I saw this and I was trying to figure out what it was. A birthday party? Doesn't look like camp.

(The Kallah doesn't look too happy either)

I know they are little, Maybe it wasn't true, but I once heard of two kids who were in a play, boy and girl over bar mitzvah and in the play he gave her a ring and she needed a get and was considered divorced.

These kids are obviously under bar-bas mitzvah, so it's probably not a problem. But I must say, the kallah doesn't look too happy. Not one smile in any of the pictures; in fact, she looks on the verge of tears sometimes.

I think it's absolutely adorable.

I had a feeling that it was a birthday party with a wedding theme, like momof4 said. Interesting. I would have just bought wedding decorations & party goods

It's nice to see your sensitive side, seven.
However, I don't think its all that great for chinuch reasons. I remember Shalhevet once saying that if you give your children chocolate milk all week, it's not a Shabbos treat. Along those lines, I've been to Bar Mitzvahs where I can't help but wonder, how will they top this for the chassuna?

Imho, a 6 year old can appreciate a birthday party with friends, ice cream sundaes and games or a craft project.

a girl in my dd's class made a mock wedding for her bas mitzva - everyone was assigned who they were going to be and should come dressed like the part. I guess it can be interesting .... if you're into it! Nice cake
