Wedding Reception At The Moolah Ballroom In St Louis

Everyone loves to dance. Everyone but me. I just love watching other people do it. If you’re, however, unlike me and you’re interested in seeing some dance action at your wedding reception, then you’ll need a venue with adequate space for that. We’ve seen it all when it comes to event planning and venue selection, It’s what we do at Abelldjcompany.com, and in our professional opinion, The Moolah Ballroom – St Louis is the perfect facility for a large event with lots of dance action and here’s why we think so:

The Design

The room has ample space with conventional round tables for the family-type dinner. There is a lot of room between the tables, perfect for grabbing your partner by the waist and dancing to the sound of music played by the speakers mounted at different spots. The room also features a head table endowed with flowers and decorations to spur on the core feelings of the event – live.

Lighting

The Moolah Ballroom is a favorite because of its large room for dancing and its proper lighting. A ballroom shouldn’t be poorly lit, which is why there are numerous light sources in the room to increase the brightness and overall tone of the hall.

Conclusion

In summary, the Moolah Ballroom is just what you need if you’re planning on having a ballroom event, be it a wedding reception or a state dinner. The head table is perfect; the polished wooden floor is just what you need for a proper dance, and the lighting is superb. However, this facility comes with its peculiarities. The room is mainly designed as a ballroom, so it may not be able to accommodate a large audience and still deliver maximum returns to the dancing room. You should compromise between the dancing space and the dining room.
