That’s why it was such a joy to create a wonderful gathering space in this gorgeous historic location. So we hope you enjoy creating your one of a kind event in this one of a kind venue!

  • Designed for grand celebrations

Bloomrose Hall was just what we were looking for for our wedding. The old church building is so cool and looked beautiful in our photos! I’m so happy that this venue was affordable and also allowed us to choose whichever vendors that we wanted. So many other places we looked at required you to use certain services or companies, but we didn’t like being forced to use certain caterers or decorators. We had a tight budget for our wedding and wanted to DIY a few aspects, like flowers and decor. We were so happy that they were so nice and easy to work with at Bloomrose Hall and gave us the freedom to create the wedding that we envisioned.
