If you are hosting a bar or bat mitzvah for your child, it’s only natural to want everything to be perfect, from the venue to the food to the Deejay. Luckily, the helpful team at Party Pleasers Services in Cincinnati, Ohio, will ensure your event isn’t just perfect, but also memorable.

Below, they discuss a few things you should keep in mind when finalizing different elements of an event or party.

What to Expect When Planning a Bar or Bat Mitzvah

Location, Location, Location

Look for an event venue specializing in bar and bat mitzvahs, so their staff knows what your party is going to entail. Also, before choosing a site for the party, know approximately how many guests will be attending. This will help you determine how large a facility you will need. You should also consider a general date, but keep in mind that the best party venues book quickly and months in advance, so have more than one date in mind.

A Little Theme Goes a Long Way

Although you don’t have to have a theme at a bar or bat mitzvah, picking something fun will make it easy to decorate the space and cohesively design a menu. Ask your son or daughter which themes they and their friends might enjoy and remember when it comes to decorating for a theme, a little goes a long way. Some common mitzvah themes include Hawaiian luau, sports, or the red carpet. Once you know the theme, you can choose everything else around it, from the invitations to the table runners.

Tangible Memories Matter

Leave room in the budget for booking a photographer, because you and your son or daughter are going to cherish those photos for the rest of your lives. You should also consider including other ways to create tangible memories over the course of the evening. Consider reserving a photo booth for the event, or have everyone sign a guestbook or some wall decor for your child to admire and keep with them as they grow older and move away.
