Frequently Asked Questions
What should I wear?
This is a dressy, fun event with so much to celebrate! "Cocktail attire" is appropriate - suits, blazers, dresses, pantsuits, whatever you would wear to a party! Be ready to dance. At the service, shoulders should be covered with a shirt, sweater or shawl. There will be a basket of yarmulkes outside the sanctuary - traditionally men often choose to wear them; anyone is welcome to wear one but it's certainly not required.
What's the overall schedule?
Please arrive promptly at 5:30pm so everyone can be settled and ready for the service to begin. If you need to arrive late, we understand. You can come in quietly and sit in the back and that is not a problem. The service will be followed by a cocktail hour and games for the kids, then dinner and dancing the night away!
When do I pick up my child?
The party will end at 11pm. We understand this is late, but hope you can party until the end! Please have your child let us know if you are picking up early so we don't worry!
Where do I book a hotel?
For your convenience, we have a hotel block reserved nearby at SpringHill Suites in Voorhees NJ (click here to reserve). Of course, please feel free to stay anywhere else you'd like, there are a number of good options nearby. We appreciate you traveling in!
Phones?
Please silence all phones and watches and refrain from using devices during the service. Please don't take photos during the service, but they're definitely encouraged during the party and we'd love to see your best shots!
Other questions?
If there are any other questions we have neglected to cover, please text or email us!
Mitzvah Project

Ari is fundraising and volunteering with Arden for All, an arts-education program that helps bring theatre experiences and teaching-artist instruction to students who might not otherwise have access.

Ari has performed with Haddonfield Theater Arts Company (HTAC) for years and loves acting — so for his mitzvah project, he wanted to share that joy and confidence-building experience with kids who have fewer opportunities.

He fundraised by distributing Candygrams around town for Valentine's Day and raised over $1,000. He's also volunteering in the classes with students in the city, helping them engage with performance and storytelling.

Thank you for supporting Ari's project and the power of arts education.
