The brief
Bar & Bat Mitzvahs, by Lev Event
A bar or bat mitzvah is a deeply meaningful service followed by one of the most joyful parties of a family’s life. We coordinate with your synagogue’s calendar and clergy, plan the kiddush luncheon, and produce an evening reception with as much — or as little — spectacle as you want.
We design for two crowds at once: adults who want a beautiful dinner and a great band, and teens who want a lounge, a photo booth and a DJ who knows their songs. Candle-lighting ceremonies, montages and the hora all get their own cue in the running order.
