The perfect day!
We cannot thank Donna, Chef Dan, and the rest of the team at The Elkridge Furnace Inn enough for making our wedding perfect for us. The food was amazing, the service was wonderful, and the timeline truly went off without a hitch! Not to mention, the entire grounds and tent were stunning. We received so many compliments on how gorgeous the venue is and how delicious the food was. We feel so grateful that we chose EFI as our wedding venue and the entire journey to get us to the big day was seamless. From helping plan timelines, coordinating tastings, setting up decor, and helping day-of, EFI went above and beyond. We would highly recommend The Elkridge Furnace Inn to any couples looking for a gorgeous, garden/tent venue.We cannot thank Donna, Chef Dan, and the rest of the team at The Elkridge Furnace Inn enough for making our wedding perfect for us.

The Most Beautiful Venue
The Elkridge Furnace Inn owners and staff helped me and my husband have the most magical, amazing night ever for our wedding on 4/20. Everything was so perfect and we especially want to emphasize how amazing our day of coordinator, Naina, was. She made everything run so smoothly and hustled all night to ensure our night was amazing! I couldn't have asked for a better coordinator for our wedding day. I received so many compliments in regards to Naina from MULTIPLE guests at our wedding. The food and drinks were so delicious and the service was amazing! I would recommend this venue and Naina as their coordinator to anyone who is looking for a wedding venue.The Elkridge Furnace Inn owners and staff helped me and my husband have the most magical, amazing night ever for our wedding on 4/20.

Amazing Venue
We just had our dream wedding at Elkridge Furnace Inn. The venue is absolutely gorgeous with a beautiful outdoor ceremony space, and a dream like permanent tent reception area complete with fairy lights, fire pit, and old time bar. The service was also amazing! They were able to accomodate my husband's gluten allergy and still deliver delicious food that we wanted, including sushi, mini tacos, and a sunday bar. My guests were thrilled with their dinners and food/drinks throughout the night. Their wedding planner Alegna is amazing, and the woman who coordinated day of Tori was so on top of things that everything went off without a hitch. I could not recommend this place higher, and we can't wait to go back soon for date night.We just had our dream wedding at Elkridge Furnace Inn.

Every wedding and couple mean the world to us. It was wonderful to share all the planning and then have it all come together for you and Eric. This is what it's all about and we so appreciate your glowing review, Madeleine. Cheers to many years...and lots of date nights, too! -

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.My husband and I got married at EFI in November and are so happy we chose the Manor House as our venue.

We had a wonderful experience with Elkridge Furnace Inn from start to finish!
The venue was exactly what we were looking for between the outdoor ceremony spot overlooking the river, the beautiful old manor house, and the (air conditioned!) reception tent and patio. Our guests are still telling us how much they loved the venue. Having everything included (catering, tables, chairs, cake) in the venue price made planning very easy and the team was very accommodating to all of our requests. Would definitely recommend EFI, and am looking forward to visiting the restaurant on our anniversary!The venue was exactly what we were looking for between the outdoor ceremony spot overlooking the river, the beautiful old manor house, and the (air conditioned!) reception tent and patio.

The best day ever!
Donna was fantastic, she arranged everything and was able to make it look easy. She happily accommodated a few special requests and conditions and even made sure that we had a plan ion the weather turned. The food was outstanding (As always, we have been going to the furnace Inn for years). and everyone was served together. Donna and Chef Dan worked with us to choose a menu that would have something for everyone. The grounds were beautiful, the staff were wonderful and the service was perfect. It was so great to be able to relax and know that everything was arranged and under control. it really was the best day ever!Donna was fantastic, she arranged everything and was able to make it look easy.

