The Shulman Bar Mitzvah Family Spotlight

 

Jake Shulman celebrated his Bar Mitzvah on January 7, 2012 with a havdalah twilight service at Temple Sinai in Roslyn, New York followed by his celebration.

Jake’s nickname is “Big” which was the inspiration for many of the special touches during this party.

We thank the Shulmans for sharing their ideas with Mitzvah Market.

Brian Jackson was the photographer and all the rest of their vendors are listed at the bottom of this spotlight.
