One of our niches is to provide a warm, welcoming space while still allowing you great flexibility when choosing your other vendors.  Our venue-only rental option allows you to book almost any other vendor that you choose for your photographer/caterer/DJ/cake maker/florist etc.  We provide the beautifully decorated space, set up and ready for revelry! 

Whether you choose the Package or our ala carte Venue-only Option we always include. . .  

•  Tables & Chairs, Table Linens in black, white, or champagne rose (ivory), and all Service Tables
•  Centerpieces of mirror squares, candles, & fresh flowers that are coordinated to your colors
•  A four-hour party - just right for most groups!
•  Candle sconces & window-well candelabras - we glimmer with about 100 candles per wedding
•  White twinkle lights around the dance floor, up the back walls, and on the entryway arch
•  Accessory bouquets of fresh flowers for the punch table, bar, & guest book table, and candles & scattered  
    flower petals on the cake table
•  We're also happy to put out your personal touches such as favors and photo displays although we are not a
    "decorate it yourself" kind of place. 
•  Hardwood dance floor as big as your dreams!
•  Projector and DVD player for slideshows (with an equipment operator)
•  Bridal dressing room
•  Set up, take down, & facility cleaning - you only take care of your leftovers and gifts!

Even when you are choosing your own vendors, or perhaps especially then, it is helpful to have recommendations.  This link will take you to our page for Preferred Caterers and DJs, professionals who we absolutely trust to take great care of you and your event!

CEREMONIES with RECEPTIONS:  Our capacity for a ceremony and reception is a cozy 175 with reception-style seating.  Up to 120 is very comfortable and spacious.  You might also consider holding a smaller ceremony for immediate family and your closest friends (up to 40 or so), then inviting a larger crowd to enjoy the reception. 

Events of more than 60 guests must be seated reception-style with guests already at their tables.  A few chairs can be placed in rows up close for parents and grandparents in this setting.  Smaller events of 60 or less can have row seating if they like, with the tables set up off to the sides.  These arrangements allow us to provide a very quick and smooth transition to your reception.

Holding both your ceremony and reception here gives you an 8 hour total time-block the day of your wedding.  This generally breaks down to 1/2 hr. to get dressed, 2 hrs. for pictures, 1/2 hr. to hide while guests arrive, 4 hrs. for the main event, and 1 hr. to pack up your gifts & leftovers & say goodbye.  You also get a 1 hour rehearsal the day or two before your wedding, depending on our dance schedule and other events.

We provide ceremony accessories to set the stage, including a black iron arch, candelabras, vases of flowers coordinated to your colors, and a unity table if so desired.  You're welcome to decorate the arch with fabric or a greenery swag to match your colors.

Rehearsal and ceremony coordination are part of our facilitation services when you choose to hold your ceremony at the Dance Street Ballroom.  We help everyone know where to be and when to be there, and cue the appropriate people during the ceremony.  We'll even fluff the train of your dress right before you walk down the aisle.

Plan on arriving with your hair and make-up already done, and your bridal party refreshed.  Food and colored beverages are not allowed inside the bridal dressing room.  You'll understand why when you see it.

Live musicians are welcome for ceremonies, but please take into account how much space they'll need and whether you'll have it to spare.  If you're having a full-capacity ceremony of 175 you won't be able to fit in a string-quartet as well. 

If you plan on having a fairly small weekday event, without a separate rehearsal or a dancing reception, then talk to us and we may waive part of the ceremony fee.

In Spokane, wedding ceremonies at the same event venue as the wedding reception are becoming increasingly popular.  They help keep out of town guests from getting lost, and create less work and expense for you by giving you only one vendor to deal with and one space to add your special touches to.  At a non-church venue you can choose any officiant you want, from a beloved pastor to an ordained friend to a local judge.  Combined events also help infuse energy into your event by eliminating the down-time between the ceremony and the reception.

Wedding receptions at the Dance Street Ballroom are generally suited to couples who want a classy, welcoming, pretty place to have a great time with their family and friends.  We want to help you create wonderful memories of who celebrated with you, not of the exact shade of celadon in the centerpiece greenery.  If your decorations are the primary issue on your mind we are probably not the right venue for you.  If you are most concerned about who's coming, what they're going to eat, & whether the music will be fun then we are quite likely the right place for you! 

Keep in mind that who you choose for your wedding vendors can have a huge impact on your day.  Choose people who's work you appreciate and admire, but whom you also like.  You'll be working very closely with certain ones, including your hairdresser, photographer, DJ, caterer, and facility coordinator, and whether you like them or not will contribute to your overall feelings and memories of that day.  We hope you enjoy planning this once-in-a-lifetime event, and that you choose people who will help you build wonderful memories!
