Since the inception of Life In Bloom, Rachel and I had been dying to design a wedding at Cafe Brauer.

Nicole & Adam hosted a beautifully intimate wedding at The Dalcy this past Fall and they went all out with their wedding decor! Lighting was super important to the couple so we didn’t hold back in adding crystal chandeliers to every nook and cranny of The Dalcy. Enjoy a quick look back at their gorgeous […]

Alex and Lyndsay were blessed with a gorgeous day in July for their wedding at Theater on The Lake. They kicked things off with their ceremony along the lakefront path with the crystal blue water of Lake Michigan creating the perfect backdrop. Afterwards, guests enjoyed cocktails along the South end of Theater on The Lake […]

After a year in flux, the events industry has come storming back this year in a way that we haven’t seen in our lifetime and Life In Bloom Floral & Event Design experienced its busiest year to date. We had the opportunity to add some fabulous new members to our team, we added some really […]

When you think of a Life In Bloom wedding, you often think of a classic green and white floral palette. And while that is not always the case, it was certainly the case for Alexis and Jack’s wedding at Hinsdale Golf Club. Alexis wanted a super lush floral palette designed in a timeless gardenesque style […]

This summer wedding at Notre Dame Football Stadium was one of our first destination weddings that we designed since the start of the pandemic and it was every bit as epic as you would expect! With such a large guest count, the ballroom at Notre Dames Football Stadium was the perfect location for Katie & […]
