Do you have to imprint your Bar/Bat Mitzvah favor?

This question constantly comes up when someone is looking for a party favor. When they are seeking some kind of apparel, the answer is of course yes, why else would you come to us, if you didn't want an imprint you could go into any clothing store and buy blank apparel, even though our price is usually cheaper then most stores. But the answer is a little more complicated then a simple yes. The trick to a successful apparel imprint is to make it so the kids receiving it won't feel goofy wearing it. For example if you imprint on a sweatshirt covering the whole back "KEVIN MITCHELL'S BAR MITZVAH DANCE PARTY- May 25, 2007", the chances are no one except Kevin Mitchell is ever going to wear it. But, if instead you imprint a cd disc with KM's Dance Party - 5/25/07 on the disc, the kids will have no problem wearing it.
If the favor is not an apparel item, you don't necessarily have to put an imprint on it but we always suggest doing so as long as you follow our example above of doing something that the kids won't find to be too much. The kids of today don't want someone's name plastered all over a favor, be subtle don't overwhelm them.
If you are purchasing a favor for the adults such as a picture frame or wine stopper you definitely shouldn't imprint it because no one wants to display something in their house with an imprint of someone's Bar Mitzvah on it. If you are giving a piece of chocolate there is no reason not to imprint it, again subtle is the way to go. Check under our catagories for adult guest favors and chocolate for some great ideas. At BarMitzvahFavors.com we specialize in finding just the right favor to match your theme but more importantly we find the right favor to match your budget, so check out our web site or give as a call at 561-750-8683.

What's the deal with setup and other additional charges for Bar/Bat Mitzvah?

Almost every product supplied not only by us but by other companies doing bar mitzvah party favors comes from an outside vendor. For the most part everyone of these vendors charges a setup or screen charge, a paper/email proof charge, & a typesetting charge, if typesetting is required. These charges are always charged back to the customer in some way or another. At BarMitzvahFavors.com we try to be as up front with our customers as possible. When we quote you a price we want you to be confident that is the price you are going to pay. For example when we quote you a price of $5.00/item for an 100 piece order you know you are going to pay $500.00 plus shipping for that order, no extras, no surprises. Most other companies will give you a quote and then you get your invoice and there will be additional charges for a setup, a proof and possibly typesetting. Out goal at BarMitzvahFavors.com is to make purchasing your Bar Mitzvah Favors the least stressful part of your whole party. At BarMitzvahFavors.com we specialize in finding just the right favor to match your theme but more importantly we find the right favor to match your budget, so check out our web site or give as a call at 561-750-8683.

Do you have to give a favor out at a Bar/Bat Mitzvah?

The question "Do I really have to give out a favor at our party after spending so much money on the party already?" is always posed to us when someone starts their search for a Bar/Bat Mitzvah favor. Our answer is always the same, no you don't but if you want your son or daughter's party to be spoken about in a positive way at school the next week we highly suggest doing so. This doesn't mean you have to break the bank on the favors to either the kids or adults but you should always give them something at the end of the evening to first of all say thank you for coming and second of all to remember the night by. When or where the tradition of giving a party favor at the end of a Bar/Bat Mitzvah started I couldn't tell you but is has become as commonplace as reading a poem during the candlelighting ceremony. So even if you are on a limited budget always try to fit somekind of favor in to hand out at the end of the evening. At BarMitzvahFavors.com we specialize in finding just the right favor to match your theme but more importantly we find the right favor to match your budget, so check out our web site or give as a call at 561-750-8683
