We did it at my mom's house which is very party-friendly. Rented tents/table, catered, hired servers, etc. I believe we kept it under $3K. Our parents helped out here and there (picked up some alcohol/desserts, etc.) We had under 100 guests (just family).

We had it at home in our backyard. It was a dual baptism as my newphew was baptised with my ds. I cooked some food, and had some of the food catered. Bought our cake at Costco. Christening outfit came from Macy's. All together not including newphew's outfit(bought by his parents) we spent $500 and had about 50 people or so.

I held both baptisms in local restaurants in a private room but nothing super fancy. we had about 40 people as neither of us has very large families. I had small favors and activities bags for the kids.
Molly wore my grandmother's gown (as did I, my sister, my mom and my aunts). I did have a new slip made for it since it is over 80 years old. I did get her shoes as well.
Jason got a new outfit from Little Dicksons. I spent over $200 on it but I loved it and it was perfect for him.

We paid for the party in a restaurant, my in-laws bought the cake, my parents bought the favors/centerpieces and the Godmother paid for the gown and accessories.
All in all, it was probably close to $2K.
