Park Avenue Club transformed into a ski lodge at Ryan’s ski-Mitzvah at Park Avenue Club in Florham Park, NJ. But, the weekend began with a beautiful photo shoot at Temple Emanu-El in Westfield, NJ, where Ryan became a Bar Mitzvah. The collection of stained glass windows at Emanu-El are unique and made for a beautiful backdrop in pictures. We loved being a part of Ryan’s Mitzvah after photographing Mom and Dad’s wedding!

The celebration continued with about 200 of Ryan’s family and friends at Park Avenue Club. Planner Dayna Platnick of Dayna Platnick Events brought the Colorado lodge look to the East Coast with white florals paired with bare wood tables and candle centerpiece accents. The candles during Ryan’s candlelighting were birch wood columns with tea lights and the dance stages were a winter white. Greg from Pure Energy got the party “energy” going and our friend Steve from Jersey Street Productions provided the illuminated kids’ lounge tables, sofas and customized pillows. Congratulations, Ryan!
