You want your daughter's Bat Mitzvah to be a truly special and memorable occasion--a party to honor her passage into Jewish adulthood. Select the perfect location to hold a beautiful event that everyone will enjoy and remember.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Research and Choose a Location

Step1
Hold the party at your synagogue to stay connected with the Jewish nature of the event. Most synagogues have a room or social hall that they rent out to members for parties. Make sure to check about special restrictions the synagogue might have that could alter some aspects of your party.
Step2
Ask your favorite restaurant if they have a party room. The room will need to be big enough to accommodate all your Bat Mitzvah guests and have enough space for tables, music and dancing.
Step3
Select a banquet hall as the location for the Bat Mitzvah party. This is a popular choice for many families. They will provide in-house catering and often have a list of party vendors they work with to make your planning smoother.
Step4
Choose to host the Bat Mitzvah party in a hotel's banquet room or dance hall. You can reserve rooms at the hotel for your out-of-town guests so that they do not have to travel far for the party.
Step5
Research other options for an unusual and fun Bat Mitzvah party. You could select a museum, mansion, country club, boat, or even choose to have your Bat Mitzvah in Israel.
Step6
Get suggestions of locations from friends and family members that have recently held Bat Mitzvah parties, or if you have attended a fantastic party in a great location, see if the venue is available for your party.
Step7
Organize an interview with the manager or party planner responsible for any location you are interested in. Be sure to let them know the date and time you have in mind and the type of party you want to host. You will want to find out about what they offer in terms of catering, decorating and entertainment, as well as any rules and regulations they have for parties.
Step8
Select the best location for your party and book the room. Most venues require a non-refundable deposit that can reach up to 50 percent of the total fees, so make sure that you are settled on a location before you reserve the space.

Tips & Warnings

  • Make sure that you give yourself plenty of time to look for and book a location. Keep in mind that many popular venues fill up over a year in advance.
