    An Absolute Must Venue

    From the moment my now-husband and I stepped onto the grounds at Elizabeth Furnace, we knew it was where we wanted to get married. The property is absolutely breathtaking. The grounds are impeccably maintained, the tiered garden is stunning, and the entire venue is filled with so much charm, character, and history. It truly felt magical from the very first visit. After our tour, Jackie and the JDK Group made the entire planning process seamless and enjoyable. Jackie welcomed us with open arms, was always available to answer our questions, and embraced every idea we had with enthusiasm. She was incredibly creative and helped bring our vision to life, including coordinating rentals for a tent, dance floor, and stage on the front lawn. Every detail was thoughtfully planned and executed, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience without feeling overwhelmed. On our wedding day, everything was even more beautiful than we had imagined. The venue looked absolutely stunning, and the grounds and catering staff were attentive, professional, and genuinely cared about making our day perfect. We received countless compliments throughout the evening—not only about how gorgeous the venue was, but also about how exceptional the staff and service were. Elizabeth Furnace and the JDK Group team gave us the wedding day we had always dreamed of. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine care made the entire experience unforgettable. We are beyond grateful and cannot recommend this venue highly enough to any couple looking for a beautiful, historic setting and an amazing team to bring their vision to life. Thank you for making our dream wedding a reality!

    Dream Venue

    Elizabeth Furnace was everything we could have ever dreamed of for our wedding venue and more. From the very first visit, we knew it was the perfect place for us, and on the wedding day, it truly exceeded every expectation. The property is absolutely stunning and created the most beautiful backdrop for our entire day. Every space felt intentional, warm, and effortlessly elegant, and our guests could not stop talking about how incredible the setting was. What made the experience even more seamless was working with Abby. She was so organized, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in making sure every detail came together perfectly. She helped guide us through the planning process with ease and always made us feel supported and taken care of. On the wedding day, everything ran flawlessly, allowing us to be fully present and soak in every moment. We are so grateful to Abby and the Elizabeth Furnace team for helping bring our vision to life and giving us the most unforgettable day. We truly cannot recommend this venue enough.

    Perfect and dreamy

    Elizabeth Furnace is a beautiful venue. I knew I wanted to get married there before we toured and before we were even planning the wedding. I'm just so in love with it. The getting ready suite for the bride is huge and the lighting was and also comfortable for hanging out in. I cannot find the words to express how much I loved this venue.

    Cozy Winter Wedding

    Elizabeth Furnace is absolutely gorgeous and the perfect spot for our December wedding. Although it may have been below freezing outside, the Charcoal Barn and Stables were warm, cozy, and rustic. Elizabeth Furnace and the JDK Group were so easy to work with throughout the entire process, which made the wedding day stress-free. They made our vision come to life and we could not be happier!

    Winter Wedding Bliss

    When we first visited Elizabeth Furnace, it was rainy, foggy day in March, but we immediately saw the beauty. How well maintain the grounds were and how perfect our wedding could be. Fast forward a year and half to December 2025 we couldn't have been happier with our decision to get married at Elizabeth Furnace. This venue was everything we hoped for and more—warm, romantic, and incredibly cozy. It was the perfect setting for a winter wedding, with an inviting atmosphere that made our day feel intimate and magical. The food from JDK was absolutely to die for and is still something our guests are raving about. The staff was truly top notch—attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in making sure every detail was perfect. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, and we received countless compliments on both the venue and the overall experience. We couldn’t imagine a better place to celebrate such a special day!
