An MTV Themed Bat Mitzvah

An MTV Themed Bat Mitzvah

The Lasky family celebrated the Bat Mitzvah of daughter Morgan on September 17th, 2016. The venue was the New Jersey Center for Science, Technology and Mathematics (STEM) on the campus of Kean University in Union, New Jersey.

The Bat Mitzvah’s theme was MTV (Morgan Television) and event planner Dayna Platnick along with Rooftop2 Productions and Debbie’s Bouquets created a cool, hip event that transformed this unique space into one fabulous party!

Mom-to-Mom Advice from Mom Shelly

We all love the bells and whistles, but at the end of the day, you want to create an emotional and meaningful journey for your guests. Speeches, videos and creative programming throughout the night are what separates one party experience from another. Start planning early and be as organized as possible. It helps to have a great party planner too!

Mitzvah Project

Morgan and her Mom traveled to Guatemala to feed children at a malnutrition center through Orphan’s Heart. This is a non-profit organization on a mission to bring love and care to every child in need through international missions and child sponsorship. Mom Shelly and Morgan spent two days with babies and toddlers playing with them, feeding them and giving them some much needed attention and love.
