The Right of Passage with a Flair

Bar and Bat Mitzvah parties with a twist.

 

Bar and Bat Mitzvah parties are on the top of our “most favorite events to do” list.
When Jewish boys at 13 and girls at 12 celebrate their coming of age, they become accountable for their actions and become  Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah. It is a rite of passage from being considered unable to properly understand the Torah to being considered old enough to begin to understand and thus for them to be treated more like adults. It is also the beginning of taking responsibility for Jewish ritual law, traditions, and ethics and being able to participate in all areas of Jewish community life.

And  this coming of age is celebrated by having a meal with friends and family and a party. These days, Bar and Bat Mitzvah parties are crafted like Hollywood parties. We have traveled from Canada to Florida and each party has been different from the other. An oxygen bar adds the "oomph" or the "cool" factor to the party. Often taking their role as a young "adult" seriously, a 12 or 13 year old would call us to ask if we would do their Bar/Bat Mitzvah party. Then they would hand over the phone to their parent so we could explain to the parent what an oxygen bar entails and how we would do the event. But mostly the parents call us themselves because they want a novel idea for their child’s Bar/Bat Mitzvah.

We love doing these parties. The parents love having an oxygen bar at their party because it is safe, healthy and fun. Most of all, it makes their child happy. 
The guests like the ambience of the oxygen bar with its lights, bubbles, and aromas. It makes them feel special. The adults prefer herbal aromas like tea tree, cinnamon, rosewood, camphor, eucalyptus, lavender, ylang-ylang. The youngsters go for fruity aromas like orange, peach, banana, pina` colada, strawberry, pineapple or mint, vanilla and sugar cookies. 

Hiring an oxygen bar service for your event is simple. As we often say, you provide the space, we will do the rest. Locally, the service includes transportation, set up and bartending. There is nothing else for you to do, but to relax and enjoy!Here are some pictures to give you an idea. If you need more information, please email/ call us.
