The day your son or daughter becomes a Bar or Bat Mitzvah is an important milestone for any Jewish family.
It’s an experience of a lifetime. A rite of passage with an opportunity to celebrate with family, friends, and loved ones, and to create long-lasting memories.
But with the pandemic putting certain restrictions on our celebrations, proud parents have had to adapt to the new changes. Swapping bustling family events, for smaller, intimate affairs. That’s not to say your child’s Bat or Bar Mitzvah party can’t be a memorable one!
It just involves a bit more creativity, lots of fun ideas, and a dash of diligent pre-party planning.
Are you ready to be inspired?
Just because your family can’t attend in person, doesn't mean they can’t be part of the action.
You might have found yourself asking, “what if?” What if family and friends don’t feel comfortable attending a big event? What if they can’t attend due to illness? What if you have to postpone your Bar or Bat Mitzvah party in the near future?
Since the pandemic, virtual meetings and get-togethers have now become a part of life.
So, why not make your event Zoom accessible?
Create an invitation with a date, time, and instructions on how to join via a Zoom link if they can’t attend in person. Or consider making the whole Bat or Bar Mitzvah party a virtual event.
Take advantage of the good weather during the warmer months and create a ‘WOW-worthy’ outdoor event.
Think marquees, picnics, pool parties, & nature-inspired set-ups.
How about an outdoor movie screening? An enchanted wood dinner? Or food trucks and music?
Without walls, your ideas can be limitless. Creating a fun, casual, and safe environment for the whole family.
Who said a garden party can’t be fun?
At home, you have the pleasure of creating a friendly, intimate, and personal atmosphere. Providing a safe oasis for young children in a stress-free environment.
It isn’t necessarily about throwing a big Bat or Bar Mitzvah party for everyone you know. It’s about honouring this significant religious rite of passage and having your child feel truly celebrated.
The Bat or Bar Mitzvah is one of the greatest and most memorable milestones in the life of a Jew. And your child’s ability to have their voice heard throughout their Bat or Bar Mitzvah process can be extremely empowering.
Your child’s ability to make choices will personalise the experience and make them feel more invested. Inspiring them to take pride in their Jewish identity.
