Choosing the Right Time of Year for a Beach Wedding in St. Petersburg

 

The best time of year to get married on the beach in St. Petersburg, FL, depends on your preferences and priorities. Generally, the most popular time for beach weddings in St. Petersburg is from March to May and then from September to November. During these months, the weather is mild, the crowds are smaller, and the prices are generally more affordable.

However, if you don’t mind the heat and humidity, a summer wedding from June to August can be a great option. You’ll enjoy longer daylight hours, warmer water temperatures, and the chance to take advantage of the many fun summer activities in the area.

On the other hand, if you prefer cooler temperatures and a more intimate setting, a winter wedding from December to February can be a great choice. While temperatures may dip into the 50s or 60s, you’ll enjoy fewer crowds, lower prices, and the chance to take advantage of seasonal decor and activities.

Ultimately, the best time of year for your beach wedding in St. Petersburg will depend on your personal preferences, budget, and priorities.

Partners may be added or removed at any time without notice to Customer.

Beach Weddings with Style LLC is constantly reviewing its product and service offerings to strive to provide its customers with the best options available. Beach Weddings with Style LLC retains the right to revise its product and/or service offerings, at any time. Additionally, Beach Weddings with Style LLC reserves the right to add additional products and services. Purchase of a current product or service does not guarantee the exact setup – our Wedding Packages are constantly evolving in a positive manner to offer our clients more for less.  You will not be charged for upgrades if we increase features (‘Amenities’) that differ from the original purchased package.

WEATHER 

 Weather in Tampa Bay area is extremely unpredictable. Forecast may change throughout the day, hour by hour, we will always do everything in our power to work with you. Depending on the severity of the rain, you may not be able to have your ceremony as we planned. If there are any breaks in the weather, we will head out on to the sand for more pictures and celebration. If case a storm doesn’t let us have your wedding, we can decide to have your ceremony on the next day, or choose another date for up to 365 days from the original ceremony date (depending on our and vendor availability). Being flexible with your wedding time is something to expect as sometimes we may need to move the wedding time to avoid the rain. Having  Event Weather Insurance is great for hurricanes and storms. Having wedding insurance is essential since the weather is Florida is unpredictable. Should the wedding need to be moved into alternative location and it is available, this option is an accommodation and may not include all the setup materials originally included with your wedding package. There will be no ‘discount’ in this event as we will do our best to setup as much as we can accordingly. In all cases, we are not responsible for weather related events and their potential risks associated. We will always make every effort to have your Beach Wedding out on the sand!  

 CEREMONY TIME 

The Location and Time Booked is not guaranteed.  We are subject to different Municipalities, Cities, National Parks, County Parks, Local Government, and State Parks – we make every effort to ensure the original location is reserved as quickly as possible, however, this is an active calendar and last-minute bookings can occur.  Further, other events may take precedence (Festivals, Concerts, Food Rally’s, etc.) and we are subject to cancellation.  We ask that couples remain flexible as we always work in their best interest to find a suitable alternate location and date in this rare event.

PARKING

All locations are subject to Public Parking.  Please plan accordingly for parking and unusual traffic patterns.  It’s always best to arrive early and stay in an air-conditioned car as we start promptly on time.  Certain locations include the Entrance Fee. We are not allowed to reserve parking spots.  That’s why we recommend avoiding the middle of the day on Saturday/Holiday weekends.  Most locations have metered parking and can range from $1.50-4/hour or a flat fee for the day.

CANCELLATION/DEPOSIT

Non-refundable deposit is required to start a planning process. By purchasing a ceremony package on our website your will get an estimate on how much can that be. You can pay right there on check out or via email link after our phone call. The remaining balance is due no later than 60 days before the wedding date. If the payment is 5 days late your wedding will be canceled.

If you cancel your wedding ceremony, the full amount for all payments made shall not be refunded.

 

TIMING, BEACH LOCATIONS, SEATING, PUBLIC/PRIVATE LOCATIONS 

Saturday or Sunday mid-day or even early afternoon is not the best time for a wedding (beach goers, parking, traffic, etc.).  We instead recommend before 11am or after 4pm to avoid the busiest time of the date.  If you will be in town for the week, we highly recommend Monday – Friday (non-holiday weeks)!  Certain locations provide more privacy than others.  Further, the only way to have a completely private location would be on Private Property facing the Gulf of Mexico. We recommend all guests seated during the ceremony.  There are several reasons for this:  Line of Sight for the Photographer and overall organization of the event/ceremony. The Permit obtained does not guarantee us a location. All of the locations we service are located in Public Beach & Neighborhood Access points, therefore not Private Beach.  If you have specific questions regarding this, please don’t hesitate to call/email us anytime.

Minimum deposit is required to reserve the date, permit, and vendors, and all payments need to be paid completely 60 days prior to the scheduled wedding.
