We visited this free, dog-friendly arboretum on a hot summer day and had the trails to ourselves. On the Great Pond trail, we were greeted by swallowtail butterfly varieties feasting on wildflowers. The bridge leads to a rare chestnut grove and a planting of different pine trees. The springhouse and barn ruins are worth a stop. There are only portapotties and few picnic tables. Welkinweir's historic Estate House is often rented for weddings and special events. The parking lot is fairly small for this venue.

The Welkinweir Estate is the most stunning venue for an outdoor/nature wedding! The main ceremony location is like a secret garden - everywhere you look is more gorgeous and breath taking than the next. The reception is under a tent with the stone home on 1 side and a stunning meadow as the backdrop behind the tent. The tent has clear ceiling so you can see the stars as you dance the night away. The tables are rustic farm tables that really tie all the natural elements together. The food is catered by JAM Catering, they incorporate a natural, farm to table vibe with unique dishes that compliment the venue, along with being delicious and flavorful. I just love this venue, wish I could give 10 Stars!

Hello Maryellen, We only do house tours for groups (10 ideal but I am flexible) as we have a very small staff. We have some open houses throughout the year. If you need more info please call 610-469-7543. Thanks!
