Lincoln graduation parties stack up in a short spring window, so rooms that work for a mixed-age crowd (grandparents through classmates) go first. Ask about an afternoon versus evening rate, whether you can bring a dessert, and how early the space can be yours for setup. Send the date and a headcount range to two or three venues on this list.
