Themes for a Bat Mitzvah
When a Jewish girl turns 13, she participates in a ceremony called a bat mitzvah and is recognized in her culture as a woman. Planning a bat mitzvah celebration follows her religious ceremony and is party ringing in her transition into womanhood. It's a chance for her family to spoil her with everything from a custom cake design to signature party favors. One of the easiest way to plan an event of this magnitude is by selecting a theme based on her interests and personality. Get her ideas to plan a soiree that she'll love and her guests will adore. Does this Spark an idea?
By Destination
Choose your party based on a place she'd loved to go or that matches a concept for her party wishes. If she's been begging to go to the new arcade restaurant, book her party at the venue where she and her friends can spend hours playing arcade-style games before grabbing a bite to eat and cutting the cake. If she loves the beach but a beach party is not an option, place an outdoor beach-style event in your backyard or local park where you can rent water slides, have a water balloon toss and create other activities that gives her and her friends a reason to put on a bathing suit and get wet.
Her Favorite Activities
If she's a super-feminine girl who loves make-up and pink and flowers with fluffy stuff, plan a girl's-night-in slumber party. Rent costumes or go your local consignment shop for a few dress-up outfits they can switch into for a fashion show. Give each of the girls their own make-up bags chock full of lip gloss, eye shadows, and perfumes to get all dolled up. Rent a photo booth for the night or hire a photographer to capture the girls throughout their fashion show.
Let Her Explore
Create a scavenger hunt party where the guests are invited to gather in teams to find a host of flags and hidden trinkets led to them by clues. Plan the hunt at your local park or hide things inside your house for a rainy-day celebration. Reward each of the players with favor bags.
Her Wildest Dreams
Hire a DJ at a large venue and invite all of her friends. Turn the space into a teen club where the kids can spend the evening dancing, eating from a create-your-own meal buffet and play video games from several screens in the space. Let her make her special entrance announced by the DJ where she's carried in on a large decorative chair. Create a theme within this party such an all-white party, a black-out party where all the lights are off and the space is illuminated by black lights or an animal print theme. Have guests wear attire to match the color theme.
