Bella’s Bat Mitzvah Party: January 28, 2024 (Factory)

by Jonni Super· February 02, 2024· in Bar Mitzvah, Bat Mitzvah, Events· 0 comments

Bella’s Bat Mitzvah Party: January 28, 2024 My third time around with this family could not have been more special. We have grown accustomed to seeing each other in celebration, either in a synagogue, or at a home, but this is the first time we’ve come together at a fantastic kids party. Uncommon for this bat mitzvah, the party came first while Bella will be called to the Torah in June. But that was OK for everyone in attendance, no one was unhappy to be letting loose with some celebratin’ this Sunday evening in January. Slinky from the Magen Boys was on deck to raise the roof on the Factory Lounge, where this party was taking place. It was just a fun night. Bella looked stunning, and there was no time wasted to get this crowd on their feet. Mazal Tov guys, looking forward to wrapping this up in the summer, it will take a while to recover from this evening anyway.

by Jonni Super· January 29, 2024· in Bar Mitzvah, Bat Mitzvah, Events· 0 comments

Judah’s Bar Mitzvah: January 20, 2024 It’s always special for me when I have a connection to my clients, and double special when the event is the first one of the year. I am back from New Year’s vacation feeling invigorated and excited. Judah’s dad and I share an affinity for the bicycle, and have spent many a kilometres in the saddle chatting about this and that, and now this and that has come to pass, and it was a smashing success. We started off with a rehearsal at Beth Sholom for the family. Some reading from the Torah, some family fun, but mostly we were waiting for the Saturday night. So fast forward a few days, and I met up with the family at Duke’s Refresher on Front Street for what was going to be a crazy ‘jersey‘ party like none other. This is a location I have not yet been to so that adds to the excitement. Judah was great, we walked around to get acquainted with the place, took some chilled out photos before inviting his sisters and finally parents to join in. Then everything just went crazy as both sides of the family showed up and […]

Jonah & Aviva’s B’nei Mitzvah: September 21, 2019 This was one fabulous party that took place at the Warehouse in North York on a spectacular Saturday evening. Jonah and Aviva were up for some fun, as was the rest of the family, as was Jordan from the Magen Boys, …and fun is what we had. We started outside with some family photos, until we gathered the big family for some group pix. Once that was complete, we were off to the races, and so the party began. Schmoozing and snacking on delectables was par for the course, while the hora and speeches started things off. MC Jordan held down court while both Jonah and Aviva worked the crowd. Just a fun night at the beginning of this mitzvah season. Mazel Tov, guys!

Maya’s Bat Mitzvah: May 6, 2018 Maya’s bat mitzvah was a beautiful celebration of a young woman approaching adult hood. We started with some family photos outside The Warehouse in Downsview Park, and then it was just party all night. Magen Boys as usual raised the roof, there were drummers, there was a guy on stilts, there was just a whole bunch of stuff to entertain and a maze. Fern Cohen (event planner extraordinaire) brought everything together seamlessly. Maya was so graceful, the family was loving and kind, and her friends spoke so very highly of her, it was just one fantastic night. Mazel tov!!!

Adam’s Bar Mitzvah: October 7 & 8, 2017 Adam’s Bar Mitzvah took place at the stunning Maple Downs Country Club in Richmond Hill. The rehearsal the day before was beautiful and the ceremony on the Sunday even more spectacular. You can’t go wrong photographing at this venue; green everywhere in early October. I’ve known Adam’s parents for 20 years and it was great to reconnect with them. Sunday started with Adam and me walking around the club, photographing and having fun, before we eventually met up with the family and headed into the ceremony; Adam was fantastic, enough said. The tennis themed lunch was delicious, the amazing Kenny Munshaw holding down the musical end, and everything tied together beautifully by Karen Garscadden from Karen G Events. So good to see you guys after so many years, definitely looking forward to the next one.

We finished up at the synagogue and then went to the park to wrap it up. I was done and Ben took over to photograph the luncheon. Ben: I love these types of celebrations! Instead of a big party, they decided to have their closest family and loved ones over for a beautiful catered brunch at their home for the afternoon. The totally relaxed, unscripted and mutual love for everyone in the room is always such a pleasure to photograph. The Story of the Mitzvah HERE All Photos HERE
