Look no further than the St Pete Beach Community Center for your wedding!!!! The location can NOT be beat! It is a new facility, and with the balcony upstairs, watching the sunset is breathtaking! Kelley Poole made things so easy for us booking from Texas.

The St Pete Beach Community Center could not have been a more perfect setting for our wedding. I was so happy to find a beautiful location that was by the water, but not on the beach. In the courtyard, we were able to have a formal ceremony with a beachy feel. They provided 50 chairs for the ceremony, which cut down on the number of chairs we had to rent. The reception area was equally perfect. I love the full wall of windows overlooking the Intercoastal during dinner. The venue was very clean, nice restrooms, and easily accessible for the elderly and small children. They also provided a bridal room, as well as a room for the groomsmen to be in before the ceremony. The prices are very reasonable for all that you get. Kelley does a great job of coordinating everything before the big, and she was so helpful with all of my questions. I also hired her to coordinate the ceremony, which she did a great job of.I have no complaints about this awesome venue!

Just a note to tell you how pleased we were with the St Pete Beach Community Center as a site for son and now daughter-in-law's wedding this past Saturday. I can't tell you how many guests complimented us on the venue and remarked how gorgeous the setting was - and they were right! We really appreciated being able to drop off centerpieces, etc. on Friday. It proved a huge help and allowed us time to help the caterer set up between the ceremony and reception. Parking was plentiful and the room was beautiful. The room stayed cool and comfortable throughout the party even with lots of dancing! The lighting options and ease of accessing them was great and we were able to dim and raise the lights as needed during the party. We appreciated having access to the entire center as it gave the wedding party some privacy before the reception and of course, we were able to have the children in a private room supervised by counselors, which worked out great for the kids and their parents who were attending the reception. The room was set for a full 180 people but by putting the buffet in the lobby and the bar on the patio we had a plenty of room for a well used dance floor. Thank you for your help and that of your staff. We had a wonderful experience with your venue.

The venue was gorgeous! I absolutely loved having a beachy wedding without having to deal with the sand (think women in heels, elderly family members, etc). Having the ceremony and reception all at one location really extended the amount of time we had for the reception which was great. The staff was helpful and friendly. Kelley was quick to respond to emails and I actually hired her company Tickled Pink to do my day of coordination and they did an AMAZING job. The one complaint I had were that 2 of the tables did fall. It was after dinner and during the dancing so it was not a big deal. One someone bumped into pretty hard, the other - we're still not sure how it fell. Just be aware of that. Even though the tables fell -we still had an amazing night and I would definitely recommend the venue.

This venue is a hidden gem in St. Pete Beach. The venue is located right on the water and Kelly the wedding coordinator was so helpful. The space was perfect for 140 guest with plenty of room.

The St. Pete Community Center is a beautiful location hands down. Since we'd used the facility earlier for a graduation party, it was the 1st choice for my daughter & her future husband. Kelly & the staff were kind and helpful from the very beginning. We were/are a group that had a lot of questions. Throughout all of our planning, we were NEVER made to feel that our questions were too much or imposing. Our questions were answered kindly, patiently and they even made helpful suggestions. I would recommend this facility to anyone and this staff I applaude.THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP IN MAKING THIS A WONDERFUL DAY

We had both our ceremony and reception here at the St. Pete Beach Rec Center. Everything was perfect. The venue was very clean and there was someone on hand that the caterer could call when we needed anything. Such a beautiful place for a romantic wedding. Esp. if you want the beach wedding feel with a little more class and less sand in between your toes : ).

Great experience!!! I highly recommend this venue for a perfect Florida wedding. Be prepared to work though--it isn't a venue that does all the fine touched for your. I recommend hiring an event designer/decoratoe like Brighten Interiors--Beck and Mary 727-656-7010 or 727-492-8918. They are fabulous!

I have recommended this venue to many people, and will continue to do so. I was so impressed with the ease of booking this site, and it made my wedding day perfect. Thank you!

Wonderful venue. It was beautiful, very clean and the staff was very helpful. The only negative was the traffic noise that made the ceremony somewhat hard to hear.

My mother-in-law was the one who found this site while searching online, and when I went to see it in person, I knew I had to have my wedding reception at their location. The site was clean, open, and had a beautiful view. My guests complimented the site numerous times, and I was very pleased when I entered the hall and saw how well it had all been decorated. I was VERY pleased with the location and the amenities.

I love love love this venue! I had my ceremony downstairs in the courtyard and reception upstairs. The courtyard is very beautiful. It was like being on the beach without detailing with the sand. Kelly was very helpful in setting up all my wedding details. They set up all the chairs and tables at no extra cost. The reception room is spacious and has a great view over looking the water. Thank you Kelly and staff for making my wedding day beautiful!

This venue was really great and I would not hesitate to recommend it. The date I originally wanted was booked so make sure you book well in advance. The views were beautiful. We did have to rent some extra chairs for outside, as they have a limited number. Kelley is really helpful with letting you know what they have available and what you need to supply.
