Ruth Ridgeway of Ruth Ridgway Designs sent us a very chic Bat Mitzvah she planned and coordinated at The Loading Dock in Stamford, Connecticut.
The Bat Mitzvah girl, whose Mom is a Rabbi, wanted to celebrate her special day with Jewish tradition in a contemporary way.
Using a black, white and pink color palette, Ruth Ridgway and her team created an elegant and hip celebration of life, love and family.
Upon arrival, guests entered the gallery where a photo journey graced the walls of Bat Mitzvah girl Erin. Each section showed her at different ages with her family and friends
The banner that hung from the high ceiling included her logo, a modern take on the Star of David. Her initial “E” fitting perfectly inside
At the entrance of the service area, there were baskets that held kippot, Erin’s invitations and a beautiful flower arrangement
It is hard to imagine how an industrial space could be transformed into an intimate and chic space perfect for a Bat Mitzvah celebration
To make a tranquil ceremonial spot for the service, the Ruth Ridgeway Design team created a custom “Tree of Life” bimah using a cut-out screen table with a leaf pattern and leaf patterned Gobos that were projected on the draping behind
There were many fun areas to hang out in this unique space
The lounge furniture was alternating black, white and pink with lots of pillows and ottomans
Erin’s logo looked beautiful front and center over the Star of David themed bar
Modern black and white accent pieces adorned the wall over the communal seating
Family pictures that decorated the bar area was a lovely way to personalize the room
Erin’s Sweets and Treats – a sweet end to the evening
We thank Ruth Ridgeway Designs for sharing this great Bat Mitzvah with our readers.
