How to Spice Up Rite of Passage Parties

Copyright (c) 2006-2012 DBA AdPro Media Sales, All Rights Reserved
Written by:

A rite of passage such as a bar mitzvah or a bat mitzvah, marks when a person reaches a certain time in his or her life when a significant change is taking place. Many cultures and religions have rite of passage occasions to celebrate a person's passage into a new and/or different stage of their lives. These rites of passage can include bar mitzvahs, bat mitzvah, graduations, birthdays, and more. These occasions are usually celebrated with large parties.

The single more important thing you can do to spice up your right of passage party is to hire the right entertainment. Since this is your son or daughter's party, let them choose the type of music. Ask them if they would like to have a DJ or a live band. Ask them if they would like a light show. Once you know what kind of music and light show your son or daughter would like, you can search for the DJ or entertainer. Ask friends and family members for recommendations. You can also ask local radio stations for a recommendation. Having the right music, whether it's a DJ or a live band, is essential to spicing up the party and throwing a party your son or daughter will remember.

Food is the next big decision. The best way to accommodate a large party crowd is to have a variety of foods available. Of course, this can be a little costly. If you do not want to spend a lot of money on food, you can always serve hors d'oeuvres instead of a complete meal. Depending on how much you want to spend, you can be creative with the foods. You can have professional caterer prepare your foods or, if you have the time, you can prepare the food yourself. One way to spice up the food is to have it presented in a way that attracts attentions. Do not simply put it on trays and serve it. You can have it arranged nicely into patterns, with little decorations, or in bowls and plates that represent a theme. Be creative with it.

In fact, using a theme at your right of passage party is a very effective way to spice up the event. If your child is into technology, you can have a "techie" party—using decorations that represent the areas of technology that interest your child. You could host a luau, a party with a country western, Broadway, nighttime, or ocean theme. There are hundreds of themes. Check your local party store for ideas and decorations for your theme.

There are a lot of easy ways to spice up a right of passage party. Find out what interests your son or daughter, get an idea about what generally interest your guests, and design your party around that theme. Choose the right entertainment and a variety of foods and drinks that everyone will enjoy; present the food in a way that gets everyone's immediate attention. By following these three simple steps, you are on your way to spicing up your next right of passage party.

Cheap Tattoos Cheapen The Tattooing Experience

Many of my girlfriends have "girl nights" around getting tattoos, as if it were as casual as getting a haircut or a manicure. The casual attitude toward tattoos bothers me for two reasons; there is the age old argument that tattoos are permanent and not a decision to make lightly. The other argument I have against tattoos is that getting a tattoo on a whim significantly cheapens the tattoos that others have for cultural reasons or to commemorate a major life event.
