“Tampa Bay Watch and Jon are literally amazing. I seriously believe this is the best wedding venue in St. Pete (even better than the resort hotels!).
The venue is completely private and on the water, so there’s no distractions during the ceremony or reception. It has an ENORMOUS 2nd-story deck, which has a beautiful view of the sunset. Jon was right, “During sunset, everyone will be out on the deck watching it.” The best part is that this organization is a key player in the community by holding field trips for local schools and actively cleaning up the bay area. Your venue payment goes to restoring and preserving the waterways, which is far more desirable than boosting a hotel’s profits.
Jon is THE reason we enjoyed booking this venue so much. He is so welcoming and flexible and “has seen it all.” He will go the distance to make your day special while clearly communicating the boundaries to protect the venue and the outdoor space.
I would definitely book a few extra hours to decorate, because you’ll want as much time as possible with your guests to actually enjoy the space. I would give them 6 stars if I could!”
