02 Dez Bar/Bat Mitzvah Entertainment Ideas

Coming of age is an exciting time for any young man or lady. It’s also an occasion that only happens once, so it’s important for a bar or bat mitzvah to be a special, memorable event.

There are guest lists to write, invitations to send, food and drink to plan, and events locations to scout out, just to name a few things on the ‘to-do’ list! One of the biggest things to consider while planning is the entertainment. Keeping your bar or bat mitzvah guests entertained will ensure a fun, enjoyable experience to celebrate this special day!

Bar/Bat Mitzvah Entertainment Ideas

There are dozens of entertainment ideas for the perfect bar or bat mitzvah. With so many options available, choosing that perfect combination can be a challenge. Here are some entertainment ideas to get you started.

Photography

There are few better ways to document a special occasion than photography. While most everyone’s phones have cameras these days, event photography is unique!

• Professional: Professional photographers are experienced in seeking out and capturing the life of the party. Their high-end cameras are especially great in rooms with low light, or catching dance or action shots. Many offer package services which print and bind your finished photos for a perfect family memento.
• Photo booth: Kids and adults alike enjoy photo booths. They’re a great way to provide your guests with mementos of the party. Plus, they’re a wonderful compliment to a lighthearted and fun environment. Some photo booths even come with the option of a costume selection, making the photos even more unique!

Music

What’s a party without music? Music is truly an expression of celebration, especially when dancing with friends and family!

• Live: Rock, jazz, retro, indie… the possibilities for live music are vast. Live bands can interact with the crowd in a way that recorded music cannot. Many bands even take special requests, which makes for an intimate and engaging experience.
• DJ: A good DJ can read a room and tune the music to the vibe. They are key to turning a social event into a party to remember.

Games

Games are a wonderful way for people to get to know each other and have fun. Including games into your bar or bat mitzvah will help people have fun and perhaps even make new friends!

Arcade games, game shows, and giant board games are some great options to consider for your party. Quizzes and ‘who dun its’ are perfect for larger groups so that everyone can participate.

Food

While the main part of your party will likely be catered, you can incorporate fun snacks into the night. Creative food ‘bars’ include make your own chocolate, candy bars, yogurt, ice cream, and more.

Party Favors

Party favors come in all shapes and sizes. Putting preselected favors into a bag for your guests is one option. Offering ‘make your own’ favors is an interactive option which also provides your guests with great memories.

Some ideas include:

• Customized photos
• Green screen photography
• CD or DVD favors
• Jewelry making/DIY bling
• Candle making
• Make your own chocolate

Casino Party

If desired, there are many possible themes to choose from. A casino themed party is a great way to incorporate entertainment directly into the night. Your guests can learn to play a variety of card games under the guidance of professional dealers.

Card games, magicians, decor, party favors, games, and cocktail hour are all perfect additions to any ‘casino’. Your guests will be sure to enjoy themselves!
