Planning a Bar or Bat Mitzvah is a milestone event that requires careful attention to detail. Long Island offers a perfect mix of elegance, fun, and scenic beauty, making it an ideal destination to create an unforgettable celebration. Atlantis Banquets & Events offers two stunning venues, the Sea Star Ballroom with incredible waterfront views and the Long Island Aquarium, for the ultimate unique venue. Here’s how you can plan a Bar or Bat Mitzvah that truly wows.
Choose the Perfect Venue
The venue sets the tone for the entire celebration, and Long Island is home to some of the best event spaces in New York. Consider hosting your event at Atlantis Banquets & Events. Located in the heart of Long Island’s East End, Atlantis Banquets & Events offers multiple event spaces, including the breathtaking Sea Star Ballroom, which overlooks the picturesque Peconic River. With state-of-the-art amenities and exceptional service, it’s the perfect location to make memories that last a lifetime.
For guests traveling from out of town, convenient accommodations are key. The Hyatt Place Long Island/East End and The Preston Hotel, located onsite and adjacent to Atlantis Banquets & Events, provide luxurious and comfortable lodging. Their proximity to your event space ensures that your guests can enjoy the celebration without worrying about long commutes.
Incorporate Fun Activities
Long Island’s East End offers a wealth of activities to enhance the Bar/Bat Mitzvah experience, and the Long Island Aquarium provides a unique and unforgettable setting. Imagine hosting your celebration amid stunning aquatic displays and incorporating interactive experiences sure to wow all your guests. Whether you choose to have part of your event in the aquarium’s beautiful spaces or incorporate exclusive animal meet and greet or photo sessions, the aquarium offers an extraordinary backdrop for your milestone event.
For a touch of added adventure, schedule a pre-event or post-event trip to explore the beautiful beaches or charming vineyards that the East End is known for. You can even arrange a kayak or canoe trip exploring the Peconic River with an aquarium guide from Long Island Canoe Kayak Rentals. These activities add a unique touch to the celebration and give your guests an opportunity to experience the local charm.
Personalize the Celebration
To make the event truly special, incorporate personalized elements that reflect the guest of honor’s personality. Work with the talented team at Atlantis Banquets & Events to create a custom menu or unique decor that aligns with your theme. Whether your vision includes elegant floral arrangements or a bold and vibrant design, their event planning experts will bring your ideas to life.
Don’t forget to include entertainment that keeps everyone engaged. DJs, live bands, or even a photo booth can add an interactive element to the event. Atlantis Banquets & Events offers vendor packages that can include audiovisual equipment and staging to accommodate any entertainment option you choose.
Plan Thoughtful Details
Small details can make a big impact. Provide welcome bags for out-of-town guests with local goodies, personalized notes, and information about East End attractions. Thoughtful touches such as themed table settings, custom signage, and a memory station where guests can leave messages for the guest of honor can add a unique and sentimental layer to the event. These well-planned elements will leave a lasting impression on your guests and make the celebration feel even more special.
Capture the Moments
Hire a professional photographer or videographer to document every moment of the celebration. With the stunning backdrop of the Peconic River and elegant event spaces, your photos and videos will be truly spectacular. For an added wow factor, take advantage of the Long Island Aquarium’s incredible settings for unique photo opportunities. Pose with a penguin or sea lion for fun, memorable shots that highlight the magical environment. These one-of-a-kind experiences, combined with live animal habitats and displays, will ensure the celebration is as interactive and engaging as it is photogenic. These distinctive elements ensure that your memories will be just as remarkable as the celebration itself. “The Bar or Bat Mitzvah will cherish these photos and reflect back on this milestone event for the rest of their lives,” stated Craig Alexander, Catering Sales Manager at Atlantis Banquets & Events.
