I booked a 7:15pm at Crystal Palace on a haloween party night (Sept 16). Usually the confirmation screen says if I need a ticket or not but this one didn't have that disclaimer. Am I Ok without a Halloween party ticket and how quick will I be escorted out the park once dinner is over.
 
Sorry, I don't think this will work if you don't have a party ticket. I did a search for the same date and time, and it shows that regular dinner reservations are only through 6:30pm and the "special ticketed event" reservations start at 7pm. On the reservation confirmation page it also has the full warning, "You are making a reservation during an event which requires the purchase of a separately priced event admission ticket (e.g., Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party). Guests with theme park admission must purchase the special event admission ticket to enter or remain in park during the special event. Note: The number of tickets available is limited for special events. Events may sell out early. Special event tickets are valid only during specific event dates and hours. Tickets are nontransferable and nonrefundable."

When I tried to book CRT at like 9:20 I got that warning. For this reservation there was no warning. There was a 7pm one with no warning as well


Never mind just read the email confirmation and the warning was there . I swear it wasn't on the page when I confirmed the reservation in the app.
 
Even if you did not see a warning I doubt that you would be okay. I think that the warning needs to be HUGE, because the times have changed this year, and unlike last season, you cannot make ADR's up to 6:55 any longer. That is a change some people would have no way of knowing if they were used to staying in the pak the full day and enjoying their dinner just before park close.
 


On the Crystal Palace page on the WDW website, when you change the calendar to 9/16 it says:
September 16, 2016

Breakfast 8:00 AM - 10:45 AM

Lunch 11:30 AM - 2:45 PM

Dinner 3:15 PM - 6:30 PM

Dinner 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Special Ticketed Event

So, the last reservation for non-party ticket holders is 6:30.
 
As others have said, no, you won't be ok. You will be escorted out of the park by 7pm, before your ADR.
