Wedding Reception Style: Should I Keep The Carpet Or Splurge On A Dance Floor?

Q:

Is it worth paying for a dance floor or is carpet good enough?

A:

Great question. Nothing says "party" like a dance floor. Carpet can work in a pinch, but it's hard to bust a move on shag—especially in a pair of heels. We'd suggest making room in your budget for a dance floor, so guests have a designated area to break it down all night long. No extra room in the budget? Head to your local hardware store for plywood and paint, and you have a new DIY project on your hands.
