The Bryan Hirsch Bar Mitzvah Family Spotlight

The Bryan Hirsch Bar Mitzvah Family Spotlight

The Hirsch family celebrated their son Bryan’s Bar Mitzvah on May 4, 2013 at Midway Jewish Center in Syosset, New York. The next day it was a fun bowling bash at 300 Long Island, a bowling and event venue in Melville, New York.

This talented family designed many of the creative touches themselves!

Alex Wolff of The Portrait Shoppe was the photographer and the rest of the vendors are listed at the bottom of this spotlight.

Mom Eileen handmade the invitations with supplies purchased at a variety of art supply stores!

 

 

The red and black color combination was used throughout the party
 

  

 

 
Custom bowling shirts was the style of choice for this Mitzvah family.

 

 

  

The front of the shirt featured each person’s name on the left side

The logo “Bryan’s Bowling Bash” was on the back

 

 

 

The good times really rolled at Bryan’s Bowling Bash!  Bryan and his friends bowled and played games in a private room at 300 Long Island, a hip entertainment destination bowling alley.

 Bowling pin flashlights found at Shindigz.com were used as lane assignment holders

Photos made into image cutouts of Bryan for the centerpieces were done by Lighter Than Air, designed by Mom Eileen and built by all 4 members of the Hirsch family!

Mom Eileen made so many of the creative touches for her son’s party. The wooden bowling alley below was 1 of 2 used to decorate the food buffet tables.

 


She purchased a wood base, painted the ball black, printed the logo and decorated it herself

 


There was one for the kids buffet and one for the adult buffet

 

 

 

 

 Bar Mitzvah boy Bryan built a Lego bowling alley entirely by himself (not a kit of any kind). He ordered all the necessary bricks from Lego Pick A Brick section on Lego.com.

 

It features each member of the Hirsch Family bowling and was displayed in the center of the bar for all to see

 


The lucite display box was custom made for the bowling alley and ordered online

 

 

 

The cover of the sign-in book that Mom Eileen designed was created by The Portrait Shoppe.

The logo and t-shirt favors were created by Gotham T-shirts.

 

 


The logo really popped on the red t-shirt


These fun bowling ball stressballs were also given to guests


The favor bags all lined up like bowling pins

 

 

Zucker’s Bakery also created cookie favors to look like bowling balls and Mom Eileen created the great “to go” labels.

 

 

 

These great labels were on the cookie bags

 

 

 

 

Some advice from Mom Eileen:
“I am a very organized and a well thought out planner. I made a to-do list at least 1 year in advance. After I booked 300 Long Island, I laid out my plan of what needed to be accomplished each month along the way, and this made it stress free.”
