Bloome L.L.C. 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Serves Geneva, IL

Born of a lifetime of creative pursuits, Bloome's founder Pamela Klein has one goal: making beautiful. Your beautiful—for whatever you need. Bloome is a boutique floral and event design studio devoted to building relationships with our clients as we curate unique, memorable, floral creations and event decor tailored specifically to the visions and dreams you have for your special occasion, gift, holiday or daily life at home. Now it's your turn. Whether you're planning a private elopement or the grandest of affairs, we would consider it a privilege to come alongside you for your day!

I can’t say enough about our experience with Bloome! From the first meeting with Pam and Alley, we clicked instantly. They have a truly unique, creative process that felt personalized and collaborative from start to finish. Pam and Alley are so warm, welcoming, and dedicated to understanding your vision, and from the moment we started, I knew they’d be able to bring my dream wedding to life. I was initially nervous since we didn't have a very large budget for flowers...so I told the Bloome team from the very beginning that my biggest concern is our slightly smaller budget would show. Pam assured me that would not be the case, and they would be able to work within our budget while still delivering amazing results. And boy was she right!!! We were aiming for a moody, romantic vibe with deep, dark jewel tones and lush greenery, and Bloome delivered beyond what I could have imagined. Their pricing model is based on labor rather than product, which was such a refreshing approach and gave us the flexibility to focus on our vision without getting bogged down in the details of individual item costs. This flexibility allowed them to get really creative with the arrangements, and they even surprised us by adding pops of beautiful colors to our greenery centerpieces. Originally, we were only expecting greenery, but they thoughtfully and generously went above and beyond, squeezing in stunning flowers that took our decor to the next level. We also got SO MANY compliments on our candles throughout the entire venue. Given our jewel tone color palette, we strayed from the traditional white/ivory candles and used a deep eggplant purple. It really helped tie the florals together and give us extra pops of color to complement our lush greenery! I was also obsessed with my giant, GORGEOUS bridal bouquet and we were able to repurpose our ceremony florals to create a super dramatic and beautiful sweetheart table arrangement. Pam and Alley at Bloome truly knocked it out of the park, and their passion and artistry showed in every piece. If you’re looking for florists who genuinely listen, bring your vision to life, and make you feel supported every step of the way, Bloome is where you want to go!

Located in Elgin, IL, we are a boutique floral design studio focused on creating unique wedding arrangements tailored to your vision. We know that flowers play a significant role in your celebration, and we are committed to making sure they reflect your unique style and personality. Whenever possible, we source fresh, high-quality blooms from local gardens and farms to ensure the very best quality for your special day.

Goodlove Arts was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding florals. From the start, Sherri was a great listener, receptive to my vision, and very detail-oriented. After our first chat about my vision for our wedding florals, she sent me a concept board through her website to show me flowers, colors, and examples to bring the "vibe" I was going for, and to seek my feedback to see if she was on track after our conversation. This helped me feel so at ease - From the start, I knew I was in the hands of a true professional. As we approached our wedding day, Sherri was instrumental in ensuring every detail would be executed perfectly. The beautiful, lush live florals Sherri designed truly brought the entire wedding theme, colors, and reception venue to life. When I share my wedding pictures, the first comment people make is, "THAT BOUQUET!" Goodlove Arts was instrumental in making our special day everything we had dreamed of.

She was so helpful and responsive through the entire planning process and went above and beyond what was required of her as well as the rest of the BlackBerry Farm staff. The carousel and train ride were such a bargain and were a hit with our guests and made for great pictures! Our ceremony location by the pond was perfect and so serene. Two recommended vendors we used from BlackBerry Farm were, 11th Hour Bartending and Uncle Bub’s and both were amazing to work with as well. We look forward to visiting again on our one year anniversary and taking a train ride with our first child. Just book this venue, you won’t regret it regret it!!!

