Imagine celebrating your bridal shower aboard a luxurious private yacht, surrounded by your closest friends, with stunning views of Chicago’s iconic skyline and Lake Michigan sparkling in the background. At Anita Dee Yacht Charters, we transform this dream into an unforgettable reality. Our luxury brunch yacht bridal shower packages offer the perfect blend of elegance, exclusivity, and personalized service that makes your pre-wedding celebration truly memorable.
Why Choose a Yacht Bridal Shower in Chicago?
Traditional bridal shower venues are a dime a dozen in Chicago, but a luxury yacht bridal shower? That’s an experience your guests will talk about for years to come. A waterfront celebration aboard a private yacht offers something truly unique: an exclusive, intimate setting combined with breathtaking panoramic views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago River.
Unlike crowded restaurants or hotel ballrooms, a yacht provides the perfect backdrop for photos, meaningful conversations, and celebrations that feel both sophisticated and adventurous. The gentle motion of the water, the fresh lake breeze, and the twinkling Chicago skyline create an atmosphere that simply cannot be replicated on land. Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering of 20 guests or a grand celebration with over 100 attendees, a yacht bridal shower delivers an experience that’s as unique as your love story. All of our private yacht events comply with Chicago Harbor Rules and US Coast Guard safety requirements.
What’s Included in Anita Dee’s Bridal Shower Packages
Gourmet Brunch & Customizable Catering
At the heart of every exceptional bridal shower is exceptional food. Anita Dee Yacht Charters partners with Chicago’s finest caterers—including Catered by Design, Beyond Catering & Events, and Harry Caray’s Catering—to deliver gourmet brunch experiences tailored to your preferences. From artfully presented cuisine to award-winning dishes, every menu is customized to reflect your vision and dietary needs. Our catering options ensure that your bridal shower menu is as memorable as the celebration.
Want to bring your own caterer? We welcome licensed and insured caterers for an additional fee, giving you complete flexibility in creating the perfect brunch experience. Our wedding events team can coordinate with your preferred vendor to ensure seamless execution. We maintain comprehensive General Commercial Liability Insurance to protect all guests and vendors during your celebration.
Premium Bar & Beverage Service
No bridal shower is complete without celebratory drinks. Our premium bar packages include professional bartending service, high-quality glassware, and a selection of mixers and garnishes. Choose from a premium open bar featuring top-shelf brands, a beer and wine selection, or a brunch-specific package complete with mimosas, Bloody Marys, and signature cocktails.

Entertainment & Customizable Ambiance
Music sets the mood, and our state-of-the-art sound systems deliver crystal-clear audio throughout both yachts.
