Hilton St. Petersburg

Hilton St. Petersburg Bayfront, perched at 333 1st St S, St. Petersburg, FL 33701, is your gateway to a celebration that’s equal parts chic and soulful. Just an 8-minute stroll from the surrealist wonders of the Dali Museum and 1.2 miles from the Tampa Bay Rays’ Tropicana Field, this hotel blends urban energy with coastal ease. With a team that’s all about crafting your dream day, this is where your love story gets a St. Pete soundtrack, complete with waterfront views and a touch of Florida magic.

Let’s dive into the heart of your event: the 35,000 square feet of versatile venues that make your vision sing. The Bayside Ballroom, a 6,000-square-foot gem, hosts up to 500 with soaring ceilings and bay-view windows that bathe your reception in golden light. For a cozier affair, the Vinoy Room’s 2,000 square feet welcomes 120, its modern decor perfect for intimate toasts. The outdoor pool terrace, with its fire pit and bayfront breeze, is a showstopper for ceremonies or cocktail hours under the stars. Tangerine restaurant brings the flavor—think seared scallops or vegan quinoa bowls—served plated or buffet-style, with room service for late-night cravings. Your dedicated planner handles AV, linens, and even cigar-rolling stations for that St. Pete flair, so you can soak in every moment.

Your guests are living large in 333 rooms, each a comfy retreat with flat-screen TVs, coffee makers, and plush bedding that begs for a lazy morning. Some rooms offer balconies with bay glimpses, perfect for sipping coffee as the city wakes up. The free breakfast buffet—loaded with omelets, fresh fruit, and pastries—gets everyone fueled, while the outdoor pool and fire pit terrace are magnets for post-party hangs. The full-service spa offers massages and facials to melt pre-wedding stress, and the 24/7 fitness center keeps your crew in top shape. A free shuttle within a 3-mile radius makes exploring St. Pete’s pier or downtown a breeze, and group blocks keep your squad together with discounted rates.

Hilton St. Petersburg Bayfront doesn’t just host weddings—it elevates them with St. Pete’s creative spirit. The concierge can arrange group outings to Fort De Soto’s beaches, 16 miles away, or a pre-wedding art walk through the city’s mural-filled streets. Accessibility’s seamless—wheelchair paths, braille signage, and a pool hoist ensure everyone’s part of the vibe. From the Starbucks in the lobby to the poolside fire pit’s glow, this hotel wraps your big day in waterfront warmth, making it a celebration that hits all the right notes.
