Thank you to all our family and friends who witnessed Aliah becoming a Bat Mitzvah. Her service and kiddush were at BJBE. Rabbi Fenster walked us through everything on the bima and is great. Cantor Green has the most beautiful voice we could listen to her sing all day. She is terrific with helping the kids put the final touches on their Torah portions and D’var Torah. We had an amazing time celebrating! After months and months of planning, everything ran seamlessly and the results were way beyond expectation.
Ellyn Saul was our amazing party planner and we loved working together. Our daughter chose many details and knew exactly what she wanted. Her party theme was her name, Aliah, with blue and purple ombré colors. We incorporated her name and/or logo on napkins, hoodies, giant screens, signs, lampshades. She loved every minute of her dance party. All of our vendors were very professional and I am still receiving compliments about the fantastic weekend!
Food, so much yummy food at the kiddush and party. Lox, potato pancakes and ice cream sundae bar-North Shore Catering. Grilled kosher salami, sushi and delicious appetizers, burgers, veggie burgers, hand cut fries with real cheddar-Poochies.
LOFT 21 is modern, beautiful, spotlessly clean and secure. Jess Blaze from HYPE is a wonderful MC. We ate and danced the night away.
My only regret is you can’t invite everyone and choosing guest lists and making tables is really hard. These 13 years have flown by and it makes me really happy to know our daughter has accomplished something significant and we will cherish the memories for the rest of our lives while looking forward to her future. We are overwhelmed by everyone’s generosity and kindness. Thank you so much for everything!
