I often get asked by clients while they are making their guest list, “What will the Bar or Bat Mitzvah attendance actually be?” There are so many factors that affect Bar or Bat Mitzvah attendance that it is tough to have a rule of thumb. I always tell my clients, you know your guests better than I do, so you …
It was wonderful working with Daniel’s family for his out of this world, outer space Bar Mitzvah party at Rock Creek Mansion in Bethesda, Maryland. The venue was the perfect backdrop for a glowing night of Israeli dancing, more dancing, games and out of this world fun. Daniel loves science and outer space, but didn’t want it to feel too …
Another big year for Pop Color Events is in the books! It’s been a doozy! Business is booming and I’m even more excited for 2018, 2019 and beyond! The year started slow, as January often does, but by February things were cooking! I celebrated a globally-inspired Bar Mitzvah at Temple Rodef Shalom. Then in March was Olivia’s colorful, balloon filled …

I had such a fun time working with Lily’s family for her festive Luau Bat Mitzvah party. Their laid-back vibe fit perfectly with the beachy, rustic, natural look they were going for. I find that families who choose Pinstripes as their venue, just want to have fun and boy did they! The family and their guests were dressed in their Hawaiian …

Who is the person who is going to make that a reality? YOU! That’s right. Not your entertainment, not your MC, not your event planner, not your venue. It’s the …
Hi Brynne! Do have any sense of the protocol for inviting clergy to my son’s Bar Mitzvah? Do you have to invite all the clergy or just the ones that officiate? Or does it just depend on how well you know them and how well they know your child? – Clueless Mitzvah Mom Great question, CMM! At a minimum, it’s a …
I loved collaborating with Shoshana’s family on her blue and silver Bat Mitzvah party at Rock Creek Mansion in Bethesda. Shoshi has one request–sparkle! And boy did her party sparkle from start to finish! Adult escort cards glittered and were accented with photos of Shoshana throughout the years. Adult centerpieces had some serious bling! The whole room sparkled with these …
A photo booth is a must-have for your child’s Bar or Bat Mitzvah because when done right, they’re instant crowd pleasers. They give guests all the joy of a good selfie, with the added benefit of perfect lighting, a stylish backdrop, and a free-pass for the person with the longest reach to finally try a pose other than arm-awkwardly-outstretched-in-space. What’s …
