[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think your idea sounds great, so let's start there! No need to change a thing, and to respond to your concern about the kids, it is very "typical" for the invited guests to attend the service, then go home and return for a party in the evening. I love the idea of an intimate family luncheon celebration, and the he still gets to have a fun time with his friends later! To add my two cents fwiw, where do you go to services on the high holidays? Or any other times? Could you talk to that rabbi about having your son's bar mitzvah at that synagogue? I ask only bc it may have more meaning for your son to do it in a synagogue rather than a restaurant (although if he doesn't feel a connection with a synagogue, that may not be true). I know that temple dues are expensive, but most synagogues are very accomodating to adjusting the dues to something affordable for you - the executive director of our synagogue does this confidentially for us every year.
