It will be just family and classmates.
Are there any nice ideas that aren't pricey and can be meaningful, memorable and fun?

Can you have a pool party at an indoor pool and a BBQ? Not expensive and fun.

I like the idea but then only the males can swim.
Any other creative ideas out there?

A bar mitzva is celebrated by a seudas mitzva

It’s a boy taking on the mitzvos, it’s a special monumental occasion.

It calls for a formal meal.

No need for expensive lighting and entertainment

As long as you have hamotzi and bentching it’s a formal meal

What about a breakfast after tefillin
More is not needed
Bagels, cream cheese, tuna, egg salad, if you want a hot dish shakshuka set up in a pan with steno under.

What time of year is the Bar Mitzvah? Can you do something outdoors? I have been to beautiful and casual backyard BBQ Bar Mitzvahs.
