Historic Bedford Springs Resort

After deciding to host their wedding in Kate’s home state of Pennsylvania, it wasn’t long before Kate and Jeff came across the Bedford Springs Resort in Bedford, Penn. Wanting an elegant, historic spot to gather all of their family members and friends, Bedford Springs was the ideal fit. Tucked away in the Allegheny Mountains, the venue boasted a serene natural setting, beautifully appointed rooms, 200 years of history and an abundance of outdoor activities and amenities for guests to enjoy throughout the weekend. “There are brides from the 1800s who ‘tested’ their engagement rings to see if they were made with real diamonds by carving their names and wedding dates into the front windows,” says Kate. “I wanted to be part of this great history.”
