Pinecroft at Crosley Estate

happy we chose to have our wedding at Pinecroft and the planning/event management team + the rest of the team are a huge part of why. Every single person we met throughout the weekend was amazing and clearly so willing to provide whatever needed to make our day perfect. We were playing quite the game with the weather (got married under the thunder clouds!), but it was our biggest wish to have at least the ceremony outside if we could. The team’s pivots, communication and working in overdrive to ensure our ceremony somehow went off without a hitch and adjusting all the cocktail hour logistics on the fly couldn't have been more helpful and seamless. Everything would have been a disaster without the entire team’s attentiveness. They truly are experts and willing to do whatever is needed to make sure your day happens the way you envisioned. From the moment we arrived in the morning to the moment they packed our car at the end of the night the support was felt every second. So many of our friends and family have not stopped telling us how amazing their experience at our wedding was. The grounds and mansion of course speak for themselves but also had so many great callouts for the food. It was so important to us that we were giving the ultimate experience for all of our guests and the team at Delightmore & Pinecroft definitely delivered.

h! From the early stages of planning, they were organized, thorough, and made the planning fun. It was very clear they cared about giving us the best day, their quality and care was consistent in every team member we worked with. Everyone involved in the wedding day was attentive, kind, and went above and beyond any other venue I’ve ever seen. I can’t express how grateful I am to Delightmore for giving us a day we will cherish forever. Although the Pinecroft venue will no longer be available after 2025, I will be recommending any of the other beautiful Delightmore venues to family and friends in the future! THANK YOU PINECROFT TEAM! 🤍

bout the venue, service, drinks and food. The venue is beautiful and the Delightmore team was accommodating to so many of our specific asks and requests for the day. Specifically, they created a very special bar experience for us that included not just specialty cocktails but a full specialty bar with full martini and spritz menus that guests could pick and choose from to create a cocktail; they even worked with us to set up a sabering station which created a memorable highlight during cocktail hour. Pinecroft is a beautiful venue with a full floor for the bride and bridal party to get ready in. The groom and groomsmen get a very neat “man cave” to spend the morning in as well. The grounds are extremely well maintained and the secret garden in the back was truly spectacular. Thank you to Emylie, Casey, Lacie and the rest of the Delightmore team for helping us create such a beautiful day!

hed. We have experience working with numerous venues so can easily recognize when a venue team goes above and beyond, and the Pinecroft team consistently provides the best culinary and planning experience to both their vendor partners and clients. We love working with Pinecroft, and highly recommend the venue!

nd to ensure our wedding day was everything we dreamed it could be. The Pinecroft itself is an absolutely stunning venue. I’ve received endless compliments from our guests, who were all blown away by its beauty and charm. Many of them also remarked on how smoothly the day went, which is a testament to the incredible coordination and care from the DelightMore team. Working with Emylie on design was a dream. The DelightMore team’s detailed and organized planning process broke everything down into manageable steps, making what could have been daunting feel simple and fun. We didn’t even need to hire an external planner because they handled everything, which is especially impressive given that I was an out-of-town bride! They were so accommodating—offering extra design meetings, coordinating directly with our vendors, and even allowing us to take an additional tour when my dad was in town. One particularly thoughtful touch was their coordination of a special design meeting with my other vendors, Robin Wood Flowers and The Plant Trolley. During this meeting, we reviewed the design for our tent, and it was amazing to watch that group work together to create such a beautiful and cohesive design. On the wedding day, everything ran perfectly. If anything went wrong, I never knew about it because the DelightMore team had it all under control. They provided breakfast and snacks in the morning, and we were able to get ready at the venue, which made the day so much easier. The flow of events was effortless, and I was able to truly relax and enjoy every moment without worrying about logistics. The food was absolutely delicious, and they were so thoughtful in accommodating my food allergies and those of my guests. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and they thought of things I never would have considered, ensuring no stone was left unturned. For example, they set aside time during the cocktail hour for my husband and me to unwind for a few minutes and made sure we had the chance to eat some food and try all of our hors d’oeuvres. They even snuck us some cake when I requested it! At the end of the night, they sent us home with our desserts so we could enjoy them later. What truly sets DelightMore apart is their genuine excitement and care. The team was just as invested in my wedding as I was, and it felt like they were right there with me, helping to make my dreams come true. I even got to see several team members throughout the day, which made it so special to share in the joy of what we’d worked on together. I had such a great experience that it’s hard to choose which anecdotes to include in this review—I have so many examples of the team being flexible, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in making the day perfect. I am so thankful for this incredible experience and wish this level of care and professionalism for every bride. The Pinecroft and DelightMore made my wedding day unforgettable, and I cannot recommend them enough.

