Personally, I can see you are working small even if $5 grand is a lot of money it sure can get chewed up by a wedding.
You might want to consider something a little different. Rent a bar for an afternoon. On the east side, I think on Charlevoix, there is a place called the Texas Bar … they could set you up.
Another bar that has a very nice garden is the Old Miami on Cass at Alexandrine.

Bars are usually slow in the afternoon and would be very interested in a $3,000 afternoon.
The Wedding-Industrial Complex is designed to vaccum money from your pocket.
Another idea would be to use the $4 grand for a down payment on a home and spend the remaining grand on a wonderful BBQ in the backyard.
good luck
