If your budget is about $5 a bottle, I'd suggest getting the bottle of DonJulio cause it looks really nice. Once everyones had a few drinks, they're not really going to care what it tastes like. And if they don't like tequila, they're not going to drink it anyways...they'll either keep it or give it to one of your other guests.
Hope this helps!

A little bit of info on Patron
It would be a great idea to give out Patron bottles as gifts but be aware that Patron tequila is not real mexican tequila. Many people don't know that.
I'm a patron drinker myself and it's by far my favorite tequila. As a matter of fact my nickname used to be Tequila QueenI am also mexican so I requested for my mother to bring me back a bottle on her last trip to Mexico. When she tried to purchase Patron in Mexico they told her she was better off buying it in the US because it was cheaper here. In Mexico, Patron is an imported tequila so it costs more there. I looked up some history on line and Patron's headquarters are actually in Las Vegas. If you look up the names of the original founders they are all american too.
A good substitute to Patron could be Don Julio silver.
