75th Birthday

My mom’s turning 75 later in the year and I want to organize something special for her with a group of people. I’m looking for something along the lines of renting an event space at a restaurant, chartering a boat for the day - that kind of thing.

I don’t have specifics on the amount of people yet, as I’d rather pick the “special event” and then decide on how many to invite. Same for time of day.

Looking for both ideas & also actual recommendations (or places to avoid) based on real experience.

As for budget….it would be ideal to keep it under $1k but would consider ideas/recommendations up to $3k. Obvii being economical is best, so if you have a suggestion that is somehow only $50, please share it 😅 not over here tryna flex by having my “budget” be 1k. Just trying to be open to what’s out there & be realistic that sh!t costs $$$$$$

Thank you!