If you made it to this page, you can see through my work that I love telling the story of your day by capturing the emotions and moments you can't afford to miss. ​ I come from a large Italian family with many of us extended into the arts or passionate about cooking and singing. I picked up my first camera in high school and immediately I was hooked. Today, I have over a decade in the industry, multiple commendations, and have held the Wedding Wire Couples' Choice Award and The Knot Best of Weddings Award 7 years in a row and counting. ​

Xcitephoto&Films was an excellent choice for our wedding photography and videography. Their communication was clear, precise, and they provided fast answers by phone or email throughout the planning process. The quality of their work was very professional, and the photos and video were beautifully done! They had 3 photographers who each took the time to capture photos with every table of family and friends, ensuring we have wonderful memories from our special day. Andrew and his team were very nice, professional people who listened to our needs, gave us their best work, and fit well within our budget.

I love what I do. I have been singing since age 8 and DJing since 15. I found a way to combine the best parts of music for an amazing wedding experience! People are wowed at the elegance of live music during cocktails as a first impression. Then they are treated to their favorite songs on the dance floor with me as the dj! It’s a perfect balance!

If you are searching for a DJ, look no further. Karl made our reception flow so easily. Between his thorough questionnaire and past experience, he took our vision and made it into a reality! He engaged our guests and took it upon himself to make sure the dance floor was always full! I have been to weddings where the DJ does not adapt to the room, but Karl is the exact opposite! He made sure to sus out the music preferences and include all age groups. We loved having him and we are so glad we entrusted him with our special day!

Seven family members are active in the Chicago floral business, which now reaches beyond Chicago, too. For nationwide flower delivery, Phillip's was recently named one of the Top 50 florists in North America, the company's online flower shops have earned it honors, and Phillip's has also been named an Illinois Retailer of the Year. Phillip's Flowers may be best known locally for its colorful floral shops, busy delivery vehicles, and custom wedding flowers. Still, in an age of giant corporations and mega-mergers, it's nice to know that some small family businesses like Phillip's are blooming, too.

Phillip's Flowers is the absolute best! The flowers and decor were absolutely perfect! We worked with Laura Walsh and her team, and they were truly outstanding. At our first meeting, Laura guided us through every step of the process, took detailed notes, and asked questions to help us think through every detail. She even made arrangements based on our wedding colors. At our second meeting, she created more bouquets and centerpieces, which really allowed us to visualize what to expect on our wedding day. Laura was incredibly patient and understanding of last-minute changes. She is knowledgeable, flexible, and truly cares about her customers. We could not have asked for a better experience.

I (Karin) remember how I felt planning my wedding. Things I had never thought about before suddenly became the most important things to me. I researched like crazy and made inspiration pages in my wedding binder (before the days of Pinterest) so I had a clear idea of what I wanted. Above all I knew I wanted the most BEAUTIFUL photos that represented us. And even though we did all this work to find a great photographer, we were so disappointed with our photos. Now, I realized what mistakes I made and what I wish somebody would have shared with me when I was choosing a photographer.

We had a wonderful experience working with Jeff from Ev Photography Chicago for our wedding photography. Jeff was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the planning process, answering all of our questions and making helpful suggestions. On the wedding day, Jeff's calm demeanor and ability to adapt on the fly when our trolley broke down really stood out. He helped us manage the situation and made sure we stayed on track to capture all the special moments we envisioned. Jeff has a very personal, elegant, and creative photography style that resulted in gorgeous and meaningful images from our special day. It's clear he cares deeply about capturing the essence of his couples. The photographs Jeff delivered far surpassed our expectations. We're so grateful to have these stunning visual memories of our wedding, and highly recommend Ev Photography Chicago!

As much as we are tech/gear heads with regards to equipment, we also know that the greatest piece of equipment any photographer can have is his/her brain. We pride ourselves on using our brains and our gear to not just take pictures, but to tell stories. While pictures, as Dorothea Lange says, “take an instant out of time; altering life by holding it still”, it’s also important that each instant of time is part of a person or event’s story.

Ken was the absolute perfect addition to our special day! Obviously you cherish your wedding photos forever and we could not be happier with them!

