It depends on how many come. A group of us from the Austin area got together a few years ago and went " nursery crawling." We met at one nursery, then caravaned to Whole Foods. We parked in the underground garage so,our plants would stay cool. Had lunch there and then went to my house to drop off our plants before heading out to another couple of nurseries. Back again here for drinks and dessert. I think there were about twelve.
Anymore than that, you should find a spot to have it and let everyone help pay for the rental.
