My wife and I got married in her parents back yard! We had about 20 people attend the actual ceremony then rented out our favorite restaurant for the reception that we invited about 100 people for which we had finger foods and an open bar.

Cost about $5k total.

Go do something chill at the National Arboretum or your favorite Memorial. Outdoors, informal. One of my favorite weddings ever was a barefoot beachside wedding in a state park, and then eating on picnic tables.

Would have to be very small. Cut costs on flowers, decorations, food, alcohol. Lots of DIY. Our photographer alone was $4-5k

I eloped at Holladay House Bed & Breakfast in Orange, VA for less than $2k. They allow very small weddings and it’s absolutely wonderful.

Yes. Used a military chapel and event center on base.

On base is a great idea because it’s tax free and often times the Officer’s Club will pay your vendors to save on taxes for those services too. Check out Fort Meyer and Fort Belvoir.

George Washington Masonic National Memorial. A little over 15k. 100 guest. We had our wedding and reception there. Beautiful historic building. Great parking and close to metro. Also paid extra for guest to go up to the tower. Our guest were impressed.

So many variables. How many people? Alcohol? Are you including photo and video into the price? What about the wedding bands?

I've had friends that pulled it off but they had to be very creative with the venue.

Thanks guys. Particularly seeking help to find a cheap venue to start because I already know the photographer we ideally want is crazy expensive.

Also, trying to be resourceful and potentially use bouquets as center pieces or combine name cards with favors etc.

Thinking about ~100 people and do plan on having alcohol

Appreciate any additional advice!

Lol I just gave a couple examples of things I was already planning on cutting and clearly the “etc” was overlooked.

Again, I welcome the advice but don’t need the projected negative energy. Many have simply given great ideas that I can use to make this work.

Anyone have slow months where you burn through a lot of your allotted pro bono/professional development hours to keep hitting minimum daily hours? The past few weeks have been like this for me. Should I be concerned (I.e., will this reflect poorly on me, come review time? Will I have dug myself too much of a hole if I keep burning my non-billable hours?) I’ve been asking partners if I can assist in any projects so I can fill my plate, but I’ve only gotten small (4-6 hour) tasks handed my way.

Went into a multi family property 50/50 with a relative against my gut. Things are going horrible. Need to get out. Best options? Buy him out? He invested maybe 4-5K in time (demolition work) and 2K in cash. I’ve managed the whole thing for 9 months. 10% of gross rents (as a management fee) would be about the same (6-7K)). Bought at low in market just after COVID hit. I want to keep the building. Seems fair to give him his initial investment back + some additional money for market gains. Help!
