Q: Ok this is my first time going to a bar mitzvah, so I have to wear like a suit right? and for the party do I wear the same suit or can I change into something more comfortable? And the Yamaha, lol, do they give them to you when you enter the temple if you're not Jewish??
A: If the service is in the morning- Wear a suit and tie and dress shoes. They will provide YALMUKES for you and they are usually places in a basket infront of the sanctuary. If the party is at night You can leave your jacket at home but wear a dress shirt, slacks and tie If the service is in the evening- Wear a suit, tie and dress shoes. they will provide a YALMUKE, you can take the jacket off and loosen the tie for the party. You usually dance in socks so take clean socks! Out of respect, wear a yalmuke even if you are not jewish! Have fun and party all night!
