The Elkridge Furnace Inn is a wedding venue in Elkridge, Maryland. In addition to small weddings, we also host rehearsal dinners and other celebrations in this space. There is a unique space for every aspect of your big day. It is no wonder than that for over 25 years couples have made memories here to last a lifetime.

Facilities and Capacity

The Furnace Complex is over twelve acres on state park property, situated on the banks of the Patapsco River; just south of the Baltimore Harbor with easy access to major routes and a convenient distance from BWI. Our Manor House dates back to 1810 and boasts comfortable elegance with large Federal-era windows and porches emphasizing the historic nature of the property and showcasing picturesque scenes.

Our Celebration Lounge and Suite are the perfect place to change, relax, and share a toast during your complementary early arrival. The Ceremony Point is surrounded by nature, and a large pergola provides a dramatic entry for the bridal party procession. We can also arrange for indoor spaces in case of unpredictable weather. Cocktail hour can take place inside the Manor House which features interior elements such as original flooring, black marble mantels, and double-leaf doors.

The main bar is in our Historic Kitchen, and guests are free to make use of our grand but cozy front porch and beautiful yard. If you are planning a more intimate wedding, opt for the Garden House venue. Perfect for guests of 70 or less, this space is situated in the middle of our organic gardens and greenhouse.

We can host up to 230 guests at our Manor House, and up to 75 guests in our Garden House venue. These permanent tented spaces come with comfortable flooring, chandeliers, and are climate controlled and handicap accessible.

We Love EFI!!!

My husband and I got married at EFI in November and are so happy we chose the Manor House as our venue. The indoor/outdoor venue was perfect for both our ceremony and reception and had so many amazing spots for photos! Naina was incredible to work with and kept me calm throughout the planning process no matter what came up. She felt more like a close friend helping us plan our wedding. We loved having her with us the day of as well to keep things running smoothly. Their planning documents, floorplan software and pre-scheduled meetings/menu tastings made planning super easy and kept everyone on the same page. I especially loved that most things are taken care of in house and the pricing is all up front so we didn't have any surprises at the end which made budgeting super easy as well. It was an incredible value for what we got! For any external vendors (florist, photographer, dj, etc.) they gave us a list of recommended vendors to work with and we ended up going with most of their list and loved them all. I was even able to set up a time to visit to check out another wedding the florist I was considering did there so I could see their work before signing a contract which was amazing! The venue staff took such good care of us the day of and made us feel so special. We did not lift a finger the day of and as soon as we dropped off our decor before our rehearsal, we were both so relaxed and could enjoy the night before because we knew everything was in good hands. The getting ready spaces for both myself and the groom were amazing too. We visited many other venues that shoved the groom and groomsmen into bathrooms or small conference rooms, so having a cool space with a balcony for the guys to get ready in was really special. We can't say enough good things about Elkridge Furnace Inn and are very grateful that we were able to celebrate our wedding there. We are still hearing amazing things from friends and family about how much they loved the historic home, the food and the ceremony point.