Emylie, Michelle, & Garrett!

nd people we had the day of our wedding to ensure it ran smoothly without a single hiccup. They had so many small touches that made the experience awesome- from the team who set up our breakfast and lunch, to how they folded the napkins for our reception, to having apps and drinks setup for the bride and groom to make sure we had time to eat, and so much more. Our guests still talk about how beautiful the venue was and how amazing the dinner was! Pinecroft is a charming, elegant venue with an awesome team and the best food. I highly recommend!

are amazing! Thank you pinecroft

ing and Pinecroft did anything and everything to make the day perfect. The entire staff was amazing and treated us so well! Everyone had a great time!! I absolutely reccomend Pinecroft or any Delightmore venue!

or/outdoor cocktail hour, and an indoor reception (this was in a fancy tent structure that feels more like a ballroom than a tent). Across the garden, prep areas (a “man cave” in the basement for the groomsmen and upstairs areas for bridesmaids), and more, there were also a ton of cool, unique-feeling spaces. More imoortantly, our experience with the Pinecroft/Delightmore team couldn’t have been any better. They were passionate and on top of things from start to finish. Clearly a team that “gets it” and balances professional expertise with making our vision a reality. Several instances of the team going above and beyond for us, including literally dumpster diving to recover a momento we left behind after the wedding. We had an incredible wedding at Pinecroft and highly recommend it to anyone interested.

overed in-house, we were able to plan the wedding of our dreams. We highly recommend this venue and the entire Delightmore team who were so helpful in seamlessly assisting us in planning the wedding and through a fun party for all of our guests. Almost every single person at the wedding commented on 1. How beautiful the space is and 2. How everything seemed to go perfectly.

e treated royally! The staff was exceptional from the grounds crew to the servers, friendly and smiles on their faces. Pinecroft made the day magically for the bride and groom along with all their guests.

nt tent just scratches the surface on how amazing this venue is. We photographed a recent wedding at Pinecroft and their staff couldn't have been nicer. We are so glad our couple chose Pinecroft because it made our jobs so easy. The backdrop of every photo is to die for. If you are looking for an upscale, elegant wedding, check out Pinecroft!

reception space - we also got married in November, so I can’t blame that entirely on them! They allowed our guests to leave vehicles overnight and for us to pick up our decor a couple days after our wedding, which was a huge help. They truly wanted to make our day magical, and it absolutely was.

extremely knowledgeable and professional when it comes to planning a wedding. We could not recommend the Pinecroft enough. If you are looking for a beautiful, secluded venue with amazing food, drinks and staff that knows exactly what they are doing - look no further. We frequently worked with Michele Roth, Emylie Hill and Laura Randall. All three of them provided excellent guidance throughout the planning process into the day of our wedding. They were an absolute joy to work with. The venue itself is beautiful and has both a groomsmen suite and a bridal suite for getting ready. The actual estate is breathtaking and has a real english royalty charm to it which I loved and the backyard and gardens were perfect for cocktail hour. The venue is owned by a catering company, DelightMore (formerly Funky’s Catering) and the food was AMAZING. Every single guest at our wedding raved about the food and left their plates clean. Lastly, every staff member we coordinated with, from our main coordinator Michele to the day of staff helping around the venue, were so great to work with. They truly made my husband and I feel special and catered to on our wedding day. I could not recommend this venue enough. They really provide a 5 star experience in every aspect of the planning process to the big day. Thanks for an amazing experience!! We will never forget our amazing wedding day. - Alicia & Christopher Ruebelman

event was still seamless. This is a testament to the management and professionalism of the employees. Food was amazing. I can not recommend more highly.

om our first phone call until the last minute of our beautiful wedding! The attention to detail is the next level. We only came once in November and arrived 4 days before our wedding. Typically, this could cause a lot of stress but there was little to zero stress because the staff is just that good. Every detail was taken into consideration and our timeline was executed to the minute. Another great thing about Pinecroft is due to the expansive estate, there are so many different ways to set up your ceremony, cocktail hour and reception to fit your vision. The space for the Bridal party is several rooms and more then enough space for a large wedding party to get ready. The groomsmen space is also great. The space is also great for sudden changes in plans, like weather. We had planned on getting married in the orchard but when it ended up threatening rain, the team was able to shift our ceremony inside 2 hours before the ceremony and then flip back the space under 10 minutes for our reception. I could go on forever about all the special moments and how impressive every person we interacted with while planning our wedding. Having our wedding at Pinecroft was a huge part of why our wedding was as magical as it was!

