American Adventure Rotunda

[rrali33tt]

I have read that you need to have 100 guests in order to have an event at the American Adventure Rotunda. It even says this on the Disney Event Group website. (It also says if you have less than 100 guests you will be moved to an alternate location).

Does anyone know if they allow a wedding reception to be held there if you have less than 100 guests (like 80-100)? Will they work around the 100 guests (say you spend more money on food per guest if under 100 guests etc.)

I've read they are pretty strict on this rule and won't let you book it unless you guarantee 100 people (and will move you if your guest list shrinks).

This. Unless you have at least 100 people, they will move you.

We are having our reception there and they are very strict that we had to guarantee 100 people.

They are very strict on the 100 guests. We thought we were going to have 75 confirmed and offered to pay a higher amount because we love the venue so much.

We were of course denied. But it worked out for the best. We ended up with only 39 confirmed guests. We ended up at Atlantic Dance Hall, and we would not have changed a thing.

The best part is that when we went to Epcot later that week with some guests who were still around and we told them of our plans, they said they were glad we didn't do it there - it would not have been as much fun.

hmmm I had been wondering if had 90 guests that I could just pay for the additional 10 people, but I guess not. Oh well.

I am curious as to why your guests said that if the reception was held at AAR that it would not have been as much fun, do you know why? (ADH is my 2nd choice as well)

It's a minimum of 100 up to 230.

They felt that it would have been too "regal", meaning too stuffy. ADH has much more of a "party" feel, and that's what we were going for.
