I love a wedding with personality! Elkins Estate, located in Elkins Park, PA, is the perfect combination of personality and elegance wrapped up in one big, beautiful wedding venue. Built in 1898 by William L. Elkins, and designed by a French architect, the mansion is full of architectural details paired with modern touches. Dreaming of an Elkins Estate Wedding?
