April 4th - David's Bar Mitzvah

1 of our Lip Sync Contest Groups
This was a great party! My 2 best dancers, Jonny and Lexi were on their 'A' game. This party was for about thirty 12-13 year olds and about 35-40 adults. We brought in blue uplighting along with some dance lighting. It really helped bring the room's decor together. A few games, candlelighting, a slide show all followed up with a great dance party for both the adults and kids.

If you're planning a Bar or Bat Mitzvah you really have to take your time and find the right entertainment. Whether it's a DJ, Video DJ or a Band, the right entertainment is crucial to the outcome of the party. As the client or buyer, you have to be honest about your expectations for the party. Do you want a casual event for the guests to visit with each other, do you want to throw the best party you or any of the guests have ever been to or something in between? Will you be happy if the guests don't dance and party? If you are creating a casual hang around style party then you can probably get by with some minimal entertainment options. If you are throwing an all out Celebration, you need to invest more in the entertainment, therefore further ensuring that the rest of your investment in the party is protected. I've heard from people who chose to hire a DJ based on price and not necessarily quality, and one of the things they all say is that they wish they would have set aside more of their budget for entertainment.
