Wedding date - check. Ceremony venue - check. Boutique Motel Reservation - check. What’s left on your list… the pre-wedding party!!
Planning a night out can be a lot - but we’ve got you! There is much to prepare for, so we’ve made it easier for you by compiling our favorite recommendations for all the best going-ons about town for all members of the “I-Do Crew”.
Drinks with a View:
Enjoy drinks in the warm evening breeze overlooking a 360 view of the sunset… at a rooftop bar! Grab a couple cocktails to start your evening, book your rehearsal dinner or even your bridal shower at Saly Marro Rooptop Bar. Mingle at the rooftop bar and play games in the open-air patio at Lala St. Pete or book one of their private themed karaoke rooms. Go all out and rent a private Tiki Hut by the Pier at Pier Teaki.
The St. Pete area has so many options when it comes to rooftop bars, you’ll have many choices - this list features a few more rooftop recommendations.
A LUX Experience: A Day at the Beach
Chill out in style with a luxury beach set up - a perfect aesthetic for picnics and photoshoots! St. Beach Cabana Rentals have customizable packages available for rent. Their teams set up and break down - all you have to do is show up and enjoy!
Make a Splash! Throw a Private Pool Party:
Make every Bach Party-member feel like a VIP by hosting a day at a private pool party! The Godfrey Hotel & Cabanas' WTR Pool is available for party reservations - adults only. This spot has all the luxurious accommodations you might need: poolside lounges and seating, specialty cocktails and small bites, furnished private cabanas, and of course, an amazing oceanfront view.
Booze Cruise
Sip out at sea with a booze cruise! Cruise through the Tampa Shore with Staying Afloat Party Boat partying into the sunset. Throughout the day you can book a two-hour boat excursion with Totally Tiki Tours on the water. Plan some fun in the sun by booking a party boat with Bach Boats - they have boat selections and bach party exclusive offers to fit your party vibe, from chill to the party-never-stops… they even have a boat with a slide!
Out & About: Downtown St. Pete
Wining and dining in Downtown St. Pete is a foodie’s dream! From incredible waterfront restraunts to themed bars and rooftop parties, there will be something for everyone’s liking. Make the night something special by curating a Party Package through Downtown Crawlers; these packages have mad perks like specialty discounts, custom merch, waved club fees, and more! Packages are customizable based on what your parties requirements are (including private party bus services).
Zoom Around Town in Style:
Private car services for your night out is a good idea all around - you’ll be responsible and stylish. Of course there are options like Uber or Lift, but we recommend being *extra*. If pizzazz is what you're going for, then 1st Class Party Bus is the ride for you! The party doesn’t stop, even in transit! Think sleek sheets, LED lights, and a party pole… in the middle of the Limo!
For stylish, larger transportation, Elite Party Bus provides the service for you. They also offer wedding weekend packages, including guest airport pickups, wedding party transportation (from venue to venue), Guest shuttles, and even a Newly-Weds Getaway Car! Packages are customizable, depending on your needs.
A Lot of Love, with a Little Help:
The Big Day can be stressful to plan, especially for a destination wedding! Take the stress off your shoulders by hiring help: there’s a reason there’s an industry of professionals, these guys know what their doing. Bride Tribe Events is a full service event planning group that will do all the work for you - all you need to do is show up and enjoy!
