Inspirational Quotes Themed Bat Mitzvah

The Guttman family from Manalapan, New Jersey celebrated their daughter Alison’s Bat Mitzvah service at Perrineville Jewish Center in Millstone, New Jersey. There was also a party in her honor at the Grand Marquis in Old Bridge, New Jersey.

Alison loves inspirational quotes so much so that one day she left a sign on her door that read, “Free compliments, take one,” and that’s how her cool Bat Mitzvah theme developed. Mom Sheri is former event planner who did lots of research and incorporated many inspirational details throughout the party. She is also the publisher of Macaroni Kid Western Monmouth.

Some advice from Mom Sheri

“There’s always going to be bigger and better ways to embellish the party, but if it doesn’t make it more fun do you really need to spend money on it?  Most likely nobody else is going to notice other than you.  Food and music are paramount, everything else is icing on the cake. Stop and take it all in, my favorite part of the day was watching my daughter shine on the Bimah, that’s what it’s all about.  If you don’t have a party planner, the day of have a close friend that knows all the details and can help you out if a problem arises, so you can still have a great time. Get a hair, tanning and makeup trial.  Yes, it costs money to do this, but relativity speaking its minuscule compared to the cost of the big day. Bring a change of clothes and shoes to go home in, your feet might be crying at the end of the party.  I was so happy to put on jeans and comfy shoes.”
