QUAD CITIES LOCATIONS FOR YOUR BRIDAL SHOWER OR REHEARSAL DINNER

The Best Quad Cities Venues for Bridal Showers & Rehearsal Dinners

Planning a bridal shower or rehearsal dinner in the Quad Cities? From charming rustic settings to chic urban venues, this region offers a variety of options to suit any style. Here’s a curated list to help you find the perfect spot for your special celebration.

When deciding where to have your rehearsal dinner, you can consider things like:

Location How close it is to where your guests are staying or the wedding venue. Guests shouldn’t have to travel more than 45 minutes to get there. If it’s far, you can provide transportation.
Guest list Whether you’re having a small or large group. A small group might be comfortable in a private room at a restaurant or lounge. A larger group might need a banquet hall or ballroom.
Budget How much you want to spend. A good rule of thumb is to spend no more than one-thirtieth of the total cost of your wedding.
Food Whether you want to serve food that’s specific to the location or a contrast to your wedding meal.
Atmosphere Whether you want a casual or more formal setting.
Sound system If you plan on making speeches, you might want a room with a good sound system.
Venue Whether you can use a venue that’s already associated with your wedding, or if you want to choose a different venue.

Some other options for rehearsal dinner venues include:

A family home
A backyard
A public meeting hall
A hotel pool
A local gastropub
A nearby park

You should contact the venue three to six months in advance if you’re planning to rent it out.
