BAT MITZVAH OF MADISON MEYER OF WEST BLOOMFIELD

Family: Rochelle and Dr. Barry Meyer, siblings Harleigh and Jack
Venue: Temple Shir Shalom, West Bloomfield, and Wabeek Country Club, Bloomfield Hills

Date: Jan. 19, 2013
Photographer: Brian Masserman of Masserman Photography, Video and Design Services, Keego Harbor
Party Planner: Mom Rochelle Meyer and Designs by Debbie LeClaire, West Bloomfield
Notes: "My daughter loves movies, and we loved watching the Academy Awards together every year, so I suggested the 'At the Maddy's' theme, and she loved it," says
mom Rochelle Meyer. Meyer chose 15 Academy Award-winning women as well as iconic women in movies, from Gone With the Wind and Out of Africa to My Fair Lady,
and Masserman superimposed Maddy's face onto poster signage throughout the space and placecards on each table. "They turned out beautifully," says Meyer. "People

didn't realize it was Maddy until we told them. She was thrilled." —I
