Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Built in the late 1880s for business tycoon and noted art collector William L. Elkins, this 42-acre estate just north of Philadelphia is a testament to Gilded Age glamour, with two manor homes, multiple charming outbuildings, and sprawling, park-like grounds and gardens.
- Elstowe Manor is the estate’s Italian High Renaissance mansion, and its breathtaking ballroom is the ideal spot for a timelessly elegant wedding, with your ceremony taking place in the ballroom itself, or outside on the impressive front staircase. Sixty-nine luxe guest rooms are available on the estate for overnight guests, allowing you to easily craft a weekend-long affair.
- The caring, engaged team at By Landmark are your partners in planning. A family-owned hospitality and venue-management company that values their role as “memorymakers” above all else, their decades of hosting experience will ensure your celebration shines.
