Our own idea

The mechitza,
finally on purpose.

A mechitza is the partition that divides men and women at an Orthodox simcha. It has to be there. It almost never looks like anyone meant it to be.

Often the Mechitsa is the one and only eye sore of your event. This does not have to be the case anymore.

DeLight

So we build a different one.

We custom-design a mechitza for your occasion — either to blend into the decor you've already chosen, or to be used as a focal point in its own right. It is lit as part of the room rather than dropped into the middle of it.

You choose the colour, the shape and the lighting. Nothing about it is off a shelf, which is the point: the one object in the hall that usually looks borrowed becomes the one people photograph.

What you pick

01

The colour

Matched to your decor, your flowers or your palette — or deliberately set against them so it reads as a designed object.

02

The shape

Built to the room and to the length you need, rather than a fixed frame you have to design around.

03

The lighting

Lit from within, washed from the floor, pin-spotted, or left dark and let the room light it. This is the part nobody else offers.

Decorative and lighting work from recent DeLight events. Tell us what your hall looks like and we'll show you what we'd do with the partition.

About the name

MyChitsa.

Because it's yours — your colour, your shape, your room. The pun is deliberate and we're not sorry about it.

The hall looked magnificent. We especially loved the mechitza.

MyChitsa is quoted like everything else — against your venue, your guest numbers and your budget. There is no standard size and no standard price.
