Jamie & Julie of Flair Event Design + Planning created a party that friends and family flipped over at the Galleria, an event space located within the San Francisco Design Center. Bat Mitzvah girl Julia is a competitive gymnast and wanted to incorporate her love of the sport into her theme and her parents wanted to add a bit of “Cirque du Soleil” entertainment, the combination made this celebration a perfect 10!

Bat Mitzvah Decor
This stunning deconstructed balloon arch welcomed guests into the ballroom
Instead of place cards, guest found their names at the “Seating Rotation” chart. Tables had names such as "Raise the Bar," "Dream Team" and "Go for the Gold"
The venue features a spectacular four-story atrium. Lighting was key and custom Gobos had a dramatic effect
Gail Steinberg Designs did a great job bringing Julia's love of gymnastics to life through the great silhouette cut out figures
The main party color was purple, Julia’s gymnastic team’s color. Aqua was the accent, Julia’s personal favorite. They looked beautiful together
Clear giant confetti balloons added to the festive feel
