Vinoy Renaissance St. Petersburg Resort & Golf Club
Set in the heart of St. Petersburg, Florida, the Vinoy Renaissance Resort & Golf Club is a unique one-of-a-kind venue that’s been around for 85 years. Don’t let it’s age fool you, the Vinoy is one of the premier spots in Tampa Bay to be married. The restored Mediterranean Revival resort even has a National Register of Historic Places designation. As you can see from the photos below, I have enjoyed photographing several weddings at the hotel and find that it’s exquisite details offer for beautiful photographs. I really enjoy the textures found all around, from the tiles in the hallways to the arches in the garden. These details make it fun for me as a photographer. On top of that, the addition of the Chihuly lightning fixture in the main ballroom is a visual delight!
My good friend, Jeff Klinkenberg details the history of the hotel in this story about the property. Imagine getting married in a hotel where Babe Ruth stayed and where Calvin Coolidge rested his head.
