We Are Having a Service Only

We are honored to join your family on this path of Jewish life and learning! Please read the important information below so that we can best serve your needs on your special day.

Am Shalom provides prayerbooks and kippot for all services. You are welcome to create a personalized siddur (prayerbook) or supplement to distribute. Your material must be pre-approved by the clergy one month in advance of your service.  

Our Bet Mitzvah coordinator will be in touch with you at various points throughout the process and will request the following:

• Day of Service Form 
  Note: You can adjust your anticipated attendance as your final RSVPs come in. 
• Invitation Draft
  We kindly request that all families share their invitation draft prior to printing or electronic distribution. Please email your draft to Dana at dponcher@amshalom.com.
• Bet Mitzvah Day of Service Fees (valid through June 2025)
  These include the Day of Service Fund Fee ($300), Service Security Fee ($200) and Chaperone Fee* ($180 for every 20 minors).
  *Please note we consider all children attending to be minors (not including siblings), regardless of whether their parents have been invited. Chaperone fees are based on a four hour minimum.
