A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- A Mediterranean-inpsired jewel dripping with turn-of-the-century charm, this historic home—once the winter residence of famed inventor Powel Crosley—occupies a prime spot at the edge of Sarasota Bay. Want to dock your boat after a romantic ride out on the bay? There's a boat basin at Powel Crosley Estate!
- The ceremony lawn boasts an unencumbered view of the Bay’s tranquil waters. Follow with cocktails and a reception in the mansion’s elegant rooms, or in the graceful Bayside Pavilion.
- They offer a range of helpful packages, including options for whole-venue buyouts, elopements and micro-weddings, photo shoots, and rehearsal dinners.
