Willwood Dance Studio Venue
We’ve been Suffolk County’s premier dance studio and event venue for over 30 years, transforming celebrations into extraordinary experiences. Our facility combines the elegance of professional ballroom dancing with the versatility needed for private events of every size.
Located in the heart of Suffolk County, we understand what Willwood residents want from their celebrations—sophistication without stuffiness, professionalism without rigidity, and spaces that feel both elegant and welcoming.

Event Venue Rental Process
Planning your event starts with a conversation about your vision, guest count, and must-haves for your celebration. We’ll schedule a tour so you can see the space and envision your event, discussing layout options and how the venue can be customized for your specific needs.
Next, we work together to design your event package, selecting everything from lighting and sound systems to catering coordination and timeline management. Our event planners handle vendor coordination, setup logistics, and day-of execution, so you can focus on enjoying your celebration rather than managing details.
On event day, our team arrives early to transform the space according to your specifications. We coordinate with your other vendors, manage the timeline, and ensure everything runs smoothly from your guests’ arrival through the final farewell. After your event, we handle all breakdown and cleanup, so you can leave with nothing but great memories and maybe some leftover cake.

What types of events work best at your party venue in Willwood?
Our ballroom venue in Willwood, NY works beautifully for wedding receptions, anniversary celebrations, birthday parties, corporate events, retirement parties, and milestone celebrations. The space is particularly well-suited for events where dancing will be part of the celebration, thanks to our professional-grade dance floors and sound systems.
We’ve hosted intimate dinner parties for 25 guests and lively celebrations for 150, with flexible layout options that work for cocktail receptions, seated dinners, or dance-focused events. The elegant ballroom atmosphere elevates formal occasions while remaining welcoming enough for casual celebrations.
What makes our venue unique is the option to incorporate dance instruction or performances into your event.

How far in advance should I book your party venue?
For most events, booking 3-6 months in advance gives you the best selection of dates and ensures we can fully customize the space and services for your celebration. Wedding receptions and major milestone celebrations during peak season (May through October) should be booked 6-12 months ahead, as these dates fill up quickly in Suffolk County.
Corporate events and smaller celebrations often have more flexibility, and we can sometimes accommodate shorter timelines, especially during off-peak months. However, earlier booking allows more time for planning details like custom lighting, specialized vendor coordination, and any dance instruction elements you might want to include.
If you have a specific date in mind, call us as soon as possible. Even if your timeline is shorter, we’ll work with you to create a memorable event. Our experienced event coordinators are skilled at pulling together beautiful celebrations efficiently when needed, though more planning time always allows for more customization options.

Our event coordination team works with you from initial planning through event day execution, handling logistics so you can enjoy your celebration.

Can you accommodate both dining and dancing at the same event?
Absolutely. Our ballroom venue in Willwood is specifically designed to accommodate both elegant dining and dancing within the same event. The space features flexible layout options that allow for seated dinner service followed by dancing, or cocktail reception style events with dancing throughout the evening.

The sound system is designed to work well for both background music during dinner and dance music later in the evening.

If you want to include special dance elements—like a choreographed first dance, dance lessons for guests, or surprise performances—we can coordinate these seamlessly into your event timeline.

The venue itself features professional-grade dance floors, state-of-the-art sound systems, and adjustable lighting designed specifically for both dining and dancing.

Do you work with outside vendors or provide catering services?
We work with a carefully selected network of trusted local vendors throughout Suffolk County, including caterers, photographers, florists, and entertainment providers. Our event coordinators can connect you with vendors we’ve worked with successfully for years, or we can coordinate with vendors you’ve already chosen.
This approach gives you the flexibility to select vendors that match your style and budget while ensuring everyone works together smoothly. Our event coordination team manages all vendor communications, timeline coordination, and day-of logistics, so you don’t have to juggle multiple contacts or worry about whether everyone is on the same page.
We don’t provide catering directly, but we work closely with caterers to ensure they have everything needed for successful service in our venue. Our event coordinators understand the logistics of different service styles, from plated dinners to cocktail receptions, and can advise on what works best for your specific event size and format. This collaborative approach typically results in better service and more cohesive events than trying to coordinate everything yourself.