d accommodating. They truly go above and beyond to serve their couples throughout the planning process and on the day of the event! Natalie Rice Owner & Lead Planner Natalia’s Event Planning

were Wonderful and very Helpful! The grounds are so Lovely and well maintained! The estate is so Charming! The garden pavilion is Magical! The food was Delicious! We were so Blessed to be able to Celebrate our daughter's and son-in-law's wedding at this Wonderful venue!

It was a joy to work with these folks and the venue is absolutely gorgeous. All of our guests thought they were on the set of Downten Abbey...the grounds and gardens were beautiful. The Bridal Suite where the bride and bridesmaids got ready was so sweet, decorated in pink roses, turquois and white...all girly, while the guys had a terrific man cave/wine celler to get ready in. Overall it was THE BEST EXPERIENCE and made our day the best it could possibly be. I can't say enough positive things about the venue. It's a very special place.

nd her team, we felt like they understood what we wanted the day to look and feel like. Meagan did an outstanding job of nailing the day of and making sure the day moved along as it should. From the morning and getting ready, to the evening, to our sparkler send off, Pinecroft exceeded our expectations. I can't say enough great things about them. If we were to do it all over again, we would pick Pinecroft over and over again. The estate, the help, and the organization was top notch! Pinecroft made our special day one we will always be able to speak so highly of!

can’t recommend them enough.

am at Funky's was helpful in planning my wedding and making everything go seamlessly on the big day.

everything from the getting ready to the reception in one spot made the day flow so much easier, and our guests were raving about how beautiful everything was. We had great weather, but they ran us through the rain plan and even that was so beautiful. Julia, our event coordinator was always easy to reach and knowledgable about everything, and also just a super fun and enthusiastic person. Meagan, our day of coordinator, ran a tight ship - literally not a single thing went wrong the whole day thanks to her and her assistants. I felt informed and supported by them the whole time we were planning the event, and they even packed up our car for us at the end of the night, which for us was a ton of stuff since I DIYed a ton. The price felt steep when we first got the contract, but throughout the day my husband and I saw how many people were there helping and serving and doing a thousand different things - and all of them doing it with great attitudes and energy, we can't imagine having paid any less for what we got. Really really could not be happier - and as an added bonus, if you get married here, the next year they invite you to a catered Valentine's Day dinner at the estate - so you even get a date night out of it :)

ng. One of the reasons we initially went with the Pinecroft was because of how “full service” and organized they are with a coordinator working out all the details with you before and a full crew for the day. We created all of the lists, a map, and had multiple meetings with the team but on the actual day... it was a bit of a mess. There seemed to be some communication breakdown, because the crew did not have any of our lists, the chairs were in the wrong arrangement, a tent was missing, the hors d'oeuvres were incorrect, no one seemed to know where things went, and they were not keeping track of what had arrived or if anything was missing. I would say “trust, but verify” that things on the wedding day are as you expected and discussed during the planning meetings. Better to find out early with time to fix it than to be surprised and disappointed when it’s too late. All of that said, everything turned out beautiful in the end, and if we had to do it again, we’d pick the Pinecroft in a heartbeat. There were so many details that made the day incredible. They recommended a historian that knew all about the Crosley’s and we brought him in during the happy hour. The guys had their own man cave to chill in before the wedding, the women had their own bubbly bar, and we had a sparkler sendoff to cap off the night.

long the way in communicating updates. We couldn't have had a better group of people to work with that guided us in the right direction and helped us every step of the way. The level of professionalism from this team was incredibly calming and enabled my husband and I to have the best wedding. I would recommend this venue whole heartedly to anyone who is considering an outdoor wedding in the Cincinnati area.

