Benjamin’s Bar Mitzvah: November 30, 2024
This was a rehearsal and party that took place at two different synagogues. Benjamin’s rehearsal was at Beth Emeth on a chilly Thursday at the end of November. I met the family there, and took Benjamin outside for a couple of photos before the real winter took hold. In and out we did go with parents and siblings before settling into photos from the Torah in the sanctuary. We wrapped up that adventure and waited for Saturday’s main event. And by main event, I mean the party in the evening, not necessarily the ceremony in the morning. So we met at Beth Torah, and started putting together different variations of portraits of friends and family before heading into the party room where the Magen Boys were laying down some serious dance moves. We parted late into the night; speeches, hora, delicious food, just fun. Mazel Tov guys, way to go.
