This past Spring, we had the privilege of designing and producing Emily and Ian’s Wedding at Exmoor Country Club in Highland Park.  This was just our second wedding at Exmoor Country Club and the tent, which gets set up just off of the club’s main dining room is the perfect setting for a Spring wedding!  […]

This past Spring, the Life In Bloom team, alongside Stephanie Cook of The Creative Planners, designed and produced this stunning Chicago History Museum wedding with chinoiserie vases and an abundance of hot pink orchids.  The end result was a stunning mix of old meets new, traditional meets contemporary!  The face of the bride as she […]

Nestled in the heart of River North, sits an ivy covered building, properly named, The Ivy Room. This is not the first wedding we have blogged at the location, as it is one of our favorite wedding spots. Last fall, Jess and Joel tied the knot at this venue and we could not have been […]

Gena and Sean celebrated their “big day” with a Morgan Manufacturing Wedding this past February. The couple wanted a winter-glam atmosphere, so picture this: guests enter the cocktail hour to find their names on suspended acrylic escort card boards. The names were printed on post-it notes, a personal touch since the couple has a history […]

A picturesque wedding day looks like this one: beginning in the gardens of the Armour House and ending inside the marble filled ballroom.

Bridgeport Art Center set the stage for an urban, Chicago wedding. The wooden interior and stunning city views are absolutely breath-taking! Kim’s bouquet was filled […]

Lauren and Justin were married on this very terrace with 100 of their closest family and friends. The spot overlooks an architectural garden and is just steps away from Lake Michigan, a stunning Chicago setting. Their style was absolutely […]

In the midst of a busy wedding season, we slowed down to create this beautiful Chicago Illuminating Company wedding. Since their wedding was filled with fine textures and the sweetest blooms, it’s one of our favorites. Our lovely bride, Sophie, grew up in France and wanted to incorporate touches of home throughout her Chicago Illuminating Company wedding. […]

2017 was an incredible year for the Life In Bloom team!  We designed and produced 51 weddings, 6 corporate events, 2 baby showers, and 1 bachelorette flower-crown workshop.  Contrast that to 43 weddings and 3 corporate events that we had in 2016 and you can see why this year was such a whirlwind!  None of […]