ade the day flow perfectly without myself, my husband, or any of our family members having to lift a finger the day of. And of course the food through Funky's is out of this world. I cannot recommend Pinecroft and Funky's enough

wedding planning and design services of Beth and specialty staff whose expertise guides you and advises you through the whole process. Beth and Hillary were amazing to work with and they created a vision that exceeded our expectations. Beth provided the best advice on everything from decor, table layout to vendors and scheduling, and she was there on the wedding day to make sure everything was perfect. She helped calm our fears and she always had everything under control. Funky's service was incredible. The servers were everywhere but yet invisible. The food was excellent and Carlene and the food and bar staff were very courteous and professional. Kevin did an amazing job with the outside flowers. Our guests are still talking about the spectacular wedding a month later. I wouldn't have changed a thing. Seriously, Pinecroft is one stop shopping and Funky's did an excellent job and are worth every penny. They will create your vision and exceed your expectations.

fun to work with at all our meetings. They helped create the vision of our dreams and our wedding was just a fairy tale of a day. On top of that Funky's has the best service and everyone at the wedding raved about how good both the service and food was! The property is stunning, nothing else like it in Cincinnati.

. The wedding party got ready in the mansion, and I couldn't have pictured doing it differently. A unique and spacious setting, with wonderful staff to help with anything you needed. The property and home is so gorgeous we took majority of our wedding photos here, and they turned out beautiful. The tent in the back for our reception was great, with the gardens outside for cocktail hour. Funky's ran the show on schedule, served wonderful food and drinks, and were a pleasure to work with throughout the whole process. I cannot recommend this venue more! So many guests were very complimentary, and much of that thanks goes to Funky's/Pinecroft.

accommodating and their knowledge and professionalism helped in planning the most perfect wedding of a lifetime. The entire Funky’s staff, including Laura who helped guide us through the ceremony, and Alyssa, the catering manager were well organized and very professional. The food was amazing! Compliments to the Chef who took the time to visit tables to assure everyone was satisfied. I apologize for not being able to name him. We can’t forget David our Butler who worked tirelessly from the beginning of day from our arrival at 8am until departure and was everywhere for everybody. David was awesome! Kudos also to all the army of staff who worked diligently to see that our event was everything we dreamed of and more. Without hesitation, I would recommend this Venue to anyone who dreams of a storybook wedding. You will not regret contacting Pinecroft!

oordinator who is no longer with the company. About 6 months in to our planning process, we received an email from Hilary stating she would be taking over for this woman's place & could we come in to discuss some things. At first we were a bit miffed, how could they just change coordinators mid-process. However, upon meeting Hilary & Beth - boy were wrong to be upset! These ladies are literal wedding ANGELS! They wanted to talk to us about the layout of the reception as well as some decor we had picked. Suffice to say, we ended up basically changing everything & starting over - and thank God we did! These ladies know what's up! They were so wonderful with any questions we had in the planning process, the communication with everyone on Funky's Catering team is phenomenal. As we entered wedding week, weather was a concern. We had planned an outdoor ceremony, but it was looking like rain was pretty much a guarantee when it came down to it. I told them I wanted to hold off & call it day-of if we needed to change things to indoor. Well, day of came & it was only sprinkling in the AM, I told them I'd still like to be set up outside & they obliged. As we got ready, everyone was SO attentive making sure if we needed anything, we had it very quickly. The staff all knew our plans and everything ran so smoothly behind the scenes. The only decision I had to make all day was to move our ceremony inside. Unfortunately, it did end up pouring as the day progressed & we had to move things into the reception tent. By the time I went downstairs to see how everything would be set up, the job was done. They already flipped the room & set up chairs inside. It was stunning! Honestly, hearing the rain pound on the roof of the tent was the most romantic experience. The staff handled the change beautifully! We were worried things would be tight in the mansion for our guests - we had about 230 guests - but everyone had access to roam the rooms & hors d'oeuvres were still passed successfully! Pinecroft/Funky's are literal miracle workers, I'm telling you! From the planning, to the setup, to the tear down I honestly cannot recommend any other venue/staff. Every single person I encountered was a doll & you can tell these people absolutely LOVE what they do. The entire experience was just perfect!

