Indian Lake Theaters Hosts Ladies’ Night Featuring “Bridesmaids”

Hit comedy “Bridesmaids” at Indian Lake Theater, December 13, 2025.

Dust off your wedding dress or pull out that bridesmaid gown collecting dust in the back of your closet — Indian Lake Theater is hosting a special Ladies Night screening of Bridesmaids on December 13, 2025, and you're invited to dress the part.

This isn't just another movie night. For $20, you'll get admission to see this modern comedy classic on the big screen, plus a decadent chocolate sampler from Barkeater Chocolates and your choice of a Cutwater cocktail or non-alcoholic beverage to sip during the show. And if you can't get enough chocolate (who can?), additional Barkeater Chocolates will be available for purchase — perfect for enjoying during the movie or taking home as gifts.

A hilarious box office smash.

If you've never seen Bridesmaids, prepare yourself for one of the funniest — and most unexpectedly touching — comedies of the past decade. Kristen Wiig stars as Annie, a woman whose life is falling apart just as her best friend Lillian (Maya Rudolph) announces her engagement. Despite being broke and heartbroken, Annie agrees to serve as maid of honor, throwing herself into the chaos of wedding planning while competing with a wealthy, polished bridesmaid named Helen (Rose Byrne) for Lillian's attention.

The talented ladies of “Bridesmaids.”

What follows is a wild ride through bridal showers, dress fittings, Vegas bachelorette disasters, and food poisoning incidents you won't soon forget. The film balances outrageous humor with genuine emotion, exploring female friendship with refreshing honesty.

Melissa McCarthy steals every scene she's in, Chris O'Dowd brings sweetness as a state trooper who sees Annie's potential, and the ensemble cast creates comedy magic together.

Released in 2011, Bridesmaids proved that women could carry raunchy comedies just as well as their male counterparts, grossing over $306 million worldwide and earning multiple award nominations.

Widespread popular and critical acclaim.

The movie earned widespread critical acclaim, with reviewers praising its smart blend of comedy and heart. Critics noted it combined "big, brash laughs" with "smart insight into women's friendships," while NPR called it "a painfully funny indie comedy hiding in the guise of a blockbuster."

Common Sense Media wrote that the film was "ultimately a joy to watch," praising the chemistry between Wiig and Rudolph and calling it required viewing for bridal parties and book clubs. One reviewer described it as being "in equal parts, bawdy and authentic," while another from Rotten Tomatoes declared it was "as close to a perfect multiplex comedy as they come."

The film continues to resonate with audiences. In 2025, The New York Times ranked it number 32 on their list of "The 100 Best Movies of the 21st Century."

Dress up and win.

Part of the fun of this Ladies Night is the costume contest. Break out your wedding dress, bridesmaid gown, or most over-the-top formal attire for a chance to win a prize.

Whether you go elegant, dramatic, or delightfully chaotic (channeling the movie's spirit), the Indian Lake Theater team wants to see your best looks.
