I have golfed here many times over the past few years and heard great things about their wedding receptions, so knew that it would also be a great choice for a baby shower with friends and family. We booked our date about four months in advance and worked closely with the event coordinator, Róisín Daly who was outstanding throughout the entire process from start to finish. She provided a thorough checklist of how to prepare for the event, along with the materials they provide and anything additional we would bring. On the day of our shower, Róisín, Jennifer and Martin were all available to help us set up and ensure that the serving staff followed the timing of our schedule. The Gallery room was the perfect size for 60 of our guests, offering scenic views of the 1st and 10th holes of the golf course. Everyone raved about the presentation and quality of the food, from the appetizers to the beautifully plated main course. Following dessert, we had a couple hours to play some games, mingle, and enjoy ourselves. Our experience was truly seamless, with great communication from Róisín and a perfectly executed event by their entire staff. Our guests had a wonderful time and the feedback was extremely positive. We would highly recommend this venue if you're looking for a classy event with friends and family, I can assure you we will be hosting more with them in the future. Thanks Róisín and team! Best, Charlie & Kristine

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.

You heard the buzz of quiet, happy conversations overall. No loud laughing or voices. Just as it should be. Peaceful, warm and comforting. I haven't mentioned the food yet. Wow! Just wow! Every kind of meat, chicken, fish, lobster and shrimp, vegetables, finger dumplings, potatoes, rice, salad station, and carving station. And the desserts! Chocolate covered strawberries, poppy seed cake, custards, and more, and rum balls! Oh the rum balls were fantastic! I wish I could buy a dozen! Please support this family-owned business any way you can. They are wonderful!

This year we have been asked to move to the foyer or to whatever room may be available as they rely on rentals for these rooms. We agreed and we have been playing where they tell us to go. We pay $2.00 and now are asked to sign in and pay the fee. Additionally, we always were given water and coffee, and are now told that would no longer receive free water or coffee. When several of our members complained about this, a call was made to one of our members that we were rude to their staff, and they are not going to put up with this. I believe The Community House is ignoring the elderly in their community and are actually forcing us out of this venue in favor of younger members. Why else deprive us of free water.

DO NOT SPEND MONEY HERE. I WOULD GIVE 0/100 STARS, IF I COULD. THE OWNER IS UNHINGED AND DESPERATE…read moreFOR ATTENTION. GO LOOK AT REVIEWS HE'S MENTALLY UNSTABLE!!! After many rounds at this course, I always thought it was fun and cheap. Well, now I know exactly why it's cheap -- because the place is a disaster. The tee boxes are cratered, the greens are awful, and apparently the only thing the owner cares about is throwing tantrums over a single divot on a course already covered in them. We were on hole 15 when my buddy took a normal swing and made a divot -- nothing unusual, especially on a course with 80 divots per tee box. Out of nowhere, this guy comes storming up in flip‑flops, no socks, a dingy polo, golf clubs tossed in the back, and a six‑year‑old trailing behind him, and starts barking orders like a drill sergeant. He demands my buddy fill the divot. Fine -- my buddy says he will. Then my other friend tees off, and this clown is still standing there, arms crossed, repeating himself like a malfunctioning robot: "Fix that divot now." My buddy fills it, and instead of leaving, this man announces he's going to "watch everyone swing." Completely deranged behavior. We politely tell him it's time for him to move along. Words are exchanged. Then this genius decides to take our cart keys and tells us it's "our time to leave" and that we can walk back. We're stranded on hole 15 with no idea who this lunatic is. We call the pro shop to complain. They apologize and say they have no idea who that guy is. One of our buddies walks all the way back to the clubhouse -- and guess who's behind the counter? Flip‑flops himself. He now claims he's the owner and tells my buddy to "get the f**k off the course." My buddy calls us, so we start walking back. An employee sees one of us walking and gives him a ride, telling him this isn't the first time customers have had issues with the owner -- apparently this guy has a whole history of meltdowns. As we're walking, the owner drives past us in a cart, taunting us about how "nice it is to ride since it's such a long walk." Truly the behavior of a grown man who has lost control of his life. Back at the clubhouse, we ask for a refund since we started on the back nine and only made it to hole 15. The front desk lady basically shrugs and says she can't do anything because "he's the owner" and this kind of thing "isn't uncommon." Then Mr. Unhappy himself shows up again and tells us we're "f**king stupid" if we think he's giving us a refund because he's the owner and he "has the right." At that point, we knew we weren't getting our money back, but we wanted documentation of how insane this was, so we asked for the cops to be called. The owner then tries to threaten us with DUIs and says this will "blow up in your face." The cops arrive, listen to the story, and even they think the situation is ridiculous -- but since he's the owner, if he wants us trespassed, that's what happens. We told the officers we understood and that we weren't expecting a refund at that point. We left, trespassed -- which is honestly a blessing, because why would we ever want to spend another dollar here? To top it off, the buddy who walked all the way to the pro shop had a contract ready to spend serious money with this place. That deal is dead now. This was a TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE with a man who clearly needs help. We were just the unlucky targets of his miserable, frustrated life. NEVER GIVE THIS PLACE YOUR MONEY!!!

The fire alarm never went off, which is an extremely serious safety issue. I had my dog with me, and if I hadn't returned to the room quickly, things could have gone very badly. I immediately reported the issue to the front desk. They moved me to another room, but when I asked for reasonable compensation (like waiving the pet fee), the manager flat-out refused. No apology, no concern, no acknowledgment of the danger or inconvenience. Just "your compensation is a new room." A hotel with non-functioning fire alarms and faulty heating equipment should not be dismissing a situation like this. Their response showed zero accountability and zero concern for guest safety. I will not be staying here again, and I strongly recommend that management address their fire safety systems before someone gets seriously hurt.

They made sure the water containers on each table were always full, the coffee was hot, and there was hot water for tea, and a variety of refreshments. The staff made sure that the tables remained free of clutter. Occasionally, they walked around and collected what appeared to be garbage. This is a big glass building with several conference rooms.

I am forever THANKFUL. Their experience, organization, and just willingness to commit to making this day so special. From the start, we loved their food and knew immediately they were it. We even did an additional tasting to look at other options on their menu. Wedding day ... everything that could have happened to us ... happened (never returning to our venue ever). Luckily none of the guests found out because they were all distracted about the food. During contrail hour, the staff was nonstop bringing appetizers because people were taking thirds, fourths, etc. & I'm still hearing about it! Then dinner was exquisite. The portion of the food is very notable... GENEROUS and FILLING. Even my pickiest family members were asking for more. We had a lot of DIYs and they accommodated all of them. Even the ones I brought last minute. And the staff -- every single person -- was so kind, friendly, and just lovely to be around. The bartenders were absolute champs. They even went above and beyond to make us happy while our venue was being EXTRAORDINARILY difficult. Stephanie even came to help us de stress us & the bartenders were just phenomenal - trust me, our 170 guests do not mess around with an open bar. In conclusion, our venue.. never again. Marie's catering would choose all over again! Thank you again!! I don't have photos of our food at the moment, but wanted to share photos because it ended up being such a beautiful day
