No. You do not have to be married for any aliyah. You just have to be Jewish and over 13 years old (or 12 for women). In Orthodox custom, only men can have aliyot.

What is the responsibility of a sponsor at a bar mitzvah?

What is the customary order of Aliyahs at a Bar Mitzvah?
In all the Bar and Bat Mitzvahs I have every attended, there has only been one aliyah which is carried out by the boy or girl whose Bar/Bat Mitzvah it is. Aliyah means "to rise," and is a name used when somebody is called up to read from the Torah. However, the Bar/Bat Mitzvah is commonly followed by a celebratory meal during which speeches may be given - in Hebrew, Yiddish and/or English depending on the family - both by and in honour of the Bar/Bat Mitzvah boy/girl. These might be mistaken for further aliyot which is, I suspect, why you ask what the order of aliyot is. In saying that, customs and traditions vary widely between different Jewish communties and families. Does anybody know if a Bar/Bat Mitzvah can have several aliyot?
