If you have been tasked with organising a Bar Mitzvah, you’re probably thinking about how to decorate the party venue. It’s a big occasion for the child and it can be tricky to find the right combination of tradition and fun. Here are some tips to hopefully provide some great party inspiration:
Theme – This is a great place to start your plans. A theme can help to bring together all the other elements. Consider the different age groups that will be present and try to choose a theme that isn’t too age specific. A family-friendly theme that will still be exciting for young teens is ideal.
Memory Wall – A lovely way to combine tradition and fun is to create a memory wall. You could include photos of the child growing up, photos that tell the story of the family and even photos from relatives’ Bar or Bat Mitzvahs to provide a timeline of tradition.

Table Centrepiece – Flower arrangements aren’t the only thing you can use to decorate party tables. You could go big with sculptures, balloon displays, statement pieces or funky lamps. Shop around and see what unique centrepieces are available.
Celebrate the Child – Yes, the Bar Mitzvah is a religious celebration but you can also celebrate other aspects of the child’s life, such as any special talents in sports, music or any other hobbies.
Photo Booth – Kids will love getting funny shots with their friends and photo booths are hugely popular, especially with a range of props to choose from to make the pictures even funnier.
