Your daughter’s quinceañera is a magical day, marking her transition from being a child to becoming a woman. This is a once-in-a-lifetime event and she will be surrounded by many friends and family — of course you want the space to be just right. But, starting your search to find that perfect “banquet hall near me” doesn’t have to be stressful.
Finding a great venue for a large group can be challenging, especially if you’ve never had to do it before. What do you look for when you begin your search? What qualities do all great banquet halls share?
If you’re not sure, fear not! The event planners at The Event Center @iPA have a checklist of features you should look for in a potential quinceañera banquet hall (or any other occasion).
1. Spacious Banquet Hall Location
Between her friends and your family, your daughter’s quinceañera will likely have a pretty large guest list. It’s common for many quinceañeras to host between 100-250 guests. You want them all to be happy and comfortable enough to move around, mingle and dance. Keeping that in mind, it’s important to find a banquet hall that is capable of fitting all of your guests, while providing enough space for entertainment, catering and any special decorations you may have in mind.
2. Dance Floor
A quinceañera has many traditional elements: the classic father-daughter dance and the Court of Honor to the toast and other speeches from loved ones who know her best. Look for a banquet hall that features a dance floor or special elevated stage to take her experience to the next level.
3. Delicious Catering
Every party needs great food! If you want your planning process to be as seamless as possible (aka: stress-free), find a banquet hall that offers in-house catering services. This way you know you’ll be serving your guests the freshest options for hor d’oeuvres, entrees and desserts. In-house catering services eliminate one step in the already complicated coordination process.
4. Sound Check
When you have a room full of girls, of course you’ll need some music. Many quinceañera events feature a professional DJ or even a live band to provide great entertainment for guests. And when it comes to music, the best thing a banquet hall can provide is a state-of-the-art sound system!
