Atlantic Dance Hall Brides . . .

[princesslisa]

Hi,

I was wandering if the Atlantic Dance Hall was "bright" during your wedding. If the the reception ends around 8pm, does the sun shine through the whole time? I find that it would feel funny to be at a dance hall/club that wasn't dark and have that "vibe." Is there curtains you can close to give that feel?? I have been looking at pics of peoples receptions , and while they are Extremely beautiful, I was just wandering how the atmosphere really is.

This brings me to my next question . . .

About the only thing I am certain on (2007 bride ) is that I want an open bar. If the wedding is in the afternoon, do you think people will drink as much as they would at a night wedding? I know this question sounds a bit glib, but I just want to make th most of my day and for everyone to have a blast!

thx
lisa

Our reception started at 3:30 in June, so yes, there was light streaming through the windows the entire time. There are black out curtains you can close if you want - I think they are on both the upper and lower level, but they are on the lower level for sure.

We did a package bar with Disney, so I dont know how much our guests actually drank, but generally guests at afternoon weddings drink less than guests at evening weddings.

Our prereception started at 4 and the reception started at 5. It had to end by 8 so they could clean up and open to the public by 9. (although we were allowed to stay and watch the epcot fireworks from the upstairs balcony). I was worried about the brightness...my centerpieces were tealites and I wondered if they would be a waste. Honestly, now I don't have a clear recollection if it was bright...but I also don't remember thinking it was too bright. The dance floor always seemed dark enough. I thought it was perfect...we still do

To tinkerbela - what type of food did you serve at your reception - did you have brunch or lunch? I would love to do a brunch there but was wondering what the cost of a brunch would be and what type of food they would serve?
