hey adam...

Matt from The Lake Effect in Buffalo.  I think
amplification needs vary depending on the group.
We're slightly larger than you are (7 members) and for
the "group" sound, we actually have a pair of
condenser mics in addition to a solo and perc mic.
These run into a 6 input amp that has "phantom" power
capabilities to power the condenser mics.  We then
have 2 decent sized speakers but I'd have to go look
at them to check their wattage.

I would recommend a 6 input, phantom power-capable amp
for most groups.  Yours in particular would benefit
because then each member can have his/her own mic.  I
don't know if you have a "Guitar Center" in your area,
but that's where we got our setup (it also helped that
a former member of the group was a local music teacher
and got a professional's discount when we purchased
it).  It ran us around $1,000 for the setup and we
still need to purchase a couple more mic stands and
some other things.

Hope that helps!

Happy Harmony!
Matt, the lake effect
