Your love-filled milestone
Enough reasons to pop the champagne?! Yeah, we think so, too.
Bloom’s stunning yet functional blank canvas
One exceptional celebration
Imagine us handing you the chicest, most divinely-tailored Little Black Dress and saying “Here, now make it yours.”
That’s what you’ll experience inside Bloom’s sophisticated walls, bursting with chic and subtle aesthetic surprises everywhere you look.
It’s nearly impossible to not see your unique vision come to life. (And yes, that’s exactly how we intended it!)
She was meticulously designed with you, your guests, AND your team of vendors in mind, ensuring every detail is perfect.
Glide through our emerald green French doors into a realm of glamor, where the grand entrance adorned with local art pieces offers a storied greeting with a touch of Chicago flair.

About Your Hosts...
Meet Christine and Brent Edelcup —
–the heartbeat of Bloom Events. With 10+ years of turning dreams into reality as an award-winning wedding planner and special event designer, Christine knows exactly what it takes to make every event unforgettable.
The spark for Bloom ignited during countless chats with couples and clients and hearing their desires for a venue that has a sleek and aesthetic blank-canvas floor plan that’s bathed in natural light, has impeccable modern design details and customizable bar tops inviting in the most meaningful of toasts…
It may seem like an unattainable checklist, but does it really have to be? That’s when Brent, Christine’s partner in life and business (and now PARENTHOOD!) posed the question, “Well, if we think we could do better, why don’t we?”
And thus the idea of Bloom was born, and eventually built, into the exquisite celebration space it is now.
Filled with style and grace. Flexibility with perspective.
You are entering a space that was created by two people who fell in love. You can roll your eyes at this mushy statement or you can see these four walls like we do.
Brent, AKA Bloom's President , complements Christine's creativity with his strategic insights and organizational prowess. Drawing from his background in owning and operating a concierge pharmacy (the one he sold in order to fuel this dream!) he ensures that Bloom Events operates seamlessly behind the scenes.
Together, Christine and Brent have channeled their collective expertise and passion into designing Bloom Events—a space that embodies sophistication, elegance, functionality, and unparalleled charm.
YOU’LL FIND THAT HERE AT BLOOM, WE HAVE THAT JE-NE-SAI-QUAI FOR MAKING EVERY COUPLE OR CLIENT FEEL LIKE THEY'RE THE ONLY ONES IN THE WORLD, WITH AN EVENT SPACE THAT'S NOT JUST ‘FINE’ BUT DOWNRIGHT EXCEPTIONAL.
