We did the rooftop venue & it was absolutely beautiful. Giselle & Allen assisted us and made the final details very easy. People seemed to enjoy the food & had a wonderful time. Only negatives were that the bartenders had a tip jar which we were assured they wouldn't, but when we brought it to their attention it was put away. Also, my cake topper was never added

Stunning rooftop with a view and an excellent location in St. Augustine. Walkable area directly next to shops, sightseeing, and restaurants. Great spot for a sunset wedding or any event, and the staff were beyond amazing.

As a wedding vendor who frequents The White Room, I have to say they are top of the line. When a bride tells me they are holding their wedding at this beautiful venue, I immediately tell them they are in great hands. Organized and timely with the friendliest most helpful staff, this venue is a gem of a location in Saint Augustine.
