Ari’s MJCC Bar Mitzvah Celebration
The last event I performed before the Covid shutdown was Noah’s Bar Mitzvah on March 7, 2020. Almost two years later, it was his brother Ari’s turn for his MJCC Bar Mitzvah Celebration held at Mittleman Jewish Community Center on Saturday, December 18, 2021.
The entire venue was open for guests for this event that began at 6pm, including the gym where the kids played basketball and the foyer where air hockey and cornhole games were set-up.
Around 6:45, everyone gathered in the main ballroom for Havdalah, which was led by family friend Joel, who also played acoustic guitar. We then picked up the energy with “The Hora” and chair raising of Ari and his family, followed by some additional pre-dinner dancing.
A slideshow ran thoughout the night on the big screen, but it was also showcased with music near the end of dinner. I then invited all the kids to the dance floor for some games that included a scavenger hunt, limbo and Blazers vs. Timbers (new name for Coke & Pepsi).
For the last hour, everyone had a great time dancing to fun hit music… everything from “Uptown Funk” and “Levitating” to “Cupid Shuffle” and Ari’s mom’s request for “Party In The USA.”
Mazel Tov Ari and thank you parents Mindy and Mark for again choosing PRO DJs!
Portland Bar Mitzvah McMenamins Cornelius Pass Roadhouse Hillsboro Oregon
Marley’s Portland Bar Mitzvah was held inside the Imbrea Meadow Tent at McMenamins Cornelius Pass Roadhouse in Hillsboro, Oregon on Saturday, October 23, 2021.
This event was originally scheduled for May 23, 2020 and it was a Bar Mitzvah for Marley’s brother Avi. However, with the pandemic postponing or cancelling nearly every event at that time, it was rescheduled for October 2020, then rescheduled again for May 2021 before finally settling on this night and with the passage of time, it would now be Marley’s celebration 🙂
For this Bar Mitzvah I also provided sound for the service that began at 4:20. Afterwards, most guests walked to the nearby Historic House for appetizers and a photo booth while the tent was turned by McMenamins staff for dinner. The kids returned about 20 minutes later for some games including Marley’s choice of musical chairs and a limbo.
A short time later, the adults returned for a toast and slideshow. I then invited everyone out to dance to “The Hora” and celebrate Marley with the chair raising. Since his brother didn’t get the opportunity last year, it was good to see him also lifted up high in the chair.
At this point, it was after 8pm and the buffet was just opening for dinner, but guests had a hard time leaving the dance floor, enjoying everything from “Staying Alive” to “Can’t Stop The Feeling” plus the family’s requests for “Uptown Funk,” “Hey Ya,” “I Gotta Feeling” and more.
