Planning a private party in Carrollton takes more than a guest list and a good playlist. You need a space that fits your crowd, a team that handles the details, and a setup that lets you actually enjoy the celebration. At Dallas Palms, that is exactly what we offer, across three distinct ballrooms, lush outdoor gardens, and a service approach that covers everything from centerpieces to catering.
Whether you are hosting an intimate gathering of 80 or a blowout celebration for 500, our spaces adapt to fit the moment.
Private Party Spaces That Work for Any Guest Count
Finding the right room changes everything about how a party feels. A space that is too large leaves guests spread thin. One that is too small makes the night feel rushed. We have three ballrooms on site, each with its own personality, so you can match the space to your crowd.
The Malibu Ballroom for Intimate Gatherings
The Malibu Ballroom seats up to 120 guests and comes with two staircases and a central chandelier that give the room a grand feel even at smaller counts. Pair it with the Malibu Garden, an oasis-style outdoor area of roughly 4,000 square feet with a ceremony arch, water feature, and a string light ceiling overhead, and your guests have a complete evening without leaving the property. The garden holds around 100 guests for a cocktail or reception setup.
The Melrose Ballroom for Mid-Size Events
Step up to the Melrose Ballroom for parties up to 170 guests. The central staircase is a natural focal point, and the ballroom opens directly to a covered patio and garden. The Melrose Garden spans about 5,000 square feet, with two pergolas wrapped in string lights that work beautifully for American multicultural events, corporate gatherings, and private parties of all kinds. This space also works well for Desi family gatherings and social events, Indian and Pakistani wedding celebrations, and Nepali weddings and cultural events, where guests appreciate the flow between indoor and outdoor areas.
The Bel Air Ballroom for Large-Scale Celebrations
When your party grows to 500 guests, the Bel Air Ballroom handles it with room to spare. Mezzanines on both sides give the room visual depth, and the adjacent Bel Air Garden adds another 10,000 square feet of outdoor space. The garden includes an upper ceremony area with an arbor and water feature, plus a lower level with turf, a waterfall, and a lounge and fire pit area. That combination works well for Nigerian events, ceremonies, and community functions, as well as Hispanic weddings, parties, and cultural festivals that call for room to dance, gather, and celebrate late into the evening.
What Comes With Your Booking
Every ballroom rental includes 60″ round tables, Chiavari chairs, linens in black, ivory, or white, matching napkins, buffet tables, one room attendant, bridal and groom suites with two hours of access before the event, a one-hour rehearsal, and a design consultation to plan your room layout. Setup and teardown are handled by our team. Uplighting and ambience lighting come with the room. You are not starting from a bare shell.
Food and Bar at Private Parties
Our in-house kitchen covers a wide range of cuisines, with menu options that include vegetarian, vegan, and dietary accommodations. Prefer to bring your own food? We provide cutlery and waitstaff for a charge when clients bring outside catering. You can also furnish your own alcohol, and we supply the bartender and security. No food and beverage minimums means you are not locked into spending a set amount before your party begins.
