So easy to work with and so incredibly beautiful!!! Our guests really loved that we could have ceremony and reception all in one place. Parking and bridal suite is included! Truly a fairytale venue!!
We could not be more happy with our decision to have our wedding at Groesbeck Estate. The venue is absolutely beautiful and we have received so many compliments from family and guests about the space. I really wanted a venue that spoke for itself and didn't need a lot of decor to make it beautiful, well this was the PERFECT venue for that. I gave four stars only because we had a lot of changeover with the staff assigned to work with us, which made things feel a little more stressful in the planning process. However, despite all of that, the day went absolutely perfectly. The staff present day-of were so helpful and worked really hard to make sure everything was organize and running smoothly. Rachel and Kristen were the staff at the venue helping us day of and they went above and beyond to make sure everything went according to plan. I absolutely recommend booking with Cincinnati Nature Center if you want a beautiful outdoor wedding.
Beautiful venue for my October 2023 wedding. The grounds are amazing and I've recieved so many compliments from guests about how beautiful the venue was. Staff is communicative and easy to work with throughout the planning process. I really appreciated the multiple meetings they set up as it got closer to the day to go over all of the details and make sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend this beautiful venue.
Any questions?
We got married at the Groesbeck Estate at the Cincinnati Nature Center. We chose this venue because we wanted an outdoor wedding that had a lot of natural beauty, and it was the perfect choice! Furthermore, CNC makes an active effort in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Laura Peterson was a tremendous help in planning our wedding. She responded quickly and provided great advice when we had questions. She stayed in contact with our vendors so that the wedding day was stress free on our end. Thank you so much to CNC for giving us a perfect wedding day! We cannot recommend this venue enough!
The Groesbeck Estate wedding venue at the Cincinnati Nature Center exceeded all of our expectations. We had our ceremony in the pillar garden and our reception on the back deck under the tent. Sandy was our day of coordinator and she did an exceptional job with every single detail. I can't say enough good things about this venue.
Having my wedding at the Groesbeck Estate last October was the best decision I ever had and I can't recommend it enough.
Amazing intimate location nestled away with breathtaking views of the surrounding forest! The inside of the Estate was restored with a great bridal suite that allowed for a lot of natural light in. I had always wanted to get married outside during in October but with the way Cincinnati weather can be unpredictable, I needed a venue that would allow for me to have a weather safety net if needed - which the Estate did have by having an all weather tent up on the back-terrace. I could not have had a perfect wedding day if it wasn't for Julie, the Rental and Event Manager. Julie was absolutely amazing to work with and was so helpful the entire way through. She was easygoing and professional from the start, and had always made us feel like a priority even though I knew she was handling a lot of other couples at the same time! I would recommend the Groesbeck Estate to any couple looking for a beautiful venue to celebrate their big day or or anyone searching for a venue for a special event.

Thank you so much! Jessamine and Adam were such a pleasure to work with.
The Groesbeck Estate at the Cincinnati Nature Center was the PERFECT place to host our special day. Tucked away in the outskirts of Cincinnati, the Groesbeck Estate provides a private, yet centralized location within minutes from multiple hotel options. Accompanied by the Pillar Gardens, the Groesbeck Estate provided us with a beautiful backdrop for the outdoor wedding of our dreams at one centralized location. I cannot say enough positive things about our experience, the staff was wonderful and the venue was beautiful, I would recommend Groesbeck to anyone looking for a wedding venue for their big day!

Thank you so much! It was such a pleasure to work with the both of you!
Lovely venue! So picturesque! Reasonably priced, and easy to arrange what I needed/wanted. Only consideration is limited catering options. But a lot of venues limit caterers, so...
The venue rental/event manager is also really great to work with.
We would host a big event here again, for sure!

Thank you so much! It was so nice to work with you to make your big day so special!
Groesbeck was an absolutely beautiful place to get married. With plenty of space, indoors and outdoors, this was a safe place to host a wedding during the COVID-19 era. We really appreciate all Julie did, especially the day of, to help create our beautiful wedding day. We love the Nature Center, and are so glad we chose this venue. They included the tent for an outdoor covered area, and most places will charge you a LOT more for that feature. The upstairs event suite was a great place for my bridesmaids and I to get ready, and the scenery for photos is unbeatable. They have a list of preferred caterers, and the caterer we chose from their list did a great job, as well. I would highly recommend this venue for anyone looking to get married surrounded by the beauty of nature!

Thank you so much! Both of you were so great to work with!
This was the perfect venue for our wedding! It has wonderful indoor and outdoor spaces and was extremely adaptable in how to set everything up. Julie and her staff were amazing - she walked us through everything step by step, answered emails and questions in a timely manner, met with us and our vendors when needed/wanted, and provided outstanding day-of service. I truly could not have asked for anything more!
