Try dignitymemorial.com. Their website states that "Honoring a friend or family member with a celebration of life is a profound expression of love. Dignity Memorial® planners are celebration of life experts. We plan more celebrations each year than any other provider, and we know just what to do to create a uniquely beautiful and heartfelt tribute.". From the looks of it they are a funeral home, so there would of course be costs involved. Might be worth a call though: (352) 643-6770.
If you are looking for something more informal (and cheaper, probably) try one of the rec centers near the village where your father lived. Most have rooms that are let out for just such things: birthdays, wedding anniversaries, etc. The rec. centers may also have ideas as to caterers, costs, invitations, etc. as well.
