Nat-urally Great: Natalie’s Pink and Blue Mitzvah-Ganza!

Pink and Blue tablescape with acrylic floral centerpieces

Combine a confident, poised mitzvah girl, a creative, fun family, great vendors and an enthusiastic and appreciative friend group, and you have all the makings of an epic bat mitzvah celebration. Welcome to Natalie’s Pink and Blue Mitzvah-Ganza, which, if I do say so myself, was Nat-urally Great!

The evening began with a havdallah service at The Millbrook Club, where the color scheme was hatched.

While the mitzvah girl was taking care of the ‘business end’ of her mitzvah, the Plan-it team was busy creating a Pink-and-Blue wonderland, which opened eyes and made jaws drop!

Start with these simple, yet elegant, cocktail table centerpieces.

Add in logo’d cocktail napkins, a card box with the event logo proudly displayed, a beautiful floral adorning the place card table, and a logo’d sign-in mirror with oil-based sharpies, and before even entering the ballroom, there was no doubt you were being transported to a special evening. Come this way!

Inside the Lakeview Room, the magic was really on! The centerpieces, from Jesse Wilson Design, were just spectacular. Bright pink flowers set on acrylic stands, a water bowl with floating candles, silver votives, and the mitzvah girl’s name, in various forms, made for a focal point of the entire room.
