Planning our wedding, out loud
I’m planning my own wedding, so I’m sharing the venues and vendors my fiancé and I looked at, with honest notes on each one. The good, the lovely, and what didn’t feel right for us.
New finds get added as we go, so check back.

Elkins Estate
Elkins Park, PA
An entire Gilded Age estate: ballroom, library, grounds, getting-ready spaces and the option to stay onsite. Definitely one of the most unique venues we've toured.
