| We live in Bethesda and are looking for venues to have a low key, reform bar mitzvah for our son. Does anyone have a suggestion? We don't have over-the-top, nor do we have the means to do that. But our boy wants a party and doesn't want it in our backyard in May. Thx for any ideas on the moco or DC area! |

Last year DD was invited to three bar/bat mitzvahs at Rock Creek Mansion in Bethesda.

| Thanks for these suggestions! Any suggestions re: DJs who are not cheesy? |

| Village Center in Village of Friendship Heights, off Wisconsin Avenue at South Park. You would need a separate caterer. |

How about Israel (yes, the country) if you want to make it a meaningful family time, or 6th & I for a local but spiritual place?
If you are just talking about the party, I'd check out renting a rec center -- my sister did that for her wedding and it was both gorgeous and affordable. |

| We had ours at F Scotts. When you say not over the top is that not over the top crazy or small budget. Its a great space. Split level - dance floor on the bottom/bar restaurant on top. Kids take the bottom parents take the top. |

| Rec center bar/bat mitzvahs never come across as that celebratory. maybe if they are at night. DS went to a few during the day and they were Meh. |
