Your Dream Bachlorette Party in Lemont Downtown
After you’ve found the one, the most important ‘yes’ in your life will undoubtedly be from the selected few people you ask to stand by your side on that day.
Of course, everyone is excited for the big day with gorgeous dresses, hair, makeup, and an evening spent dancing the night away. But dare we say, the best memories come from celebrating the end of your single status with your nearest and dearest at your bachelorette party.
You’ll want to forward this blog post to your Maid of Honor as we’ve come up with the perfect celebrations in Lemont Downtown for every type of bride and groom.
The Kick-Off Dinner
After everyone is off work and flights land on a Thursday/Friday, you’ll want to fill up their bellies with good food and use the dinner as a planning sesh to review your itinerary.
Here are a few of our favorites:
Wooden Paddle
With plates made to share, this is a spot where you can order one of everything and pass their wood-fired pies around the table. The craft cocktails are perfect for those who want a little pre-game. If you’re not drinking, the mocktails and fresh lemonade are definitely worth a trip. Reserve a table or the entire venue for your gathering.
Barrel & Vine
For the bride and groom who like to get dressed up and feel like royalty, splurge for a few tables at Barrel & Vine. The appetizers alone are worth the trip and we recommend starting with a few charcuterie boards while you sip cocktails and decide on the perfect mains.
Pro Tip: Hire a documentary-style photographer for glamorous, moody shots of your entire bridal party before the party really gets started. We love Molly Hebda Photography, JR Owen Co, and Hilltop Photo Co.
The Big Activity
Get out and enjoy the fresh air and make some memories with the people who have been there for you on your path to finding the one. Plan a big activity that matches your couple’s personality.
Row Beauty and Hair Co.
The wedding day shouldn’t be the only time you pamper your squad. Book a spa day at Row Beauty with blowouts, lashes, and makeup. You can use it as a trial run for your big day or a nice prep before a night out.
For even more spa treatments consider facials, botox, or other therapies at Allure Skin Studio, Solana Aesthetics, or Aqua De Vida Med Spa.
That Girl + Co
We love the idea of testing everyone’s skills and learning something new as a group. Book a private workshop at That Girl + Co building chunky knit blankets, wood carving, photography, or candles.
Pro Tip: Book this for a weeknight if you can for better availability. The space fills up fast! If you’ve got a bigger group, consider booking a private workshop.
Aster Gardens
If your bride is planning on creating her own flower arrangements, book a workshop at Aster Gardens to learn from a pro how to make table centerpieces or how the new couple can keep their garden or houseplants alive.
The Last Hoorah
Put on a fun sash and head out on the town for a night of fun.
Pollyanna Social
We can all get behind a local craft cocktail tasting. You can order food from local spots to keep the hangover at bay and take home a bottle of your favorites.
Pro Tip: Contact Pollyanna Social about renting the space for other bridal events like the bridal shower, engagement party, and reception. The space holds about 50 people which is perfect for an intimate gathering.
One Eleven Wine & Martini Parlour
In addition to delicious house martinis, One Eleven has a self-service wine bar to create your own “wine flight”. Signature charcuterie, salads, and sweets pair with soulful music to make for a perfect nightcap.
Take a ride on the wild side with American Bar Car’s Quarry Queen. Rent out the private tractor ride for $350 and enjoy a tour of the I&M Canal Pathways and through Lemont Downtown. You’ll enjoy drinks, music, and many laughs with your friends.
Goodbye Brunch
Next Mex
You haven’t lived until you’ve shared a little gossip and caught up over chips, salsa, and a few tasty enchiladas. With a little bit of something for everyone, we think Next Mex is one of the best places for a group. Order tacos for the table and don’t miss their delicious margaritas.
