Bar/bat mitzvah question? - Oboe - 03-24-2014 04:54 PM

I am Christian and have been invited to one bar and one bat mitzvah. I would appreciate any knowledge on the subject of etiquette. However my main question is about attire. First should I wear the same dress to the service and party or different dresses. Second should I get a different dress for each bar/bat mitzvah or can I wear the same one? Finally I always see pictures on social networks (Instagram and facebook) of people posing in fancy dresses about to go to bat/r mitzvahs. So is it okay if I don't hang out with people before and I just go?

different dresses. dress for the service like you would go to church. dress for the party like a party. The service is not a party. other people are there to say prayers for their deceased loved ones, o get spiritual guidance, to try to find a way through life's difficulties. So don't forget that the doors of the temple are open to all, and be respectful during the service.

"hang out before" before the party sure. before the service ? Huh?>
