I cannot say enough about Karen and Awilda at Bloomingdale. In my career, I plan events for affluent clients so I had a very high expectation of what the experience should be. From the first meeting, I knew Karen and Awilda were the people for the job. They were always quick to reply and I knew at all times they had everything covered without me having to double check. Our guests could not stop complimenting the food and service at Bloomingdale. They absolutely loved and took advantage of the veranda all night. If I had to do it over again I would 100% every time go back to Bloomingdale. We had our ceremony there as well and it was very accessible for my mil. There was an elevator down to the ground floor and they even drove her to her seat in a cart. The bar was set high and the staff at Bloomingdale cleared it by leaps and bounds. Reviewed on 30-09-2023

Melissa was so organized and made the whole process so smooth! They set up our decorations for us and packed it up for us that night for us to just pick up in the morning! Can’t even begin to express how grateful we are to come across Bloomingdale Golf Club!

The Blooomingdale Golf Club was everything and more for our wedding, if you are looking for a space that gives both outdoors and indoor options this is the place for you! From the beautiful venue to the people that work there that allowed our dreams to come true it was all amazing. We live out of state so choosing a venue from afar can be really hard, they were super accommodating and were able to squeeze us in when we were in town for meetings and seeing the space. We worked closely with Melissa as we prepped for the wedding and we can't give enough thanks to her (she was amazing!). The food was also amazing as they have their own catering right in house and it made planning that much easier. If we could we would relive that day again! Reviewed on 10-08-2023

My husband and I had an AMAZING experience with Bloomingdale Golf Club! We worked with Karen and Awilda and they made everything a breeze for us. Karen has been hosting weddings at Bloomingdale for many years and she had great advice for us. Awilda was a gem, answering any email I had within minutes. I would send an email so I wouldn't forget, not expecting her to answer right away, but she would come back almost immediately with a response. All night long and even after, guests told us how incredible the food was. We had filet mignon as one of the options and we had so many people tell us it was the best steak they had ever had at a wedding! To us, food was very important and we wanted our guests to enjoy their meal. They definitely did! If food is important to you as a couple, make sure to consider Bloomingdale Golf Club. We would also like to compliment how professional and on top of things the staff were. No matter what our guests threw their way, they were ready and willing to help and we could not be more grateful. If you are looking for a beautiful venue with lots of light, a beautiful balcony for your guests, amazing food, and all at a very reasonable price, make sure you check out Bloomingdale Golf Club. Best of luck! Reviewed on 11-07-2023

Allison Baker(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-07-2022 I cannot recommend this venue enough! I even attended a bridal shower here a few months before my wedding and even that event was outstanding! We had about 10 months to plan so I jumped on the venues right away. I started reaching out everywhere since so many places were booked for our date already. Karen’s response to my Knot email was prompt and we were able to meet her that week. After meeting Karen in person it was an easy decision to choose Bloomingdale for our wedding. She did so much research to make the venue so appealing and they delivered. She was willing to help us in any way possible to make our day special for us. Melissa also made everything flawless as well. I loved working with both of them the entire process. The food here is delicious, the grounds are beautiful, the outdoor veranda was perfect, and the staff was amazing. Of course there were some hiccups during the day, which happen. So I’d recommend getting yourself a day of wedding coordinator to help navigate life so you don’t have to as the bride or groom (or the DJ! Who was amazing for jumping in for us when he saw we were stressed!)…but none of that was Bloomingdale’s fault. They were super supportive during the whole process. Aside from that I truly have to say, if you decide on this venue, you won’t be disappointed. All of our guests loved the experience! All the reviews we read before booking were honest and I’m so glad we chose Bloomingdale for our wedding. Other venues didn’t have the personal feel that Karen had during our initial visit. The team here truly made this an experience we will never forget. Can’t wait to go back and enjoy as a guest in the future! Reviewed on 09-12-2022

