so be gentle.
I am planning a very small wedding reception, only about 30 people. Six to ten of those people will be children. I'd like to have dancing be a possibility, but I am having a hard time justifying the expense of a band or a dj for such a small group and short party. I think 3 hours would be a huge overestimate for how long this thing is going to last.
Does anyone know of some place where there can be dancing that has a private dining room available? Or even just space for 30 people and no prohibition of children? Privacy isn't so important.
This is a second wedding for both of us and we really just want to have a party with our kids and close family, but I want us to dance at our wedding darn it!
Cost isn't too much of an issue, since the size of the wedding does most of the cost trimming for us. We are in the Novi/Northville area, but are willing to drive a bit since our guests are pretty scattered.
I am completely open to suggestions! I particularly love salsa dancing, Irish drinking songs and swing. I'm pretty easy to please.
