By 40, a lot of guests haven't been on a dance floor since the last wedding, and a good 40th gives them a reason. In Newcastle that usually means picking the entertainment as carefully as the room, because the suppliers here travel to most venues across the city and Lake Macquarie.
On the music side, Avid Entertainment supplies open-format DJs and MC hosting, listed from $1,650. Jackson Broadway is a pop and rock covers duo, or trio with their backing band, that brings its own PA and lighting, from $1,500. Love Glows can hang canopies of fairy lights and spell out a name in glowing letters, from $429. Creative Booth and Photobooths Newcastle both offer 360 video booths.
For the room itself, Blackbutt Hotel in New Lambton has a function room for 150 with its own bar, dance floor and AV. Historic Dining Hall at The Crown & Anchor Hotel on Hunter Street seats 120 and holds a late-night licence for parties past midnight.