Wedding Dream Come True
The Elkridge Furnace Inn was the venue for my daughter's wedding on October 16, 2021. We chose the Elkridge Furnace Inn for many reasons. First, the food is exquisite as we have dined in their restaurant on many occasions enjoying a visit from Chef Dan Wecker to our table to insure our meals were made to perfection. Second, the architecture of the Inn and the surrounding grounds bordering on the Patapsco River are beautifully appointed and offer a trip back into Maryland's historic pass. The grounds were a lovely backdrop for our wedding portraits. Third, the professional and highly trained staff, headed by Donna Wecker, handled all our needs and wishes throughout our event. The entire event, ceremony and reception took place at Elkridge Furnace Inn making it very convenient and welcoming to our guests. We could not have asked for a better venue to host our daughter's wedding. However, I feel it is very important to add that on the day of our daughter's wedding it rained.
The rain caused the ceremony to be held inside rather than overlooking the Patapsco River, the cocktail hour to be on the first and second floors of the Manor House rather than using the front lawn and porch, and the reception contained to the large tent which holds close to 200 people. Nonetheless, it was magical, a seamless change of plans, and the raindrops tapping on the tent added an angelic touch to the ceremony. The cocktail hour was wonderful with guests commenting on the beautiful setting. And the reception tent sparkled with mini lights, chandeliers, and a dance floor that encompassed the entire area. My daughter wanted great food and a great time for her guests. She said that everything was perfect and more than she expected. Rain can be a factor when choosing an outdoor venue, but Elkridge Furnace Inn's plan "B" handled everything perfectly. So look to The Elkridge Furnace Inn to make a "wedding dream come true" whether it rains or not. Thank you Elkridge Furnace Inn, we will always remember our special day. And we will continue to enjoy your restaurant and share our experience with brides-to-be.

Picturesque-intimate October wedding
The team at Elkridge Furnace Inn made our wedding an absolute dream! We went for a tour with event manager, Sarah Hardy, in March 2020. We fell in love with the charm and intimacy of the venue, almost instantly. Once we booked our date, 10/16/2021, from there we met with Chef Dan and Donna Wecker, the owners. They made the experience leading up to the big day very special and one we will never forget. My parents and in-laws were also able to join in on the experience as well, a chance to bring us all together. A few days leading up to our wedding day, we had decided that we would have an indoor ceremony due to the forecast for rain. Although, it was not what we had planned, the EFI team came together along with my florist and family members to create an exceptional ceremony space. My guests said that the twinkling lights paired with the rain falling softly on the tent created a beautiful ambience. Later that evening, after the rain had stopped, we were able to explore the grounds and take pictures. The trellis in the ceremony space and the bridge in the garden were some of my favorite spots for pictures! Austin (my husband) and I will forever be grateful for the dedication and flexibility of the Elkridge Furnace Inn, from the day we booked to our wedding day. I felt they captured the feeling of what I wanted my wedding to be like- intimate and personalized, it made for a truly amazing and memorable experience. It is so special knowing that we can visit our wedding venue, 20 minutes away, whenever we'd like for brunch or dinner. We are looking forward to celebrating our one year wedding anniversary at EFI in a few months :)The team at Elkridge Furnace Inn made our wedding an absolute dream!

Everything one could ask for under one ceiling!
When we were looking for a venue to celebrate our wedding in 2019, we were looking for a venue that had history, character, and built in ambiance. Elkridge Furnace Inn delivered everything above and beyond. They are a complete family owned and operated one stop shop as they serve as the ceremony and reception space, with full service as the caterer, bakery, and bar. With Covid, naturally, we had to postpone the event, and the venue did everything they could to ensure that we were taken care of every step of the way. The evening was flawless. Kristin, the venue coordinator, was friendly, professional, and SO quick to answer emails and questions! She was also incredibly flexible and went the extra mile to take care of us on our big day. Thank you so much for all your effort and help!When we were looking for a venue to celebrate our wedding in 2019, we were looking for a venue that had history, character, and built in ambiance.

The Furnace Inn is a great venue
My husband and I were so happy to have our most special day at The Elkridge Furnace Inn. We booked back in 2019 and as everyone knows Covid happened. They were very flexible with us having to change our 2020 date to 2021. Such a beautiful whimsical venue. We planned to have our wedding outside. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate. They made the inside reception area look beautiful for us for our ceremony. They truly helped my vision for my wedding day come true, despite not having the beautiful outdoor ceremony spot. The food and service was great. People are still talking about it months later. The Furnace Inn will always hold a special place in our heart. Thank you sooo much everyone!My husband and I were so happy to have our most special day at The Elkridge Furnace Inn. We booked back in 2019 and as everyone knows Covid happened.

Absolute perfection
I can’t even begin to tell people how spectacular it was to have our wedding at this establishment. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, was so unbelievably kind, helpful, organized, detailed, loving, and made the day so special. It’s so cliche to say, but it truly was a very special day. This was the only venue we looked at and for good reason. I can’t thank the entire staff and Sarah, Donna, and Dan, enough for all the love and attention they gave to our wedding day.I can’t even begin to tell people how spectacular it was to have our wedding at this establishment.

