Dear Courtney, Meghan, and The White Room Staff,
Thank you so much for all of your help in making our wedding day perfect. You went above and beyond to make everything flow effortlessly! Thank you for everything. We could not have picked a better venue and many of our guests said that it was the best wedding they’d ever been to, including the father of the bride! We attribute that to the great location, fabulous food, and wonderful waitstaff. For all of these things, Thank You.
Sincerely,
J and C Smith
Dear Shannon, Meghan, and the rest of the White Room staff,
Thank you so much for everything you did to help make our wedding such a memorable event. We can’t tell you how many compliments we received on the reception-the food, the decor, the friendly staff, even the patio furniture! Our wedding has been pronounced “the best”, and after it was all over it was so nice to walk next door to the Bella Bay Inn and kick our shoes off in a beautiful room. We wish you all continued success and many more happy newlyweds.
Love,
L and J Robinson

With highest regards,

When I first saw a picture of the White Room on a photographer’s website I knew I had to see it in person. Once I saw the dark hardwood floors, exposed brick walls, floor to ceiling mirrors, and the wall of windows overlooking the Matanzas Bay I was sold. This place is absolutely gorgeous!! The space can accommodate any style or theme. There are three options available; the main ballroom, the loft space for a more intimate feel or the rooftop. Each space is beautiful. The food was amazing! You can choose from a variety of options from a formal sit down dinner to a buffet style brunch. The choice is yours. Shannon and the rest of the staff were great!! Any question I had she answered and when the wedding day came, I knew that I didn’t have to worry about a thing.

Courtney and The White Room Gang,
Thank you SO much for making our wedding day perfect! We were beyond pleased with everything, especially the food. Please let the chef know how happy we were with the delicious food – and to think it was local and organic! Our family and friends also had so much fun and they want us to have an anniversary party there. Maybe we’ll see you again in a few years.
All the best,
A and P O’Donoughue

Love the setting
Wedding 8/1/2010
My father and I found this vendor a few months before the wedding and I fell in love. The main room, especially after dark, is amazing between the lighting, wood floors, and the amazing view. The staff is amazing and really works with you to ensure that this is the best experience you will ever have. Unfortunately it rained on our wedding so we could not use the rooftop as planned but the staff moved everything so quick and quietly that my guests never noticed, and they let me make the final call instead of telling me what would happen. The over all cost wasn’t that bad, and in all fairness we did opt. for the highest package they offered…and it was worth every penny. I really wish I had made my reception longer there, but the memories will never be forgotten.

Wedding 6/19/2010
I came to The White Room after having already booked another venue. The moment I saw The Loft at The White Room and met Shannon, I changed my venue. Shannon and her staff were amazing. If Shannon wasn’t available Megan had an answer for me. I knew that my wedding day was as important to them as it was for me. On our wedding day the wait staff was awesome. Bringing my girls and I water, one waitress even brought me a fan to fight off the heat! Shannon was pleasant and handled everyone’s anxiousness with a smile. The Loft itself stole the show. Our guests could not stop applauding the roof top! My husband and I are already trying to figure out how we can have another party in the Loft at the The White Room!!

Beautiful, romantic, and elegant
Wedding 6/6/2010
When my fiancĂ© and I were looking for a venue for our wedding, we were having a hard time finding a place we could both agree on and afford. I saw a picture of the White Room on a photographer’s website and immediately fell in love. Then when I visited it, I knew it was the place for us. The space itself is absolutely stunning. From the exposed brick walls, floor to ceiling mirrors and curtains, a wall of windows overlooking the Matanzas Bay, and dark wood floors, this space can compliment any color scheme or design theme. There is also an intimate 3rd floor loft that is great for smaller affairs. If you are wanting to enjoy a great view, then the rooftop space is for you. It overlooks the St. Augusine marina, the bay and the newly renovated Bridge of Lions. Throughout the entire planning process, the staff at the White Room, especially Shannon Walters, were wonderful. They were able to answer any of our questions, settle our nerves, and handle any complications along the way. Come the day of our wedding, I knew that there was nothing to worry about. The food was amazing!! We did a buffett style reception, but they offer several different options to cater to everyone. All of our guests loved the potato martini bar (highly recommended). So if you are looking for a space that as character with elegance, then this is the venue for you.

GREAT VENUE!!!
Wedding 4/2010
What a great place for a wedding or any type of party!! The room is beautiful and the views are breathtaking! The staff was very organized and easy to work with. They were very quick to respond to emails or voicemails and answer any questions that I had. They also worked well with the other vendors (florist, coordinator, etc) that were there for the big day! Additionally, the food was amazing! The staff that handled the food and the bar was great and very friendly! I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a memorable event!
Perfect Site for the Trendy Bride
Wedding 3/27/2010
When my husband and I walked onto this site we booked it on the spot. It is such an amazing space in the historic St. Augustine. We are still getting comments from our guests about how the food was outstanding. We were able to really turn the space into exactly what we wanted due to the neutral canvas. The staff was outstanding as well as they allowed us to enjoy ourselves and not smothering you with ‘things to do’ during the reception. Everything was very laid back and enjoyable.
