All-inclusive Events come in two shapes & sizes. Full-sized, "Cocktail/Dinner/Dancing" events are available any day of the week. Smaller, "Meal/Conversation" events are only available Monday-Friday. Please use this comparison chart to help you figure out which style best suits your event.
Alcoholic Beverages: We like everyone to have a great time, but this is not the place for a drunk-fest. A couple of drinks to relax the evening? That's a fine idea. Bar set-up with professional bartending staff is included. You may choose a no-host bar where Charley’s will provide beer, wine, and liquor from your choice of several options, or a hosted bar where you provide the alcoholic beverages for their bartenders to serve. If you are providing your own alcohol the following limits apply: BEER & WINE: You may have one keg of beer for every 100 guests, with a 2 keg total limit. (Up to 4 cases worth may come as bottles.) Each keg serves 160, 12oz glasses. Wine & champagne are welcome in reasonable amounts, with each bottle of wine serving 4-5 glasses. You may also add up to 3 cases of pre-bottled beverages, such as Mike's Hard Lemonade, which is particularly popular during the hot season. CHAMPAGNE must be opened by Dance Street staff or the hired bartender. Bottles may not be placed on the tables. HARD LIQUOR is allowed, but no shots. A "SIGNATURE DRINK" is an excellent compromise if you don't want to provide a full hard liquor bar, but want more than beer and wine. This could be something like a rum & coke, a Mai Tai, or a Margarita on the rocks. If your are providing the alcohol for a hosted bar the ingredients for this drink should come pre-mixed except for the alcohol. This will make your bar line move much more smoothly. Consider providing fruit garnish or the little umbrellas if you're doing something tropical. Miscellaneous details - Guests are NOT allowed to bring in their own alcoholic beverages. You must provide adequate food in order to serve alcoholic beverages (not just a dessert reception.) Beverages, non-alcoholic: All the menus include punch, coffee, and ice water. You may choose to add upgrades of hot tea, hot cocoa, iced tea, and sodas if so desired. Children: Well-behaved children are a joy to have at celebrations, and welcome at the Dance Street Ballroom. The facility is, however, designed for adults with lots of glass, candles, and other opportunities for unattended children to cause damage. We expect parents and other adults to supervise any children in attendance and enforce good indoor manners. We love it when the kids dance and screech in delight, but if you want a place where they can run amok then please choose a different venue. Decorating: You're welcome to do additional decorating as long as it fits within your time slot, or you book more hours, but most people are happy to have us take care of this detail. In addition to our greenery, white lights and numerous candle sconces, we provide event-appropriate table centers that may include mirror squares, candles, balloons, lights, and/or color-coordinated fresh flowers. We decorate the dessert table, as well as the guest book table, bar, and punch table, while Charley's Catering always decorates their buffet tables with great panache. We do not allow additional candles unless they are fully contained in one-piece holders, with the flame at least 1 full inch below the top of the holder. (Wax on our dance floor is a major hazard, and this is a very necessary precaution.) Balloons are allowed only if they are tied down - free-floaters are a hazard with the wall sconces. Food: This is a key element to any event, and one of the few particular details anyone remembers is whether or not they ate well. We've collaborated with Charley's Catering to provide you with a selection of menus to choose from and customize as you wish. High quality, disposable dishes are included. If you wish to upgrade to china, flatware, and glassware we will be happy to make such arrangements for you. GREEN DISPOSABLES - There are now a lot of disposable dishes out there made of cornstarch, potato starch, or sugarcane. Plates, forks, cups, & to-go containers are all available from a variety of companies. While they're more expensive than standard disposables, we've found them to be very sturdy, better in fact than the usual disposables. Besides being biodegradable (moot point since Spokane burns its garbage) they are made without any petroleum products in the first place, which is a good thing. Charley's offers a "green disposables option" for an additional $1 per person. Hours & Time: Your time block is all inclusive and must allow for any extra decorating. Full-sized events can choose any 4.5-hour party block between 11am and 11pm. Smaller events can choose any 3 hour party block between 11am and 9pm, Monday-Friday. Event organizers may arrive up to 1 hour before the party to put out any extra decorations or arrange any welcoming tables. Music: Dinner music is included with both packages. Dance music is also included with the Full-size package. If you have particular songs you'd like us to play you are welcome to bring a cd for us to work from. Reservations: A $1000 initial payment will secure your date with us and is non-refundable. This is applied to your total bill. The final payment and $500 damage/overtime deposit are due at least 15 days before your event. There's an additional $200 damage deposit for chocolate fountains. Seating - We will seat 8 at a table for up to 175 guests. For groups larger than that the room will be arranged cocktail-style, with some round tables for seating and some taller cocktail tables for perching with your beverage. Smoking: Dance Street is, and always has been, a non-smoking facility. Smoking is permitted outdoors, 25 feet away from any entrance, as per the Washington Clean Indoor Air Act. Please remember that smoking directly outside the doors is pointless - it still comes straight back inside the facility. We appreciate it when you encourage your smoking friends and family to be considerate in this matter. Location and
Directions Dance Street is located 1/2 block east of the
Spokane Arena, on the block of Dean Ave. between Howard and
Washington streets, one block south of Boone Ave., and two blocks
north of the Spokane River. Dean is the street on the "studio
theater" side of the Civic Theater. We are directly south of the
Arena's auxiliary parking lot. Hunter's veterinary clinic is on
the corner of Washington and Dean. The easiest approach is to turn
onto Dean off of Washington. |
