Noa is a very special girl and I was so honored to spend the day with her on her Bat Mitzvah celebration.  Noa exemplified the spirit behind the Bat Mitzvah by sharing her celebration with her friend Olivia.  The two friends combined the ceremony and party with both sets of friends and family.  The combination made for a fabulous celebration!  We started the day at Temple Beth Elohim for formal family portraits.  After the ceremony, friends and family celebrated with the two girls at Brae Burn Country Club.  Here are some of my favorite images from the day.

Noa and Olivia made sure to include both families in some combined family photos.  Everyone was so excited to celebrate the two girls!  Noa also included some of her closest girlfriends along with their moms for some “not-so-formal” photos.

Brae Burn was decorated with a fabulous beach theme in sand and blue colors.  The kids had a special beach cabana room just for them.  The blue and white themed candy table was gorgeous.  And I loved the surf board Noa had for friends to sign!

The girls were introduced into the party together and combined all of their formalities from the hora to the candle lighting.

And what Mitzvah is complete with out fantastic games and dancing.  Twice the guest list was totally twice the fun!
