When your child becomes a bar mitzvah or bat mitzvah, it’s a proud moment, and you have to share it with your friends and family. Following, we are giving you some important tips that will help you plan a great party to have fun with your friends and celebrate your child’s progress.
Select the Date
Choosing the date of Your Child’s Bat Mitzvah should be your priority. You can assign the date three years beforehand. It depends on the size of the congregation. Most people choose the 13th birthday of their child. You need to coordinate with the authority and management to pick a date that suits you best.
Book the Venue
There are a lot of excellent bar mitzvah venues in Melbourne. So before you choose the location for this evening, you better choose whether you will conduct the event in the afternoon or evening. If you are doing it in the evening, then you have to mind a few things. Following we are putting together a list of things you should mind when you are planning your Bar Mitzvah:
• Is the party going to be held at synagogue or some other area?
• Will you hold the event only for kids or are there going to be people of mixed ages
• Will the food be kosher or non-kosher?
• Are you going the extra mile for location and spend some money on decoration or not?
• Will you have a cocktail hour at First? If yes then you will have to arrange for a facility for drinks beside the main menu
Food and Drinks
If you are going to host a cocktail party before the main meal then you better mind the following
• Fruit and cheese
• Carving station with corned beef, roasted beef and roasted turkey
• If you want a cold fish buffet, then you better stick with whitefish and smoked salmon
• If you are going to target this event for kids, then you need to order pizza, chicken fingers or something else
Are you going to have a separate menu for kids? It sounds fun, and it's less expensive than some alternatives.
Pick a Theme
You can’t have a party if you don’t have a theme. Picking a theme makes it easy to plan the whole thing. This should reflect your kid’s interest. Following we are naming some possibilities for you
• Sports
• Tropical Luau
• Hollywood
• Any Specific Movie
• Dance
• Theater
• Books
The theme can be tied to decorations, invitations, and other things.
The Entertainment
You need entertainment for the big event. Depending on your settings and audience, you have a wide variety of options to choose from. Without wasting time, we will get to the point:
• Hire a band instead of a DJ
• Casino Games for Kids during Cocktail hours for kids
• Dance Party Games and Arts to entertain the younger audience
• Photo station, it will entertain people of every age group
