My issue isn't a wide angle lens, it's that if I'm shooting with a 23 f2 for instance, sometimes the camera will focus really well on one person but then the two people on the sides are blurry (possibly because they are on a slightly different plain. As you can see I'm still learning but I'm really trying not to F up this party this weekend

Just stop down a little, it will help. Your camera can certainly handle the high ISOs. I maintain that the f4 of your 18-55 would also be fine, if you don't shoot too close to your human subjects.
