Bar Mitzvah Timeline
How
to keep your planning on the right track.
We're not going to lie -- a Bar Mitzvah takes a lot
of planning (and we mean a lot). Use this basic
timeline to check up on your progress in the upcoming
months. If you've got less time to plan, don't panic
-- but do get started right away!
1 to 2 Years before...
-
Pick the Bar Mitzvah date and make sure it's held
on the synagogue calendar.
-
Figure out a preliminary budget.
10
to 12 (or more) months before...
-
Start thinking about what kind of party you want
to have -- colors, theme, location, everything!
-
Sign your child up for Bar Mitzvah classes at
your synagogue.
-
Start thinking about the guest list.
-
Start looking at Bar Mitzvah locations. It might
seem early, but remember, you're competing against
weddings and other parties, so these places book
up fast. If you see one you love, go for it!
6
to 8 months before...
-
If you and your child are ordering a dress (especially
one that'll require tailoring), start shopping
now. Order as much in advance as possible to leave
time for last-minute alterations.
-
Start thinking about what kind of food you'd like
to have.
-
Decide on what kind of entertainment you want.
A band? A DJ?
-
Start researching and booking party pros, like
your photographer, band or dj, etc.
-
Check out party-rental places if you need to rent
anything for your Bar Mitzvah (like chairs and
tables or a tent).
4
to 6 months before...
-
If you're getting custom-printed invitations,
it's time to start shopping.
-
Having a custom-made cake? Start thinking about
how you'd like it to look (and taste!), and check
out the bakeries in your area.
-
If you're planning on having any oneg Shabbat,
discuss your needs with the synagogue caterer.
3
months before...
-
Order your invites.
-
Order your cake.
-
Meet with your rabbi and/or cantor to talk about
the service.
2
months before...
-
Get those invitations in the mail.
-
If you're having you and your child are having
hair or makeup professionally done, make those
appointments now. You might also want to do a
trial run to see how it'll look.
1
month before...
-
If you've ordered a dress, pick it up from the
store and have your final fittings done.
Two
weeks before...
-
Take a peek at your RSVPs and call up any guests
you're still waiting to hear from.
-
If you're having a professional photographer,
discuss when portraits or other posed shots will
be taken during the Bar Mitzvah, and who will
be in them. You'll need to schedule enough time
beforehand.
The
day before...
-
Go back over any and all checklists to be sure
you've taken care of every detail.
-
Get a good night's sleep!
The
day of...
-
Relax! You'll do great. And one more thing --
mazel tov!
