Hear from Our Customers
You’re planning a wedding, anniversary, Sweet 16, or corporate event. The venue search alone is exhausting—comparing spaces, coordinating vendors, wondering if the hall can actually deliver what they promise in the photos.
Here’s what changes when you book with us. You get a space that transforms to match your vision, not a cookie-cutter room that looks like every other event. Professional coordination means someone’s actually managing the details on your event day, so you’re not texting vendors from the bathroom. Transparent pricing means you know what you’re paying upfront, without surprise fees showing up later.
Our venue handles 133 guests comfortably, with modern sound and lighting already built in. Catering’s available if you want it. Décor assistance if you need it. And because we’re also a dance studio, you can add custom choreography or lessons to make your celebration even more memorable. You’re not just renting a room—you’re booking an experience that actually works.
Ballroom Factory Dance Studio has served Suffolk County for years as both a professional dance studio and event venue. We’re not new to hosting celebrations—we’ve coordinated weddings, corporate events, milestone parties, and everything in between for families and businesses throughout Of The Branch, NY and the surrounding area.
Our instructors include competition-trained professionals who teach everything from Waltz to Salsa. That same attention to detail carries over to our hall rental services. When you book with us, you’re working with people who understand what makes an event run smoothly because we’ve done this hundreds of times.
Of The Branch residents appreciate that we’re local, accessible, and straightforward. No runaround. No overselling. Just a well-maintained venue with experienced staff who know how to make your event happen the way you pictured it.
First, you reach out and tell us about your event—date, guest count, what kind of celebration you’re planning. We’ll walk you through availability, pricing, and what’s included so you know exactly what you’re getting before you commit to anything.
Once you book, we assign an event coordinator who becomes your main point of contact. They’ll help you plan the layout, coordinate with any outside vendors you’re bringing in, and handle the logistics you don’t want to think about. If you need catering or décor assistance, we can arrange that too. If you want to add dance lessons or custom choreography for your wedding party, we’ll set that up.
On the day of your event, we handle setup, coordination, and breakdown. You show up, celebrate, and leave when you’re ready. No cleanup. No vendor management. No last-minute problem-solving. That’s what you’re paying us for—so you can actually enjoy the event you spent months planning.

When you rent our hall in Of The Branch, NY, you’re getting more than four walls and a floor. The space includes professional sound systems and advanced lighting that adjust to your event’s mood and theme. Ample parking means your guests aren’t circling the block or walking half a mile from overflow lots.
Event coordination is part of the package—not an upsell. Your coordinator manages vendor arrivals, timeline execution, and any issues that come up so you don’t have to. We offer catering services with customizable menus, or you can bring in your own vendors if you prefer. Décor assistance helps you transform the space into whatever vision you have, whether that’s elegant ballroom, rustic barn, or modern minimalist.
Suffolk County sees peak wedding and event season from late spring through early fall, with most couples booking 12-18 months out. That’s the reality here—venues fill up fast. If you’re planning a summer or fall event, you’ll want to lock in your date sooner rather than later. Winter months offer more flexibility and sometimes better availability if your timeline allows it.
For weddings and large events during peak season—May through October—you’re looking at 12 to 18 months in advance. That’s not us being difficult. That’s just how Suffolk County venues book, especially for Saturday events.
If you’re planning something in the off-season or on a Friday or Sunday, you’ll have more flexibility. We’ve accommodated events with just a few months’ notice when the calendar allows it. Corporate events and smaller celebrations tend to have shorter lead times since they’re often more flexible on dates.
The honest answer is to reach out as soon as you have a date in mind. We’ll tell you what’s available and what your options are. If your first choice is already booked, we can often suggest alternative dates that work just as well.
Our hall comfortably accommodates between 123 and 133 guests, which aligns with the average wedding party size in New York. That’s enough space for a full celebration without feeling cramped, but intimate enough that it doesn’t feel empty if your guest list is smaller.
The space is flexible, so we can adjust the layout based on your needs. Seated dinner with dance floor? We’ve done it. Cocktail-style reception with lounge areas? That works too. Corporate presentation with seating and AV setup? No problem.
If your guest count is significantly smaller or larger, let us know during your initial consultation. We’ll be upfront about whether our space is the right fit for your event or if you’d be better served looking at a different venue. We’d rather be honest up front than have you book something that doesn’t work for your celebration.
Yes, we offer catering services with customizable menus. Our team can create everything from formal plated dinners to buffet-style service to cocktail hour appetizers, depending on what fits your event and budget.
You’re not locked into our catering if you have another vendor you prefer. We allow outside catering, though we’ll need to coordinate with them ahead of time to make sure everything runs smoothly on event day. Some venues restrict outside vendors to push their preferred partners—we don’t do that.
During your planning consultation, we’ll walk through menu options, dietary accommodations, and service style. If you want a tasting before you finalize anything, we can arrange that. The goal is to make sure the food matches the quality of the rest of your event, not just check a box that says “catering provided.”
We’re a dance studio first, which means two things. One, our space is designed for movement and celebration—the floors, the acoustics, the layout all support that. Two, we can offer something most catering halls can’t: professional dance instruction and custom choreography as part of your event package.
Want your wedding party to learn a surprise dance for the reception? We’ll teach it. Need your team to learn basic steps before your corporate gala? We’ll run a session. Planning a Sweet 16 with a choreographed entrance? We’ve got instructors who specialize in that.
Beyond the dance element, we focus on personalized coordination rather than assembly-line events. You’re not booking a time slot in a venue that’s flipping three events a day. We limit our bookings so each event gets the attention it deserves. That’s the difference—you’re working with people who care about your specific celebration, not just filling the calendar.
Pricing depends on your event date, guest count, and what services you need beyond the basic venue rental. We offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees, so you’ll know the full cost during your initial consultation—not after you’ve already committed.
Suffolk County has higher rental rates than the state average, which reflects the area’s demand and the quality of venues available. You’re not going to find rock-bottom pricing here, and honestly, you shouldn’t want to. Cheap venues cut corners somewhere—whether that’s outdated facilities, inexperienced staff, or surprise fees that show up later.
What we can tell you is that our pricing is competitive for what you’re getting: professional coordination, modern facilities, flexible services, and a team that’s done this hundreds of times. We’ll work with your budget to maximize what’s possible, but we won’t promise things we can’t deliver just to close the booking.
Absolutely. We encourage it, actually. You should see the space in person before you commit to anything—photos only tell you so much.
Reach out to schedule a tour, and we’ll walk you through the venue, show you how the space can be configured for different event types, and answer any questions you have on the spot. You’ll meet the team, see the facilities, check out the parking situation, and get a real sense of whether this is the right fit for your celebration.
Most people who tour the space have a pretty clear sense afterward whether it’s what they’re looking for. If it’s not the right match, we’d rather you know that before booking than be disappointed later. And if it is the right fit, you’ll book with confidence knowing exactly what you’re getting.
