Maddie’s Bat Mitzvah party at Virgin Hotel Nashville was nothing short of spectacular. Hosted in the hotel’s restaurant space, this unique Nashville venue created the perfect backdrop for a night full of dancing, family, and unforgettable memories. Maddie’s theme — Diamonds & Denim — shined through every detail, from her glittery Chuck Taylors to the custom denim jackets and hats that guests could design at the live patch station.

From the moment Maddie made her grand entrance down the stairs with her two best friends, the energy never stopped. She kicked off the night in a chic denim dress before later changing into a sparkling all-white gown that had her glowing on the dance floor. Her little brother got his own spotlight moment too, wowing the crowd by breaking out the worm during his entrance!

One of my favorite hype dance crews kept the dance floor packed all night, and Maddie was right in the middle of it — smiling, dancing, and celebrating with her closest family and friends. Guests sipped on signature cowgirl-inspired mocktails made just for Maddie, while the adults enjoyed their own separate lounge area with cocktails and space to relax between dancing. Spangler Entertainment kept the music, games, and lighting flowing seamlessly, making sure the celebration had something for everyone.

Some of the most meaningful moments of the night came from Maddie’s connection with her family. From portraits on the penthouse balcony overlooking the city to her Hora with her brother lifted at the same time, every image reflected just how loved she is. The night wrapped up with Maddie and her mom sharing a dance and a hug on the floor, surrounded by the energy of their friends and family.

This celebration came together beautifully thanks to Jess with Finn & Olive Events, whose expert planning ensured every detail — from décor to flow of events — was seamless and stylish.

As a Nashville Bat Mitzvah photographer, this is exactly why I love capturing mitzvah parties — they’re filled with traditions, personal touches, and once-in-a-lifetime celebrations. Maddie’s Bat Mitzvah was a night to remember, and I feel so lucky to have been the one to document it.