Wonderful venue
EFI is a beautiful venue that is robustly run while being customizable and personable. We love the all-inclusive nature of their packages which really makes the planning process so much easier. We were looking for something unique when it came to food and the head chef worked closely with us to pull it off. I have not seen a chef work to learn to cater an entirely new cuisine just for a client, but he did, and it was delicious. They helped us integrate our culture into the wedding which we really appreciated. We had hoped to have our wedding outdoors because of how beautiful their outdoor ceremony point was, but it was too cold for that on our wedding day. But, they made the indoor option with the tent look so elegant! The bridal suite is gorgeous and wonderful for pictures, especially during the day, and the house itself has a historic, aged beauty to it with an amazing bar space for cocktail hour. It's also an incredibly convenient location, being just 5 minutes away from BWI airport and an entire street of associated hotels, which makes it really easy for guests who are traveling from afar to get to the venue. Overall we loved EFI and would recommend it to all of our friends and family hoping to get married in the Baltimore area.EFI is a beautiful venue that is robustly run while being customizable and personable.

Picture Perfect
If we could do it all again, we would choose EFI without a second thought. After signing a contract with them a full 2 years prior to our reception, we had 3 different contact people for the venue. Ultimately each and every contact was extremely helpful. We ended up working with Julia and could not think of a more perfect person for our day. She was extremely responsive, attentive, and calmed all of our fears! Everything went off without a hitch. The food was amazing, drinks were perfect, and they had every detail completed beautifully.If we could do it all again, we would choose EFI without a second thought.

Amazing Experience!
We had an amazing experience with Elkridge Furnace Inn (EFI)! From our initial communications up to our wedding day, EFI was responsive, attentive, and professional. We had a bit of turnover with our wedding coordinator from our initial booking to our event, but EFI kept us apprised of the changes and made sure the transition was as smooth as possible. Sarah and Julia were fantastic to work with and we appreciated their attention to detail throughout the process. We had so much fun at our cake and food tastings with Chef Dan and enjoyed hearing how much our guests loved the food and ambience of the venue. Sarah also worked with us to have string lights in the tent and they helped make the space even more inviting and beautiful. The team was also great in making sure we stayed on schedule, helping us set up/tear down decorations, and ensuring our exit was as stress-free as possible. We really appreciate everything Chef Dan, Sarah, and the whole EFI team did to make our day so special and would highly recommend them to others!We had an amazing experience with Elkridge Furnace Inn (EFI)!

Stress free wedding planning
Elkridge was the perfect venue for us. Working with Bethany was such a pleasure. She made the planning process so straight forward and simple. She answered all my questions and provided suggestions when I wasn’t exactly sure what to do. On the day of our wedding, the staff at Elkridge took such great care of us. They did an amazing job with all the set up, perfectly placing every little detail exactly where we wanted. Having our bridal and grooms rooms fully stocked with snacks and drinks was so great for the hour leading up to the ceremony. The food was AMAZING. I cannot say enough good things about our experience. Worth every penny for a beautiful, memorable, stress free wedding day.Elkridge was the perfect venue for us.

Our favorite restaurant was also the best place for our wedding. Not the "cookie cutter food" you find at most wedding receptions. The Inn is tucked away and quiet, very romantic- Great place for the wedding photos.Our favorite restaurant was also the best place for our wedding.

We had our wedding reception at Elkridge Furnace Inn on June 9, 2018. Where do I even begin? We worked very closely with Bethany who did an amazing job. She is extremely organized and has so many great recommendations on everything that can be done with the venue. We used the house for the cocktail hour and the large white tent behind the house for the reception. Bethany and I emailed back and forth many times about ideas and things that we wanted to add to our reception and she kept track of everything! The food was UNBELIEVABLE. We told Dan, the owner and chef that we wanted to have a Pennyslvania inspired buffet station and a Maryland inspired station and he came up with an incredible menu that included mini crabcakes, Old Bay cheddar biscuits, filet tips, kielbasa, and cheesesteaks. When we had our food and cake tasting, we did not change one item on the menu he proposed because we loved it all and we had so many comments from our guests on how great the food was! Everything about the reception was amazing. The groomsroom and bridal suite were a great place to take a break before the reception began. We had a personal hostess, Vada, that catered just to my husband and I the entire evening and she was amazing! Thank you, Vada! The guests raved about the beauty of the historic house and grounds, the dinner service, and the entire atmosphere. When my husband and I first walked into the reception area, I was stunned at how beautiful the venue looked. It was so much more than I could have ever imagined! I cannot recommend enough Bethany, Dan, and the entire team at Elkridge Furnace Inn. The service was absolutely top-notch and worth every penny. They made our day seamless and allowed us to customize the venue to fit what we had envisioned for our reception. Thank you so much to everyone at Elkridge Furnace Inn!
