Whenever I photograph a Bar Mitzvah Party I'm always amazed at the creativity that is conveyed when it comes to the decor. Over my past 20 years shooting Bat and Bar Mitzvah I have seen a lot of really cool ideas. This party featured a M&M theme. I love M&Ms so I loved this concept. When guests entered this Bar Mitzvah party the were greeted with a plexiglass table that included different compartments designed to hold M&Ms, Flowers, and Yarmulkes. This was the theme through out the entire event. Photographing unique Bat and Bar Mitzvahs has always been a passion because of all the unique and interesting elements that are combined to created an experience that is fun, creative and emotional.
Over the years I have photographed some very unique Bar Mitzvahs and seen some really cool decor ideas. Some of the themes I have photographed include: Snow Skiing, which believe it or not is a very popular South Florida Bar / Bat Mitzvah theme. I have photographed Candy Land Themes, Hockey themes, Night Club theme parties and Fashion Theme Bat Mitzvahs and many many more.
Consider the guests taste buds. In the case of this unique Bar Mitzvah Decor the event planner came up with the idea of creating decor that was both visual and tasty. The colors of the flowers combined with the M&Ms created great visual impact while giving guests something to munch on. Many of the parties I have covered featured candy bars as well. I also shot a Bar Mitzvah where the cuisine was prepared in the center of a ballroom while the guest selected their food from a moving conveyor belt which traveled about the open air kitchen. It was really cool.
Another thing to consider is to make the decor interactive. I photographed another Bar Mitzvah where they built a huge graffiti wall around the party. The kids got to draw and paint all around the party. I believe the paint was washable. Not only did the kids have a great time drawing and painting so did many adults. I also recently photographed a Bat Mitzvah that featured a skating rink. In this case the entire party had a ice cave theme which made the pictures really unique and fun.
