“We had our wedding at The Elkridge Furnace Inn and were thrilled with our experience. The venue itself is gorgeous with beautiful natural surroundings that provided a classic, elegant backdrop for our special day. The staff were always very responsive and clear in their communication during the planning process, which made things smooth and stress-free. On the actual wedding day, their coordination was fantastic - they took care of all the little details and vendor logistics allowing us to relax and focus on enjoying ourselves. The space is also quite flexible; we were able to have both our ceremony and reception on-site. Overall, Elkridge Furnace Inn provided excellent value with their scenic venue and experienced team. We'd highly recommend them for any couple looking for a timeless and effortless wedding experience.”
