Lauren celebrated her bat mitzvah with a “Broadway Bash” on November 1, 2014 at the Circuit Center Ballroom. The party was preceded by a havdalah service led by Rabbi Chuck Diamond. Lauren’s stage experience was evident in her poised, professional delivery and amazing singing voice during the service.
Guests had a “red carpet” experience stepping up to the custom logged step and repeat backdrop to take instant photos. While waiting for their photo op, Sherer Video interviewed guests to send a personal message of congratulations to Lauren. They enjoyed dancing and games led by Steve Maffei Jr. and airbrush tattoos as well.
While the kids had their seating in a large “U” shape table around the dance floor, the adults sat at Broadway show themed tables and found their way to their seats by viewing the “Cast List” on display in the lobby area where adults enjoyed a cocktail reception.
Lauren had a very personalized and unique candle lighting ceremony. While standing beneath her custom event marquee, Lauren invited 13 groups of guests up one at a time. Because her full name is a total of 13 letters, each guest lit one letter as they were called up until her entire first and last name were completely illuminated.
Toward the end of the night, guests enjoyed a Broadway themed candy station and a sweets table.
