We always say the invitation can set the tone for your child’s celebration. This New York subway themed invitation from Karen Schloss of Creative Impressions let guests know what to expect!
Lindsey’s family and friends joined her in celebrating her Bat Mitzvah at Temple Beth El. It was Sukkot and the autumn harvest colors looked beautiful on the bimah
The Goldstein family looked chic in their black and hot pink color palette.
The theme was “Take the L train to New York City.” The place cards were designed as Metro cards and were created at a local Office Max for under $20!
The Pavilion Grille has a great space to work with including a canopy-covered 2,000 square foot dance floor. New York City style was cleverly navigated thanks to Dalsimer Atlas. After guests walked through, they were transported to another place.
A 3-dimensional pop-up of Lindsey on the subway directed her friends to their table
Fun replica signage of the actual MTA sign for Grand Central Station
The tablecloths and seat covers were hot pink and each table had a tall working street lamp with a street sign, such as Wall Street, Broadway and Soho
Lindsey made her entrance in grand style coming down the glass elevator.
Celebrity Entertainment provided great music and dancers. MC TJ was on the dance floor all night. Guests of all ages had a blast!
MC TJ’s hot pink t-shirt stood out in the crowd
Non-stop fun!
Living statues, glitter tattoos and a magazine stand for a photo green screen kept guests entertained all evening.
The living statue, college student Madison Bakish, was from Florida Atlantic University
The magazine stand was the backdrop for photos by Cocktail Hour Entertainment
Photo op on a popular magazine cover
Cocktail Hour Entertainment also provided glitter tattoos which were a big hit
The favors, created by Louie Max, were black hooded sweatshirts designed as subways maps with the New York Subway slogan, “I took the L train to NYC.” Instead of placing the sweatshirts in bags, a tie was used with name tags.
Lindsey raised awareness and funds for FD which works toward treatments for Familial Dysautonomia, a Jewish genetic disease Lindsey’s brother Danny suffers from. She sold raffles for a shopping event and had a team “Team Lindsey” for a 5K for FD Now. Team Lindsey pictured here crossing the finish line
Some advice from Mom Lisa: “Make a to-do-list and break the planning into a timeline. If you handle piece by piece it is much less overwhelming. And NEGOTIATE!”
