Bar Mitvah with an Elegant 007 Theme

When young Noah came to me and said he wanted a 007 themed Bar Mitzvah, I became excited as all of the ideas began to bubble around in my head. However, I found out more about what he envisioned before I began spewing forth my ideas.

Noah and I along with his parents chatted several times and came up with some ideas to give Noah a swanky event and to conjure up the spirit of 007 himself:

We wanted the event to have the sleek look that Bond represented, so we decided on a color scheme of navy blue, black and silver. The color scheme was delivered by stylish silver and black table linens in polycotton, satins and pintucks. For the dinner tables, we accented the linens with blue napkins and martini glasses as centerpieces filled with colored MnMs. The place card and gift tables were accented with silver satin overlays.

Of course 007 would not attend an event without his favorite drink, the martini. Martini bars filled with tasty spirits were in the ballroom and on the patio for the adults. For the kids, there was a "mocktini" bar (a non alcoholic drink of Noah's favorite strawberry lemonade).

The event also featured a large poster of Noah as 007 himself in his swankiest suit with the casino royale background. For entertainment, there was a kid friendly DJ that kept the kids dancing. There was also a room with a Nintendo Wii on a big screen for the kids that needed a break from all of the dancing.

At the end of the evening, Noah was very pleased with his party. He and his friends had so much fun they were fast at sleep within an hour after the party ended.
