St. Petersburg Woman's Club

Wedding Day

Fall

We are so excited to celebrate our special day with you all! We chose St. Pete as the perfect place to say I do, as it fits the Florida vibes we've envisioned, with beautiful waterfront views, palm trees, and the Sunshine State charm we both love. We can’t wait to see you there!&nbsp;

Our Wedding

Weekend Schedule

Friday Night Welcome 

We’re kicking off the weekend in true St. Pete style! Join us Friday night at Pier Teaki, the lively rooftop bar at the very end of the Pier. We’ll have a few of the Teaki Huts reserved just for our group. Expect open-air views of the bay and downtown skyline and the Florida sunset as our backdrop 🌅✨ After a small family dinner, the bride and groom will join everyone to celebrate with lite bites, tropical cocktails, and good company. And don’t worry - there will be TVs in our section so you can keep an eye on the FSU game (yes, Alicia timed that perfectly 😉). Beach Drive and the Pier area is our favorite part of St. Pete, and we’re excited to spend time there with friends as the weekend begins. Whether you want to grab a drink, catch the game, or just pop in to say hi, we can’t wait to see you!

Ceremony & Reception 

Our Ceremony and Reception will both take place at the historic St. Petersburg Woman's Club. The building itself is designed in the elegant Mediterranean Revival style, a popular architectural trend in Florida during the 1920s, giving it that vintage charm. It's located in the Snell Isle neighborhood and offers beautiful waterfront views, making it the perfect backdrop for our Florida wedding!

Itinerary

What should I wear? The attire is formal. Women are encouraged to wear colorful, long dresses, while men should opt for suits or jackets (tie optional). If you need some outfit inspiration or additional guidance, please check out <a href="https://pin.it/ovSUme2AW" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">this link</a>. Our wedding theme is “Vintage Florida.”

Where should I stay? Our wedding weekend hub is the beautiful downtown St. Pete waterfront, specifically along Beach Drive – a super walkable area filled with local shops, restaurants, museums and the St. Pete Pier. It’s where we imagine most of our out-of-town guests will spend their time!We’ve secured room blocks at two hotels along Beach Drive (just minutes away from our venue, the St. Petersburg Woman’s Club). If you need to reserve a room, be sure to book using the following links for a discounted rate.&nbsp;– The Vinoy Resort &amp; Golf Club (where the Bride &amp; Groom will be!) - <a href="https://book.passkey.com/gt/220408914?gtid=71ce59193a0c72ebb5492ad839d937ee&amp;wwpath=www.theknot.com%2Fus%2Falicia-cross-and-sean-kolodziejski-sep-2025" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Booking Link</a>– Hampton Inn &amp; Suites St. Petersburg/Downtown - <a href="https://www.hilton.com/en/attend-my-event/crosskolowedding2025/?wwpath=www.theknot.com/us/alicia-cross-and-sean-kolodziejski-sep-2025&amp;WT.mc_id=zLADA0WW1XX2OLA3DA4Aff5Aff6MULTIBR7_138624670_2116208&amp;ranMID=41650&amp;ranEAID=2116208&amp;ranSiteID=TnL5HPStwNw-HgjExr2wMHEbzWOHbXfeww&amp;gad_source=7&amp;dclid=CLa039qbwo0DFYecWgUdqUoChA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Booking Link</a>

What time does the ceremony start? The ceremony will begin promptly at 5:30pm. We kindly ask that you arrive early and settle in before we begin.

Are the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception outdoors? Weather permitting, our ceremony and cocktail hour will be held on the waterfront lawn of the Woman’s Club, with the reception to follow indoors. What will the reception be like? Do I need to pre-select a meal? We’re skipping the traditional sit-down dinner in favor of a more relaxed, festive vibe. There won’t be assigned seating or a set dinner time. Instead, we’ll have several food stations open throughout the night with a variety of options (all dietary needs covered). Grab a drink from the open bar, enjoy the live band, and spend the night however you want! We love hosting and throwing great parties, and our wedding is no exception. We want everyone to enjoy themselves, and for it to not feel like a tightly scheduled event. It’s going to be our best party yet!&nbsp;

How do I get to the wedding? Will there be parking? Transportation will be provided between The Vinoy Resort and the venue. The Woman’s Club offers limited parking nearby, but Rideshare is encouraged! When should I RSVP by? We kindly ask that you RSVP by August 1st. Can I bring a plus-one? We kindly ask that only those listed on your invitation attend. If a plus-one was included, you'll see their name on your envelope or RSVP details.

Q + A

For those needing accommodations, we have secured room blocks at two hotels nearby. Both options are just a short 5-minute ride from our venue!&nbsp;&nbsp;If you'd like to stay at&nbsp;either hotel, please use the links for a special discounted rate. We recommend booking as soon as possible to guarantee a room.

This is the main hotel (where the Bride &amp; Groom are staying!) which is located at the north end of Beach Drive.

Registry Details 

Your presence at our wedding is truly the greatest gift! Since our home is already stocked (seriously.. Sean’s OCD means we own every kitchen gadget known to man), we decided to put our energy into planning the ultimate dreamy honeymoon to Italy! With Alicia’s love for travel and finding hidden gems and Sean’s meticulous spreadsheets and planning, every detail is already mapped out (this shouldn't surprise anyone). So on our Honeyfund you’ll actually see the exact restaurants, cooking classes, and wine tastings we’ll be enjoying! You can help us sip spritzes on the Amalfi Coast, savor Florentine steak in Florence, or discover a tucked-away trattoria in Tuscany - all thanks to you!