The venue was beautiful, the menu was delicious, and the entire process was completely stress-free. Karen's commitment to quality shines through at every stage, and we knew we would be working with her after our very first meeting. It had snowed 8 inches the night before, and her husband plowed the entire parking lot an hour early just for our meeting. They customized the entire experience based on our unique needs and outside vendors, and worked with us to create a few new menu items that their kitchen absolutely nailed! Even weeks afterward, our friends still talk about how great the food was - try the asiago chicken and pasta!Overall, I would recommend the BGC to anyone looking to have a fantastic wedding at any price point. We had gotten priced out of another venue, but Karen was more than willing to work with our budget and ended up giving us an absolutely flawless reception. Reviewed on 07-11-2022

Brendan A(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 01-10-2021 Hello All,I wanted to share a little about our recent wedding at Bloomingdale Golf Club since our experience with the BGC team was excellent! What stood out to us and one of the main reasons we selected BGC as our wedding venue was our experience with Karen H. Karen was so dedicated to our happiness, and generous with her time we cannot thank her enough for all of her help. Karen was so kind to meet or have phone calls with us during evenings to review colors and answer any questions we had, and we never felt rushed, in fact she always made sure to listen to our thoughts, answer all of our questions and it was evident that she was personally invested in brining our vision to life . We worked with Karen for over 18 months since we postponed one year due to covid, and she was always very responsive, easy to work with, cheerful, and focused on our happiness. From the very first meeting with Karen we had a good feeling about HER. She has a great positive energy and both my wife and I felt like she genuinely cared about us, making our wedding day special, and she delivered the entire way! She is genuinely kind and truly wanted to make our day special. Thank you Karen, for everything!! It was a true pleasure working with you!The venue space is roomy and flexible and over 180 degrees of the main reception room has huge windows to showcase panoramic views of the beautiful golf course. We had a Fall wedding and it was near perfect weather. Many great photo locations. The first time we visited BGC was back in Jan/Feb 2019 when we were interviewing venues for our reception. Karen was showing us around and we entered the main reception hall and it was snowing. Again, this room has 180 degree views, essentially a 200 foot long wall of glass overlooking the golf course. It was dark outside but I could see clearly the biggest snowflakes falling steadily through the two story tall panoramic windows in the center of the main room. As we stood together and watched the falling snow, the scene was immersive and beautiful because of all the windows, it is hard to describe the feeling but it felt truly special and I was grateful. In that moment, I knew we had found our venue.I would highly recommend BGC to host your special day. The team was so accommodating with vendors and decorations, and everyone was so kind and happy to help. Go see the venue and talk with Karen or Lisa, you will be glad you did.Cheers, and best wishes!

Jacqueline Butzen(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-10-2020 We had a wonderful wedding thanks to Bloomingdale Golf Club (BGC). All of our wedding planning happened pre-pandemic, and every step of the way BGC was amazing to work with, But I really want to talk about how wonderful they were to us during the pandemic. Our original wedding date was in March 2020, and less than a week before our day, we had to cancel due to COVID restrictions. As I was freaking out about what to do and how to handle this, one of my biggest worries was how our venue would work with us. I still remember my phone call with Karen and how she was and assured me that one way or another we would figure this out. We decided to book a new date later in the year thinking everything would be back to normal by then. Well, as we all know, things did not go back to normal and we had to cancel again. My husband and I decided to get married with just our parents and grandparents in attendance. Since we could not have a big reception, I was hoping to celebrate with a private dinner somewhere but given the times, that was hard to navigate. I never thought BGC would let us go from a 200+ reception to a 12 person reception, but I contacted them to see what they thought. They were more than willing to accommodate this and worked with us to make our day as special as possible. Although not what we had initially planned, we had an amazing wedding reception at BGC and the perfect wedding day. As we went through all the postponing, rescheduling, canceling, etc. so many people asked me, \"what about the venue, how have they been\" and my response was always, \"they have been amazing.\" With so much going on it was such a relief to have a venue that was so understanding and kind to work with. The space is beautiful and the team really goes above and beyond to make sure your day is perfect. I don't think we ever heard the word no from them, they were always willing to accommodate everything we asked. When we first booked, we had already met with other venues and none of them made us feel the way Karen and the BGC staff did, from day one they treated us like their friends and seemed as excited as we were for our wedding. I am grateful to have had them as our venue, I truly do not think we would have had the wedding we did without their commitment to making our day as special as possible. Reviewed on 19-10-2021

We only had a few initial request and other venues wanted to charge us “convenience fees.” Besides the fact that other places wanted to charge us for every request, it also made us feel as though we were just a number in an excel spread sheet. The large outdoor patio setting was a tremendous plus for our cocktail hour. After the contract was signed, Karen continued to help us along the way.