Venue considerations

  • Does not allow pets
  • Large venue, not ideal for small guest lists
  • No on-premises lodging options
Overall things were good. There were however a few disappointments that we encountered. First, there wasn't any power at the outdoor wedding venue; they had to run extension cords. Second was that people were allowed into the venue but the bar was not open and appetizers were not ready. Third, the room was very warm from the afternoon sun because the thermostat was in the hallway with a fireplace and the doors were closed. That was corrected by opening the doors but only after a long period of time. Fourth, there not enough appetizers. We as the wedding couple only got 1 of each selection (6 total) between the 2 of us and that was because they brought them to us in the bridal suite. We were told that people were taking them off the server's trays as the servers came out of the kitchen, but it seemed there wasn't enough food or staff because we were told by some guests that they didn't have any appetizers at all. Also, we were told that a guest asked a server for a glass of water, the server told the guest, "It's on the bar". Lastly, we ordered a Caesar Salad but we received an "Essence Salad". The menu's on the guests' plates stated "Essence Salad" but White Pines insisted it was a Caesar Salad...I've never had Caesar Salad with red onion. Aside from what I previously mentioned, the entrees were delicious and we did have a lot of fun. Bernadette was easy to work with and offered a lot of useful suggestions.

We believe there’s nothing in this world more powerful than a good story! Yes, we borrowed that from Game of Thrones (thanks, Tyrion). But hey, it perfectly sums us up—minus the dragons and drama. We craft unforgettable wedding films that turn your love story into pure cinematic magic!

We were so lucky to work with Kurt, Stephen and Riane from KL Media for photo and video on our day! We were so pleased with the teams professionalism, punctuality and friendliness, fully adhering to our shot list while allowing us to be ourselves. We were so excited to receive our teaser video and photos so quickly after the wedding and our full video and assets just a month later! They sent us an amazing keepsake box to store our personalized USB and we're so looking forward to the photo book they're developing for us. An amazing value for quality photo and video assets and an incredible photo/video team.

I literally could write for an hour or two and still not be able to tell you everything that was so wonderful about working with WSE. They were well organized, available, kind, and definitely make you feel like family. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, and photographs very well. We took advantage of the recent upgrades to Alpha and it was a fantastic space; big enough to comfortably accommodate our 150-ish guests, décor, dance floor, buffets, memory table, etc, but still felt intimate. They coordinated well with our outside vendors and I appreciated that we weren’t limited in our vendor selection. They made a lot of things just work without stressing us out at all. The setup for my caterers/servers was excellent and accommodating. The Romeo suite was so much fun for the groomsfolk, but the Juliet suite was an AMAZING amenity. The salon chairs and backlit mirrors were so convenient for my HMUA. The suite was comfortable and roomy despite the zillion people I had coming in and out. The full kitchen (particularly the full size fridge/freezer) was super nice to have. We had our ceremony on the west lawn, which was absolutely beautiful. They also were very enthusiastic and accommodating about letting us get some photos with our dogs and incorporating them into the ceremony. One of the most notable things, though, was how well they handled adapting to my and my guests’ mobility needs. Several of my older family members use walkers and were worried about the walking or the grass and they all felt very accommodated and cared for and were able to enjoy the day. I myself have a disability that affects my ability to walk and stand for very long; this was no problem for them. They shortened the aisle for my ceremony, knew exactly how to create a beautiful ceremony where both we and our wedding party were seated, and they put a lot of mileage on those golf carts getting me and my family where we needed to be safely and comfortably. I cannot recommend White Stone strongly enough and I would have every event there if I could.

Our approach to wedding filmmaking is simple- deliver the most sincere, organic recollection of the day by acting as unnoticeably as possible. By eliminating the pressures of being filmed, our couples are able to enjoy each moment of their day and be truly present in the experience, providing us with an authentic and emotional collection of frames. Weddings are our passion and we enjoy being able to assist with planning, coordinating and timeline creation throughout the months leading up to your big day. We’re with you every step of the way and are dedicated to creating the best possible version of your love story.

Rhys was great to work with!! He provided so much guidance leading up to the wedding day, going over my timeline and making recommendations based on how long he's seen things take. He also provides a list of suggested do's and dont's that you wouldn't realize have an impact on the video - it was so helpful!! Before the wedding he also has a prep call to go over all the details and any notes/requests we have for the videos (vibe we're looking for, any cinematic requests, song requests, etc.) He was another great presence to have the day of! We haven't gotten the video back yet but right after our wedding we got an email that lists out all the steps they take throughout video production. We've since gotten emails every time our video has moved to the next step. The communication from Rhys since we booked has been so incredible!

I couldn't have asked for better beauty professionals and would recommend XV Glam to any bride looking for exceptional services and gorgeous, timeless makeup application.
