Reception Ideas

Hi Ladies, I'm looking for ideas for our reception, but I'm feeling uninspired. Hoping some of you will have ideas to get me out of my funk.

Our wedding is in the Dominica Republic on December 1, 2011.  Turns out there only about 12 people going, which is kind of disappointing, since we hadn't planned to have an at-home reception, but are now feeling like we should so that everyone has a chance to celebrate with us.

I'm thinking it will be mid-January, after the holidays.  Neither FH or I really enjoy being the centre of attention, so I was hoping for something informal, not in a hall, no sit down dinner, just hor d'oeuves, drinks and dancing.  A very open house feel.

The problem is that in Ontario, it's snowy and cold as hell in January.  An outside, casual bakyard kind of even would be perfect, but due to the time of year, I'm hoping to replicate that kind of feel indoors.  A hall doesn't really lend itself to that very well.

Does anyone have any ideas as to where to hold an event like this?  I'm running out of motivation.  Thanks!
