Melisa Imberman from The Event Of A Lifetime had been working with this family for almost 2 years on a unique themed B’nai Mitzvah celebration for their twins until COVID changed everything.
As Melisa has been doing during these crazy times, she switched gears and planned a Mini Mitzvah in the backyard of the house that they had moved into only three weeks before!
Melisa tells Mitzvah Market, “This family was very COVID conscious and wanted all of their guests to be safe and feel comfortable.” She continues, “When a party is small like we’re doing now it’s possible to incorporate personal touches.”
As you will see below, Melisa was able to use their logo and brand the small celebration into something special. As the Mitzvah Mom told her, “everything looked magical!”

B’nai Mitzvah Details
As guests arrived, they saw balloons marking the path to the backyard
First stop was a table with custom logo masks & hand sanitizers. Additionally, there was a photo of Ethan & Lexie holding up onesies that they were given when they were born that read, “Save the Date: Bar/Bat Mitzvah 2020”
They used the largest tent they could so guests could be spread out and seated only with their family members
The tent was uplit in amber with string lights and black paper lanterns hanging from the top. The only time guests got up from their seats was for the food stations & they were called up by table. Hors d'oeuvres & dessert were both passed to guests while they were sitting at their tables
Melisa making sure everything was ready before guests arrived
The centerpieces were bright & cheery sunflowers in a container that was wrapped in the twins logo
The logo was used on the napkin rings too
Instead of table numbers, each table had a framed photo featuring the twins with the people sitting at that table - great idea!
Guests were excited to learn they could take the pictures home!
For their candle lighting, the twins Grandmother made the birthday cake that she makes them each year and it was used for the candle lighting ceremony. Guests each received a cupcake (shown here) with a candle. When the twins read their candle lighting poems for each table, those guests stood up when it was their turn & lit the candle on their individual cupcakes
On each chair hung a logo tote bag with a logo hand sanitizer and a shirt inside
There was a DJ who played songs meaningful to the family, but no dancing. Guests enjoyed the customized digital games of trivia and BINGO created by the DJ
