# During davening it is integral to have a mechitza to separate between men and women.<ref>Ishei Yisrael 28:9</ref> However, there is no need for a mechitza to separate between men and women for non-mitzvot activities such as a mundane meal.<ref>Rav Moshe Feinstein in Igrot Moshe 1:41 cites the Pesachim 86b that speaks about a bride eating a korban pesach together with the rest of the group which would consist of several families and up to 50 or 100 people.
