Kylie and Dan’s intimate outdoor spring wedding was filled with luscious greens and fresh blooms at Historic Ashland. The venue’s historic charm coupled with its modern touches made it the perfect location for this simple yet elegant celebration.

Tucked away in Central Pennsylvania’s countryside, Historic Ashland’s private and intimate estate offers an all-in-one experience allowing couples to craft their dream wedding day. Day-of-coordinators, such as Amanda Stauffer, who supported Kylie and Dan’s big day, are there to ensure the execution of your wedding day is stress-free and flawless.
