Turf Valley and all its staff was so helpful, easy to work with, and professional throughout the planning process and the day of the wedding. They made sure to answer all my questions and the Matre D made sure that my wife and I ate on the day because you are so busy! The venue was absolutely beautiful and made for great photos. The rooms were nice and spacious to get ready in and very clean and comfortable. The food was amazing! And everyone still raves about it. I would definitely chose this venue over and over again.

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.
