Celebrating in Lakeview
Where Lakeview hosts use dance floors & staging
Lakeview is a neighborhood of two-flats, three-flats and greystones, many with a small backyard and a garage off the alley. That layout makes for great summer parties, from milestone birthdays to graduation open houses, but it also means chairs arrive through the garage or a side gangway rather than a front door.
Two-flat and three-flat backyards
Compact yards behind multi-unit buildings, typically accessed from the alley or a gangway.
Dance floors & staging here: A dance floor on grass needs a level subfloor first, which adds to the price. A patio or driveway is often the cheapest base.
Rooftop decks
Common on condo buildings and renovated homes, with lake breezes and limited square footage.
Dance floors & staging here: Rooftop decks need weight and drainage checks before a floor goes down. Smaller interlocking panels are easier to bring up.
Neighborhood church halls
Parish and congregation halls that host receptions, showers and community celebrations.
Dance floors & staging here: Most halls already have a hard floor; rent a white or black floor only for the look, or a small stage for the band.
Rented bar and restaurant spaces
Private rooms along Southport and Broadway used for birthdays and rehearsal dinners.
Dance floors & staging here: Check the venue's floor plan for a built-in dance area. Many lofts need a rented floor to protect concrete or carpet.
Delivery notes for Lakeview
- Shared yards in multi-unit buildings may need a heads-up to neighbors. Let them know when chairs will arrive and be picked up.
- Check the Cubs schedule for your date. Game days around Wrigley Field mean heavy traffic and parking restrictions, so we'll plan delivery around them.
How to plan
Getting dance floor rentals right
- 01
Who dances
Assume 30-50% of guests are on the floor at peak.
- 02
Square footage
Give each dancer about 3-4.5 sq ft: 15x15 for 150 guests, 18x18 for 200+.
- 03
Stage
A 8x12 to 12x16 stage at 16-24" high fits a band; DJs usually need only a table.
