We had our wedding at Monte Bello in June and could not have been happier with how the day went! It…read morewas the only venue we actually toured in person and we knew it was it as soon as we saw it. First of all, the outside is absolutely stunning- no matter which way you turn there's a prime photo backdrop. Secondly, the built in bridal and groom suites are amazing. The bridal suite is designed for getting ready with a separate area with mirrors and vanity, built in rod for the perfect wedding dress photo. The grooms suite is the perfect man cave, with a poker table, pool and foosball tables and signed jerseys and guitars hung up all around. The venue also renovated in between us signing and the day of our wedding and they made it even better than I could have ever imagined- a lot more neutral walls for photos and a women's bathroom that was jaw dropping when I saw it for the first time. Throughout our planning process, we worked closely with Abbey who was nothing but helpful and amazing. She was so communicative and always answered my hundreds of questions promptly. Food tasting went swimmingly and the Raise the Bar event (cocktail and wine tasting for signature cocktails and add ons) was so fun. Throughout these events, it was so clear how dedicated the entire team is to making sure we have the best wedding possible. The real tell was the day of the wedding. I've heard that most venue coordinators don't do all that much the day of in terms of helping with third party vendors so that was my expectation going in: I didn't have a wedding planner so I had assigned all my bridesmaids tasks just in case anything needed to be done. Let me just say- Abbey and the other venue staff took care of everything. All the vendors (florist, photobooth rental, band) came and set up seamlessly without me needing to think twice about it. Abbey even helped with coordinating the timing for the professional during the ceremony. We and all our guests had a blast, the food and drinks were amazing. We got so many compliments on everything, especially our signature cocktails! If you're looking for a wedding venue, I seriously cannot recommend Monte Bello enough!

My wedding day at The Monte Bello Estate was beyond words! Everything ended up more beautiful than…read moreI could've imagined even with the light rain that day. My venue coordinator Lauren and the whole team last minute changed my ceremony location due to the rain and set everything up in a new spot outside by the clock tower so my guests would be able to walk on concrete and not the wet grass. That is the upside of choosing this venue, it is so large there are so many options and no matter what it will be beautiful! My guests raved how delicious the food was, I had multiple guests the next day and even weeks after telling me it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding! Our signature cocktails we chose were a hit and our guests enjoyed them throughout cocktail hour and the reception! Lauren our venue coordinator eased all my stress the day of and she was so attentive to me and my family. After the ceremony the venue had mine and my husbands favorite drinks on standby and a tray of appetizers for us. My mom even wanted a different white wine from what they were serving and they grabbed it for her right away! Before the wedding day the venue even does events so you can have your food tasting and then a separate day to experience their signature cocktails and desserts and see the add-ins you can include for your wedding day. The guest bathrooms were just remodeled as well and made a great backdrop for my guests to take pictures in! The reception space, the big glass windows, and the landscaping made for a perfect day that we will always remember! I cannot emphasize enough how happy we were with the Monte Bello Estate for our wedding!

I recently hosted my wedding day at The Bridge Lemont. Their space is located in the heart of…read moredowntown Lemont. The space is an old antique warehouse that was transformed into a wedding venue about five years ago. The venue feels lofty and rustic yet grand. We fell in love with the space for its raw beauty, convenience to expressways, and how much variety their one stop venue offered. They host events from weddings, showers, corporate events, community events, and more! For weddings, they have an indoor & outdoor ceremony space, cocktail hour area, reception room that can seat up to 250 people, bridal suite, and more! Their website is very transparent for pricing, booking availability, and photos of their space. They host an annual bridal expo featuring most of their preferred vendors and offer small booking discounts throughout the year. We worked with a number of these vendors for our big day and had a very positive experience with each! On top of the venue/ceremony fee, they do also provide bar package costs/booking. I could not recommend The Bridge more for your special day! Our guests raved about how beautiful everything was with the convenience of being in the suburbs.

My cousin's 15th was held here: a horrid experience. The service staff was poorly coordinated, did…read morenot deliver on performance, severely late on time for food and dessert, and the food itself was not suitable for a large party due to its small portion and lackluster taste. The owner did not communicate or organize properly with the parents or their internal staff, caring more about their own status over the parents and guests benefit. Furthermore, the venue did not have working AC and was hotter on the inside than outside, despite it being upgrade recently. Moreover, its size, layout, and design was cheap and an eyesore the whole party. Overall it was not a good venue and should be avoided.

All their rooms were in the proper place. The outside area for a wedding was remarkable. The food with some of the most incredible food I've ever had at an event like this.

I'm not sure if the cake came from here but the cake was so moist and delicious and the icing had just the right amount of sweetness. The salad with pasta and vegetables with a beautiful flower on the side was delicious. They were very free with the drinks and top shelf liquor. And there was always a server ready to go get you a drink if you didn't want to get it yourself. I am so impressed with this place.
