There were velvet ropes marking off the areas the guests were not permitted into, but there were wards as well - not everyone could be trusted, after all. They'd bend for family, but none of the Malfoys were interested in having the common rabble prowling about their personal spaces.
The atrium, courtyard, ballroom, front entertainment area, and a small stretch of the grounds were open for guests, and each area had at least two elaborate containers to collect donations.
Two house elves and a hired witch were standing by the door to collect wands as people entered; wands would be returned as each person left the premises and not before.
The area sparkled and shone, each room bearing house colors - though if one were to observe carefully, there was a bit more silver and green - and a bit less red and gold. Not that they were stating their prejudices or anything ... that was simply how the decorations had come out. Honestly.
Astoria was dressed in her finest, her public smile well settled onto her lips and - for the most part - in her eyes as well. Libra had been sulking and tantruming that morning, though Astoria had no idea what over. The girl looked fine now, dressed in her emerald and silver robes with the matching jewelry her father had so recently purchased for her. Trusting that the girl would behave, Astoria turned her attention away to wait for their guests to arrive.
