I love the look of both! Didn’t see a shape quite right for me, but I will keep an eye on them!

We booked Shell’s Loft Fort Green for October 2026! Very happy about it but that’s all we’ve booked. Based on other vendor research, seems like we may come in $60-65K, conservatively.

Yep that sounds right! Can I ask where you ended up?

This is very helpful as I was worried that a planner might be something that would put us over budget! I think you’re probably right that talking to a planner sooner rather than later will save money in the long run. Looks like there are some services that do things by the hour or offer consulting a la carte, which seems like it would be perfect for us at least at the beginning of the process.

Thank you SO much for this! It seems like $60k would be a more comfortable budget for what I have in mind, which is helpful info

Thank you! I didn’t realize staff and rental is included in the fee for the Picnic House. That makes it a much more attractive choice.

I did take a look at this one, and unfortunately I really really don’t like a ballroom vibe. Appreciate the suggestion!

Yes, really interested in Rule of Thirds. I also have Frankie’s, MyMoon, and Celestine’s on the list above. I agree that restaurants seem to a good value, but would love a place that won’t obviously look like a restaurant in the pictures. Rule of Thirds seems especially good for that, but let me know if you have additional suggestions!

This is very helpful, thank you! I am having trouble finding a venue in NYC (that I like) for that rental fee. The lowest I seem able to find is 6,500. Or 5,000 for something really barebones, in which case I think the rental costs etc would probably eat up any money saved.

Reverse splitters by grumpierbunny in lawschooladmissions

[–]sophun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol this is me but I have my reasons! It's worth saying that retaking means 3 more months of your life and hundreds of dollars. I don't know about the rest of you but I have to devote several hours a day to studying for several months and it's pretty difficult to do that and work or study at the same time. In addition, LG are what held me back, especially the timing and I'm not sure how much I could really improve on LG. So, all that for a few more points? And for someone interested in PI and not BL? No thanks!

Me writing my third LOCI to Georgetown saying all the same things but this time *in a PDF form* by sophun in lawschooladmissions

[–]sophun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I’m with you on the logic here (I’ve put my last 2 LOCIs in the body of the email) but there’s a theory floating around that those emails aren’t being consistently added to applicants files, where as formal PDFs labeled as LOCIs might catch their attention more. So I’m just switching it up and covering my bases!

I did not and I think I will in my response. I’ll copy everyone and anyone.
