Re: Idlewild in flossmoor

  • Never been to a wedding there, but have been to a Christmas party!  All I can say, it was very nice, and the food was great!  hope this helps!
  • sounds good - thank you!
  • what  do you want to know? I used to  be a manager there
  • curious to know how the food is and also how the room works for a reception of about 250 - given the unique space/lay out. i've never known anyone who had a wedding there, so curious to hear the pros/cons.

    I cannot  say on the food since they have gotten a new chef since i left.  There is not a lot you can do since it is  L shaped.  250 is not hard since I personally have  gotten alot more in.  The  dance floor usually in the SW corner directly across from the bar. The head table is usually set on center windows  and the tables are offset in rows of 2 in front the head tabler and on the sides  rows of 3 tables you  could do  a square head table  in the center  of the room. Cocktails  are in  the lobby in the bar and they  will   take everything out is you  want  or  bring things in.
  • I have heard good things from people who have been there in the past.  One of my mom's friends went to 2 different weddings there in the past as they were 2 sisters who loved Idlewild and my mom's friend said the food was good.  My fiance and I both really liked the venue and we're planning on booking there.  The only thing I am not a fan of is that the bar is all the way in the corner of the L shape, but that's not that big of a deal to me personally.  Good luck to you!
