Oak Brook’s Favorite Venue to Host a Baby Shower
Pregnancy is an exciting yet stressful time. That’s why planning a shower that allows the mother-to-be a chance to celebrate in a relaxing way is essential.
Oak Brook Bath & Tennis Club is one of Chicagoland suburbs’ best well-kept secrets. Our rustic clubhouse sits among 20 acres of green pastures and lush woodlands—making for the perfect private getaway for a baby shower. Its secluded location yet close proximity to major highways only adds to the appeal of this venue space.
Whether you’re planning a casual shower with a few games and snacks or a big celebration to match an adorable theme, Oak Brook Bath & Tennis Club offers versatile outdoor and indoor settings for this special day.
Step 1: CHOOSE A DAY & TIME
The time you select for your shower is important. So many people opt to have their shower in the mid-afternoon, giving guests flexibility to partake in fun that carries on throughout the afternoon.
The day you choose is equally important. If you’re considering having your shower on a Sunday, you’re in luck, as Sundays tend to come with some great discounts.
Step 2: SELECT YOUR CUSTOMIZABLE MENU
There certainly is no shortage of baby shower themes to inspire the backdrop we’ll create together at Oak Brook Manor. Here are just a few to choose from:
Baby In Bloom
Garden showers are the sweetest. Plants, floral signage, and a pondside backdrop are just a few flowery touches you can add to your special day.
Little Camper
Gone camping? Create a woodsy shower display with picnic eats and plenty of rustic touches.
About to Pop
Is your mommy-to-be about to pop? This theme offers the perfect excuse to break out the popcorn.
Step 3: DESIGNING A MENU THAT SPARKS NOSTALGIA
Every shower needs good food, right? We’re not just talking about the blindfolded baby food samplings. Chic Chef Catering, our exclusive caterer, can help bring life to your shower’s menu. Some of our favorites to recommend are our brunch offerings, which include an assortment of individual quiches, praline French toast, and almond and cheese coffee cakes. Do you know what goes great with brunch? A mimosa bar.
Amenities
The clubhouse comfortably seats up to 200 guests for a plated meal and 250 for a cocktail reception. Our experts will work diligently to include any features you could possibly desire in your dream wedding.