Couldn't recommend them more!

ght like we had for our reception. Making the tent drafty and noisy. The caterer HAS to be Funky's. The food was good at the reception, excellent at the tasting. Ran out of one entree, but did not tell our guests they cd go to the closed buffet and get the entree. Our event coordinator was released from the Funky's staff during our planning. Due to lack of training, lack of commitment or overwhelmed by the job. I do not know. The former employee was replaced by 2 people. We were not aware of the change or that Funky's was unaware of our wedding until we emailed with a question 2 1/2 mos prior to our wedding. The former employee took all of our info with her. All that we verbally agreed to with the former employee was no longer an option. We had several issues with our reception. Even though we had 2 meetings with staff, one including Funky, prior to the event. We had a meeting after our event and it turns out all the issues were "our fault or the fault of the terrible weather." However, gratuity was mentioned 3x , before and after the event. If you choose Funky's - get everything in writing. The left hand did not know what the right hand was doing. Keep in mind the captain can/will make decisions that are not what you wanted. We planned our wedding for 18 months. We were available for calls, emails, meetings, the entire time. This is our second daughter to marry. First wedding was a little larger than this one. Many of the same guests at both events. The difference was night and day. I, the mother of the bride, am posting this in hopes that no family will have our unfortunate experience. The wedding of your child is so special. Human error should not spoil it for you, especially when you are paying so much to make it nice.

the entire day, and they could not have been nicer. We were supposed to have an outdoor ceremony, and when the rain picked up about 40 minutes before it started they busted their butts to move everything indoors to make it look just as gorgeous as it would have been in the Orchard. They were accommodating the entire night, and even made the sure guests were happy with their food after dinner (their food is amazing by the way!) I highly recommend this venue for an amazing and gorgeous wedding day experience! My guests are still talking about how amazing it was :)

a guest was ill they found blankets and took care of her. We all had a wonderful time, perfect. I can't praise or thank them enough. Mother of the Bride.

ime that it was the best wedding they had ever been to....I highly recommend this venue for a beautiful wedding!

ay. Funky's staff is so attentive to detail and hospitable and made sure they carried out all our little requests, and they ran our whole day so smoothly. Even set up and tore down our decor for us so we didn't have to worry about a thing. The food is amazing as well. We have no regrets about having our wedding here! Thank you so much!!!

hing. We thought the wedding day would be the most stressful day when we were planning, but they really made it so relaxing for everyone involved. All of our other vendors loved working here and kept complimenting the venue. They were right. The day went so smoothly, even when there was rain in the forecast and they didn't know if we may have to move inside at the last minute. It will always hold a special place in our hearts as our beautiful wedding venue.

time our entrance music to fixing my bustle halfway through the reception. So grateful for everyone there!

events. The scenery speaks for itself, and the house has great space to get ready in!

site and house is absolutely beautiful. With the number of out of town bridesmaids, getting ready here rather than traveling around town really made things easier. Plus, getting ready there was so much fun. We had my nieces there with us and the staff was very nice and took them on a tour of the house, even going to so far as to tell them about the third floor ghost. After that tour they could not stop talking about the ghost and the house. They truly went above and beyond in every way. I had emphasized how much I love appetizers. . . well during the cocktail hour I constantly had waiters offering me some and during the break between the cocktail hour and reception, when my husband and I were upstairs. . . there were fresh beers and a plate of appetizers waiting for us! I could not have been happier. With Funky's catering, how could you go wrong? Their food is amazing!!!!! I could walk up to the bar and the bartender would just hand me my next drink without asking. I could go on and on but I am just trying to highlight a few things that stood out to me (clearly I like food and drinks). Ask my mom and the other people involved and I am sure they would have a whole different list of compliments.

roft through the planning process was lovely - we used several of their vendors (Spoon Fulla Sugar, DJ Toad, Eastgate Flowers) and were pleased with all of them. Everything went according to plan. The only hiccup we had was during the ceremony - the rehearsal was not well executed and we had several family members sitting by one another that were not supposed to be (divorced parents, etc). The bridal party also was unsure where to stand. We got married outside and it was a windy day, and the mic that our pastor was using kept clipping and cutting out during our vows. I would suggest making sure that that the rehearsal is done at Pinecroft if you are having your ceremony there. However, the ceremony was absolutely GORGEOUS ( we were married in the orchard facing the mansion), and Debbie from Eastgate did an incredible job on the flowers. Our cocktail hour went off without a hitch, and DJ Toad even streamed the derby for us in the mansion. The reception was UNBELIEVABLE. Davidson was our captain, and he exceeded our expectations. The food was incredible (the chef personally visited each table to make sure everyone was satisfied), the party was going all night long, and it was beautiful. Our vision was definitely brought to life - it was nothing short of magical. We had several people say it was the most beautiful wedding they'd ever attended. We are so happy we chose Pinecroft, and would recommend it to anyone!
