Expect 75-100 and want a venue somewhat near Macalester on Grand in St Paul. On a Friday but early, like 4:30-7:00pm. Good snacks, alcohol, or at least beer and wine. Restaurant, event space, whatever... Budget around $2500.00. Any suggestions? TIA- HappySnacker Fri Nov 06 12:49:48 -0800 2009 76918 happysnacker 1 5163387 You can rent one of the Mac houses on Summit and get the evening catered. I don't have the details -but I think the house is w/in a few blocks of snelling and grand. Shish would be a fun, local and affordable option. Maybe some additional snacks from the St Paul Cheese shop right on Grand? The Lexington has a party room which would work.
