A South Beach Themed Bat Mitzvah Celebration

A South Beach Themed Bat Mitzvah Celebration

 

The Flaum family of Livingston, New Jersey, celebrated daughter Bella’s Bat Mitzvah on October 7, 2016, with a beautiful outdoor Havdalah service and a party in her honor at Cedar Hill Golf and Country Club in Livingston, New Jersey. 

The family wanted the celebration to be a fun night, something their guests would never forget. The theme was Bella Beach and guests were “transported” from New Jersey to South Beach for the evening!

Pictured L-R: Sister Sophia, Mom Rachel, Bat Mitzvah girl Bella and Dad Seth.

The photographer was Andy Foster Photography and the rest of the vendor information is listed at the end of the Spotlight.

Mitzvah Style

 

The Flaum family looked chic and ready to party. 

 

Mitzvah Decor and Details

Brian Lynch of Lounge It Up created the South Beach nightclub vibe using purple as the accent color. Bella’s logo, by Lit Logo, was created to mimic the iconic Colony Hotel’s neon sign.

 

Mitzvah Moments on the Dance Floor

 

 Music Music 

Guests danced the night away thanks to MC Kevin from Untouchable Events featuring David Sharky. The electric violinist Gigi who the family had perform at daughter Sophia’s Bat Mitzvah a few years ago, also played throughout the evening.

Mitzvah Camp Sleep-Over 

 

Tyler Hill camp friends slept over with Bella at the Westminister Hotel and got to enjoy brunch the next morning.

 

 

Mom-to-Mom Advice from Mom Rachel

“Wear comfortable shoes!  It is very important to hire the right people so on the day of the event you can actually enjoy your party.  Never feel like you have to do everything or that you need to do more than anyone else.  Decide what is most important to you and start there. Also, not everything always goes exactly as planned so be prepared to go with the flow – its OK!  Oh, and don’t forget to breathe.”
