[quote=Anonymous]It is expected to go to the service. That’s the actual bat mitzvah. Not the party. If dc can’t do it they can’t but it’s not really a pick and choose situation.

The kiddush after is optional because it’s just a nice way of giving people lunch. You don’t have to stay for it although it’s good food I usually!

Conservative dress for temple and anything goes depending on personal taste for party

If the invitation only has the child’s name on it then only they are invited. This is true of all events not just bat mitzvahs! If parents are invited, parents names are on invite.

Gifts can be anything and are personal to each family. If the kids aren’t close $36 is a good number. Gifts come in sets of $18. Although a lot of people land at $50. If the whole family is going then that sometimes indicates a closer connection which translates to more. $160/$270/$360/$500 etc.

You don’t have to give money. There are plenty of nice gifts to give someone if you’d rather. [/quote]
