If I left it to my parents, I’m sure they would have rented a boring hall and made it look like their wedding. I wanted a teen party and I wanted it to be cool. I was into cars and skateboards, so I got them to put it in an auto museum, which none of my buddies had done, and the centerpieces were dudes on skateboards. I told them that I would do all the traditional stuff for the synagogue if I could have the party that wouldn’t embarrass me.

My parents did ask me for ideas about the party, and I’m glad they did. I was worried that they would want too much of a family affair. The ceremony followed the law, and I wanted the party to be something that would be mine. I wanted to let go and impress my friends. It had to be about sports to save face after all the stuff I took about going through bar mitzvah lessons. There weren’t too many Jewish signs, although my parents did want the candle lighting for the relatives. But I had a rock band, so the kids could get into it.