From the first day we met her, she handled the details, answered all our questions, explained the different options, and we went into our wedding day feeling very close to her. The Bloomingdale Golf Club is a great wedding venue to have--the room is very large with huge ceiling and great windows to show off the wonderful scenery. Even though it was pretty chilly on my wedding day, people still enjoyed sitting outside on the veranda with the wonderful string lights outside and watch the storm come over. The food was great--I recommend the Prime Rib and Tortellini options! It really felt like Bloomingdale Golf Club made our wedding very personal to us--even though we picked a lot of more standard options, we were able to jazz it up to our style by having a signature drink and having our own flair on the guest book, seating cards, and a few little decorations. Take advantage of the Friday discount if you can! The ONLY flaw was that the cake was not cut as early as I thought it was going to, and I wanted the dancing to get started, especially as my photographer was not staying late--so we decided to jump into our first dance before the cake was served. Overall, we are SO thrilled with our big day. Still waiting to see our pics--can't wait as the scenery was simply beautiful. Reviewed on 30-10-2018

Jill Sniezek(bride)2 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 19-09-2019 Initial meeting went really well, but when we sat down to meet 3 months before my big day LOTS of things changed from what I was initially told. Was told by Karen from the beginning that the whole day was mine and she knew from Day 1 that I was planning on having my ceremony there as well as my reception, only to find out that 3 months before my big day that there was a golf outing scheduled on my wedding day ( I signed my contract 1.5 years prior to this) and that \"I could have my ceremony there, but it would be inconvenience to the golfers twice... once for the ceremony and then again for pictures.\" Was so upset I almost changed my ENTIRE venue, to not have to deal with being told one thing and then the next time something different. Karen was hard to get a hold of, even made an appointment to make my final payment and she didn't up. Had to pay her husband Jeff, who was extremely delightful. Lisa was very thoughtful when it came to the execution. If I would have known what craziness I would have been dealing with, with Karen, I would NOT have gone with Bloomingdale Golf Club. Overall, the night did run smoothly, but after my 3 months to the day meeting, I made my husband deal with Karen because I was to the point of tears if something else changed because I felt like all she wanted to do was change and dictate things.

Denise Laurin-Donatelle(wedding party)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 13-01-2019 This venue has a beautiful room with a huge arched window looking out onto beautiful landscaping and pond. There are plenty of evergreens during the Fall/Winter seasons, so it always looks beautiful. The staff is very accommodating. Our requests were met, or alternative solutions suggested. Here there is a warm, family feel, as it is family run. The personal touch was evident from the moment we walked in the door and we booked the hall that same day. There aren't very many places like this, especially if you want an affordable venue that doesn't allow more than one wedding per date. Much of the personal feeling emanates from Karen Helmig who coordinates events for BGC. We highly recommend. Reviewed on 13-11-2017

The room has vaulted ceilings and a cozy feeling among our guests. Karen was so helpful throughout our entire process. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. Reviewed on 20-03-2016
Elizabeth Snezek(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-11-2015 I don't know where to start. Everything was wonderful! When we walked into the space we knew it was where we needed to celebrate. Karen and her team went above and beyond. She responded quickly to my email questions and even catered to us when we just popped in to see the venue. The reception was perfect. I was able to enjoy my family and friends and not worry about the food, sweet table, or ANY detail. Plus, the food was fabulous. We have been married several months and our guests still bring up and compliment the space and food. I could ask for anything more. Highly recommend Bloomingdale Golf Club!, Reviewed on 02-03-2016

