Favors are an important part of a Bar/Bat Mitzvah celebration; try to tie
the favors to your theme slogan, or to your child's interests.
Ask your guests to think of funny or heartwarming stories or
important advise to live by to share at your party. Send out a card with each
invite, and request that guests bring the completed card to the party. Then,
during the party ask each person (who wants to), to read the
message they have brought with them. You can even videotape this part of the
event as a special keepsake. Or, instead of reading and
videotaping the messages, collect the cards and put them into a
scrapbook. You could add a photo of each person/family to their message too.
Set up a video camera in an area with a decorated backdrop, and have your guests
record a message. Have each guest start by saying "David, you are special
to me/our family because…". Makes a touching tribute they will
treasure for years.
Plan a "This is your life" or "Spotlight" segment during the party. Gather
old family videos, photo albums, school pictures, artwork, trophies, etc.,
and take the time to "chronicle" the life of your child. Decorate a special
chair for him/her to sit in.
A nice touch for the evening would be to set up a photo backdrop area -
either a balloon arch, or a metallic curtain - so that the guest of honor can
have his/her picture taken with either individuals or groupings of his
choice. You will want to take plenty of photographs to document this
important once-in-a-lifetime event!

Decorating for Bar/Bat Mitzvahs
Setting the scene for a spectacular Bar/Bat Mitzvah can be easy with some
simple but dramatic decorating tips. While many parties are "theme" based,
many are planned around a color scheme. Either way, choose your colors as a
starting point, and you'll create an inviting atmosphere. Most color themes
are built around one or two main colors. If you select only one color for
your decorating, try to add little touches of another color or a lighter or
darker shade of the same color. If you select only one color, adding little
splashes of white, black, gold or silver will not detract from your main
color choice, and the effect will be considerably more dramatic!
One of the best ideas for Bar and Bat Mitzvah Decorations comes in the
from of using symbolism in your centerpieces.
It has become quite common for this "coming of age" celebration to last an
entire weekend with a range of parties to plan from luncheons, informal
Friday evening parties, black tie affairs on Saturday evening, and sporting
activities for out of town guests. These decorating tips can be used for any
of your parties, and it is perfectly appropriate to carry one theme or color
scheme throughout the weekend, or to choose something completely different
for each.
What Should I Choose?
The party protocol "rules" that once used to determine or limit our choices
no longer exist! It has become very popular to select a theme related to the
interests or talents of the child to be honored. If you elect not to use a
specific theme, choose favorite colors, colors to complement your party
setting, or colors to set a mood…anything goes! If your party is not theme
based, decorating around a favorite color is the perfect choice! For example,
if your son's favorite color is green, build the perfect party around varying
shades of green .
If your party is theme based , choose colors related to the theme. The
following list represents a sample of some color choices, but by no means
does it represent the only choice that would be appropriate! Choose
color-based basics, then add some fun props related to your theme to create a
spectacular party setting!
The themes listed below have been the most popular for Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, but
bear in mind that no theme is off limits! If you can imagine it, the party
planners at ReasonToParty can help you decorate for any party! After you
select a theme, we'll provide you with some specifics on decorating, favors,
and entertainment.
Celestial – royal blue, and gold
Stars – gold or silver and black
Music – black and white with little splashes of red
Sports – green, and the predominant color of your son or daughter's favorite
sport (Orange for basketball, bright yellow for tennis, black and white for
soccer, white and red for baseball, etc.)
Fifties – black, white, hot or pastel pink
Luau/Beach – lots of brights – green, yellow, blue, hot pink
Western – red, black, and white
Hollywood – black & gold or silver
60's & 70's Retro – lime green, hot pink, purple, banana yellow, or turquoise
Jungle/Rainforest– varying shades of green, with splashes of orange, red &
yellow
