St. Petersburg is a vibrant city located on the west coast of Florida, known for its cultural amenities, waterfront attractions, and outdoor activities.  St. Petersburg is situated on the Pinellas Peninsula, bordered by Tampa Bay to the east and the Gulf of Mexico to the west. It is part of the Tampa Bay Area, which includes cities like Tampa and Clearwater which is why we love this destination.  


The location & abundance of activities made it a perfect wedding destination for our family.  


The city's downtown area is a hub of cultural and entertainment activities. It features a mix of museums, art galleries, restaurants, and shops. The waterfront along Tampa Bay is adorned with parks and scenic views.


St. Petersburg is also home to The Dali Museum, which houses an extensive collection of works by the renowned surrealist artist Salvador Dali. The museum's distinctive architecture and exhibits make it a cultural landmark in the city.


This historic botanical garden in St. Petersburg is over 100 years old and showcases lush tropical plants, cascading waterfalls, and a variety of exotic animals. It's a peaceful oasis in the heart of the city to enjoy.  


The St. Pete Pier is a great waterfront destination featuring a variety of shops, restaurants, and recreational activities. We always enjoy the panoramic views of Tampa Bay when we rent bikes or take a stroll along the scenic pier.


The Vinoy Renaissance St. Petersburg Resort & Golf Club, a historic hotel, is a beautiful location for a wedding.  There are actually multiple locations that would make for a beautiful destination wedding.


One thing we love about St Petersburg is the Craft Breweries and a Culinary Scene. The city has a burgeoning craft brewery scene, with many establishments offering a variety of locally brewed beers. St. Petersburg's culinary scene is diverse, featuring a range of restaurants offering international cuisines and fresh seafood.


The Art District in St. Petersburg has vibrant art districts such as the Warehouse Arts District and the Grand Central District, where you can explore galleries, studios, and street art.


St. Petersburg's mix of cultural offerings, natural beauty, and recreational activities makes it a favorite destination for my family.
