Mitzvah Themes

Here at Gala Events, we’ve had the pleasure of planning and producing the décor for a great number of bar and bat mitzvahs. Despite being responsible for so many of these mitzvahs, we always ensure that the custom creations leaving our building are exceptional and distinctive so that the ensuing event is a very memorable experience. Many of our successful designs are based around a central theme that is reflective of the tastes of the child that is becoming a bar or bat mitzvah.

I’d like to briefly list just a few of the greatest mitzvah themes we’ve created at Gala:

Around the World – A travelling themed mitzvah where all the distinct locales that the child has visited are represented, from the monuments to the minutia. Often times, large scale facades complete this look, featuring buildings and restaurants from around the world.

Beach – Gala has been tasked on a number of occasions to bring the beach to the middle of a venue space. I’d like to think we’ve passed with flying colors with exciting ideas like a boardwalk entranceway, sandcastle centerpieces made using real sand and a variety of beach shop facades and beach umbrellas in the surrounding area.

Club – A club themed mitzvah features the rapid lighting and excitement of a lush dance club. Think of sleek, glossy blacks and whites, modern furniture designs and a thrilling dance floor.

New York – Similar to the Around the World theme, but specifically representing the city’s popular tourist areas and other facets of New York. We’ve created an amazing subway car entranceway that helps complete the look.

Sports – A child’s favorite sport or sports are featured through various facets such as a custom dance floor to look like a playing field, flashing scoreboards, sports centerpieces featuring equipment and jerseys and locker rooms. We’ve done baseball, basketball, hockey, football, soccer and many others.

I’ll be sure to include a few more of our exciting themes in my next blog.
