A venue with all of the old-world elegance of Europe but located just outside of Philadelphia could only be Elkins Estate. Dripping with charm, the venue speaks for itself. But the design of Laura Gares and the exquisite florals only enhanced the striking architecture and gilded rooms of the estate.
On a perfect July day, it was a delight to be part of an editorial that captured the glamor of Elkins Estate. With an intimate reception table set in the piano room, Lamar and Stephanie’s celebration was classically elegant. The bride’s lace dress with long sleeves and a show-stopping bow was modern with a touch of ornate glamor.
Traditional white and blush florals were punctuated by baby pink macarons at each place setting. Delicate script swept across the invitations, and the gilded gold of the table settings elevated the decor to match the striking frescos on the ceiling. Lamar surprised us all when he sat down at the piano, and began to serenade Stephanie in a moment of complete romance.
Elkins Estate is without a doubt one of my favorite venues in our area. If you want to channel European vibes in our own backyard, definitely consider this incredible location.
