Why Have Game Rentals at Your Mitzvah Celebration?
A mitzvah is a turning point in a young man or young woman’s life. As jewishmuseum.org.uk explains, “A Bar or Bat Mitzvah is a coming of age ceremony for Jewish boys and girls when they reach the age of 12 or 13. This ceremony marks the time when a boy or girl becomes a Jewish adult. This means that they are now responsible for their own actions and can decide for themselves how they would like to practice Judaism.” Children usually spend at least a year preparing for their mitzvah ceremonies, and families often want to celebrate the special occasion afterwards with a party.
Arcade game rentals and photobooth rentals are the perfect way to entertain both teenage and adult guests during the celebration! Though we have dozens of games to choose from, some mitzvah favorites include:
D.C. Bar/Bat Mitzvah Party Ideas
Celebrating through a bar/bat mitzvah party is something a young man or woman will remember for years to come. Help him or her create great memories with some of these mitzvah party ideas:
Hire a DJ
There’s not much young partygoers enjoy more than listening to great music and dancing it out. Having the right music helps set the tone for the whole bar mitzvah party. An important note when hiring a DJ for your upcoming bar mitzvah is to ensure they can play the Hora. You don’t want to miss out on this special celebratory ritual. If you can make your budget stretch, you could even consider hiring a live band! Hoisting up the Oleh during the Hora to live music is sure to create a memorable time.
Rent a Photo Booth
What better way is there to bring home memories from such a joyous celebration than using a photo booth?! Bar mitzvah guests of all ages will enjoy using a photo booth of any kind, and Snap Entertainment has seven different options to choose from. Whether you prefer a traditional photo booth like the Picture Perfect Photo Booth or want to add modern flare with the 360 Slow Motion Booth, Snap Entertainment has the perfect photo booth for your bar mitzvah. All of our photo booths come with an attendant to keep the photo-taking process moving smoothly and allow for a digital gallery to be accessed following the event. Some of our photo booth options also allow for on-site prints so your guests can leave with a permanent memory in hand.
