This historic venue offers private indoor and outdoor areas, wrap around windows with breathtaking water views, hardwood floors, and original brick walls. With 3 unique versatile venues to choose from for our St. Augustine wedding and rehearsal dinner we have chosen the elegant White Room Loft & Rooftop. All food is prepared in house by executive chefs and is served oven to table within moments – a key difference with this venue and every foodie would agree! We can’t wait for them to host one of the most memorable day’s of our lives!

Built in 1888, the 1 King Street building housed The Surprise Store, the largest and leading department store on Florida’s East Coast. In 1936, it became the Plaza Hotel and from 1949 to 1986, it was also the home of Potter’s Wax Museum. Today the building is a National Historic landmark. The original rooftop for gatherings and sunbathing at the Plaza Hotel is where The White Room Ballroom is today. During the 2006 remodel of The Ballroom, the original brick walls were discovered behind plaster. When the third floor was renovated in 2008, which is now The Whiteroom’s Loft and Rooftop, the original brick walls were again exposed and the Hart Pine floors were refurbished bringing this unique part of the building back to its 1888 grandeur.

Last year The White Room donated a cocktail hour on the rooftop, a four course dinner, silent auction and live entertainment; all complementary raising over $155,000 to be donated directly to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

This year they’ve added Alpha Omega Miracle home to their donation list. They provide housing, counseling, and education for the new faces of homelessness – single mothers, their children, and seniors. In 2014, they provided 10,500 safe bed nights to homeless mothers and seniors. It truly is a great cause local to St. Augustine.

Additionally, The White Room fulfills Christmas Lists for the children living at St. Augustine’s Homeless Coalition. They have so much fun shopping for the boys and girls and wrapping them in festive holiday paper. Giving these children a Magical Christmas is what the Holiday Season is all about.

Also, at the beginning of every school year, The White Room, purchases brand new book bags for local school children.

The White Room has committed to donating $25,000 to the St Johns County Council on Aging, helping to maintain programs and services for the elders in the community.