Anonymous (bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-09-2015 Our wedding was absolutely beautiful, unique, and elegant at Bloomingdale Golf Course! We had both our ceremony and reception there. Our ceremony was outdoors and intimate, yet able to hold all of friends and family. Karen was extremely helpful and timely in answering all my emails and requests, wanting to ensure all things went as planned. She went above and beyond in things that we asked. The food was out of this world. The presentation of it alone was truly remarkable. It's been a few months since are wedding and we are still getting compliments on the food! The late night hot dog cart was also so fun and also still has our guests talking! I would highly recommend having a wedding at Bloomingdale Golf Course! Reviewed on 19-11-2015
mandy McKinney(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 02-10-2015 Our wedding was more than I could have ever hoped for! When you go through a year of planning every detail, you hope and pray that everything will turn out the way you dreamed. When I walked into our venue on our wedding day, I was blown away. Every detail I had picked out over so much time was beautifully laid out in front of me. Karen took the time to make sure everything was perfect. Not only did everything look gorgeous but the staff was extremely professional and the food was absolutely delicious! I mean wedding food is not known to be great, but this was amazing! Prime Rib all the way! From the first day I met Karen, I knew we would be well taken care of. It was wonderful to work with someone who genuinely loves what they do, and it shows.

Kristina Paprocki(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-10-2015 Our wedding at Bloomingdale Golf Club was better then I expected. Both Karen and Jeff were wonderful to work with and we're so helpful every step of the way. I was living out of state the majority of the time before my wedding and Karen did everything she could to make the planning process so simple and stress free. She worked around my schedule and allowed me to do everything when I was in town. The ceremony and reception were perfect without any problems, or at least I didn't know of any. The food was a huge hit!! It was the best wedding, and everything I wanted!! Highly recommend Bloomingdale Golf Club! Reviewed on 19-11-2015
Stevie Schott(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 19-09-2015 Bloomingdale Golf Club went above and beyond for our wedding on 9/19/15. My husband and I can't say enough positive things about Karen, Jeff, and their entire staff! Everything turned out better than we imagined at their beautiful venue- in fact I cried when I walked into the ball room and saw how perfectly everything was set up. \rKaren was wonderful to work with - always prompt returning emails and always smiling, laughing, and exuding so much confidence and optimism. She had great referrals and recommendations for us (Blooming Flowers was outstanding) and we received so many compliments on our cake! (Central Continental Bakery).\rThe food was delicious and the staff went above and beyond! Bob was so patient with our bridal party while we drove through the course for pictures, and Ray even offered to help carry my train and bustle my dress as I walked back to cocktail hour! Leslie was so helpful arranging tee times for my husband and groomsmen before the wedding, and Don was gracious (and patient) when my husband and I showed up the morning after the wedding to pick up the rest of our favors and centerpieces.\rEverything was perfect the day of and we can't thank Karen and Jeff enough. Booking Bloomingdale Golf Club for our wedding was the best decision we made when planning our wedding. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Reviewed on 30-10-2015
Monica Newman(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-07-2015 We had our wedding here in July and were so impressed with everything! We got the prime rib, chicken piccata and eggplant parmesan as food options and we are still hearing from our guests how good the food was! Karen was awesome to work with and made me feel like I was in very good hands throughout the whole planning process. The actual room is beautiful with high ceilings and surrounded by windows on three sides looking out to the golf course. We could not be happier with the staff and entire experience of Bloomingdale!

Cailey Momsen(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 29-08-2015 Karen was amazing to work with from the very start, all the way through the day after our reception. She helped us plan every aspect of the night and was very available whenever we had questions come up. She helped us make sure our day was unique and exactly how we envisioned it. We had so many guests comment on how good the food was! The service was exceptional all night and many of our guests loved our bar tender! Karen stayed the whole night and continuously check in on us to make sure everything was running smoothly. The venue itself is very beautiful with wrap around windows and view of the golf course. I highly recommend the Bloomingdale Golf Club! Reviewed on 09-10-2015
