I saw a lot of this with friends from college, as we've all graduated and have busy jobs/serious relationships, etc. My three closest girlfriends and I solved this by arranging "boyfriend playdates."
We go out on the weekends to bars that have pool tables (all our boyfriends/fiances are big pool players) or TVs with sports games on, etc, with a downstairs floor that has dancing for us, or a quieter area to talk, and then we can mix and mingle groups. Sometimes we'll go to someone's house for RockBand or Guitar Hero and card games. In the last six months, we've had more couples and singles join our group of going out, and there are now about 20 of us that mix it up.
I know this wouldn't work for everyone, but we got REALLY lucky, and its definitely a lot of fun having all your favorites together.
