Sunken Gardens St. Pete: Tropical Botanical Oasis Weddings

Located right in the heart of bustling St. Petersburg, Sunken Gardens is a 100-year-old botanical paradise that transports you into a completely different world. It is the ultimate venue for couples who want a lush, vibrant, tropical aesthetic.

A Tropical Oasis

The gardens are legendary, featuring cascading waterfalls, thousands of exotic plants, and brilliantly colored flamingos. The Oak Pavilion and the Wedding Lawn offer two distinctly different but equally breathtaking ceremony locations, both entirely enveloped by massive, ancient tropical foliage.

Historic Charm

For the reception, guests move into the historic Garden Room, which features beautiful vaulted ceilings and massive arched windows that overlook the illuminated gardens at night. Because the gardens are so naturally vibrant, very little additional decor is required—making it an incredibly beautiful, stress-free canvas for your celebration.

Sunken Gardens is a true Florida landmark and one of the most uniquely beautiful venues in the St. Pete region.
