Simple invitations with a splash of bold yellow were presented inside a test tube along with tongs to remove the scroll.
Green, white, and silver escort cards were modeled after the periodic table of elements and placed in test tubes with a signature “Z” logo.
The table cards, which mimicked the escort cards, were placed on a bed of real moss.
The chartreuse table linens peeked through Lucite chargers that were topped with a silver napkin and a menu placed in a test tube.
Tall cylinders were filled with green and blue pebbles, succulents, and lady slipper orchids.
Racks of test tubes with unusual buds surrounded the main centerpiece.
Guests were amazed by the “smoking” signature blue mocktails.
At the bar mitzvah boy’s request, the cake was kept simple -- a single layer topped with colorful twists.
Comfy green and pink chenille socks were provided so guests could kick off their shoes and dance all night long.
Custom lighting like these spiky spheres created a dramatic vibe that all the teens loved.
In addition to a custom logo spotlight, the bar mitzvah boy also had a movie montage made in his honor, which guests viewed in the center’s IMAX Theater.
While the teens had their own separate party area, the parents mingled in another section with food, decor, and music suited to adults’ tastes.
