The Powel Crosley Estate, originally built in 1929 by the renowned inventor and entrepreneur Powel Crosley, was initially used as a winter retreat known as Sea Gate.

Offering a variety of spaces, the Crosley Estate can accommodate up to 800 guests, providing ample room for dining and dancing.

The dedicated team at the Crosley Estate is committed to delivering exceptional experiences, ensuring that each wedding is as unique and memorable as the couple themselves. They collaborate with six local caterers to provide top-notch food and beverage services, including alcohol and bar service. Couples are welcome to bring in their wedding planner to customize their event further.
