[quote=Anonymous]There are lots of ways to do this. If your daughter wants to do a service project, she can organize her guests into brigades of volunteers for the project. If she does something like a park cleanup, you can have a picnic afterwards in the park.

If you want to do just do a big lunch after the service, you can rent rooms at most county rec centers cheaply. If you get lots of takeout platters from restaurants, delis, or markets, you can keep the cost down considerably. The food will also probably be better than if you have it catered, since caterers offer a variety of trendy foods, but can't do all of them equally well. The downside is having to set it all up and serve it yourself. It also won't necessarily be kosher.

I suggest that you write down all of the elements you want in a bat mitzvah (lunch, out of town relatives, kiddush, DJ, activities for kids etc.) and rank order them. Also, establish a budget.Then, figure out how far down your ranked list you'll be able to go and still afford it.[/quote]
