Israeli Bat Mitzvahs are becoming increasingly extravagant
By Haaretz Staff and Channel 10
Tags: Haaretz.com TV, night life 
Haaretz.com/Channel 10 daily feature for January 27, 2008.

Bat Mitzvahs, which used to be celebrated in rather modest family gatherings in Israel, have now emerged onto a new scene, and those whose parents can afford it, celebrate no less extravagantly than they would their weddings.
