The main advantage of the d500 is its ability to capture action scenes using continuous shooting mode. And, as a crop sensor, it has more "reach" for distant wildlife. For events and family, I would think the d750 a better choice. You can get a D750 with a battery grip for a great price this weekend.
I should have added that I would be wary of a d750 used because there was a shutter replacement recall, and you might need service done to the camera. I believe it is still free but it is a hassle. For the d750 I would think it worth it to buy new, given the large current discount. If money is an issue, a crop sensor like the d7200 is an excellent camera at a good price. You might use it with an 18-140 and a 35mm dx lens.
