Cartoon Comics Themed B’not Mitzvah

The Paris family celebrated their daughter’s Samantha (Sam) and Sabrina’s (Nina) B’not Mitzvah service at Temple Shalom in Norwalk, Connecticut followed by a celebration at Bank Street Events, a catering venue in Stamford, Connecticut. The girls have always loved Archie Comics which became their perfect theme. Mom Kimberly created much of the decor cleverly turning it into Samantha & Sabrina Comics – Double Digest!

 Mitzvah Project

The girls’ Aunt Mimi was very special to them. Despite many challenges, she had a great outlook on life and taught them to always look at the world as a glass half full. During her final years, Mimi was living in an assisted living home. The girls went to visit her as often as they could until she passed away at 100 years old. Not only did they learn a lot from her, but those visits brought her great happiness. When it came to choosing a Mitzvah project, the girls immediately thought of the time they spent with her and how much it meant. They decided that in honor of her, they would give of their selves and their time. For the past year they have been visiting the residents at the Jewish Home for the Elderly in Bridgeport. With each visit they hoped to put a little more happiness and sparkle in the resident’s lives, just as Mimi did for them!

Mom Advice from Mom Kimberly

“Start early with your planning. Pick a location that works with your vision rather than forcing your vision on a locale.  We knew we wanted comic strips.  The tall windows created the perfect canvas for us along with the lampshades that adorned the perimeter of the location.  Also, make sure everyone in the family has an element of the event that they can ‘plan and own” so all members of the family feel invested and involved!”
