Laura Married on 08/08/2021The BEST Wedding Venue in St. Pete FL
We had our wedding on 08/08/2021 and it was more than we could have EVER imagined! I researched SO MANY venues prior to reaching out to Red Mesa and I have to say, Leigh was hands down the best event coordinator I have spoken to. She not only took the time to offer me many options within our budget, she was always willing to talk to me on the phone to go over any of my questions and concerns. She was professional, fun, and such a dream to work with. When I told her my vision for the venue she took that vision and amplified it 10000X. We were looking to do tons of greenery and romantic candles and when I say she blew me out of the water with her décor, I was BLOWN AWAY. Not to mention the food was absolutely INSANE. This is not your typical wedding food, from the salad to the chicken and steak, down to the drinks - everything was absolutely incredible. Leigh and her team truly made this the most special day of our lives and we couldn’t be more thankful to them for all they did. As an added bonus, this space is incredible with the exposed brick and the gorgeous rooftop overlooking St. Pete. Our guests are still raving about how beautiful the wedding was and how good the food was!! I HIGHLY recommend you check out Red Mesa for your next event!-

Debbie M. Married on 06/24/2022Rehearsal Dinner Venue
We had my son and daughter-in-law's rehearsal dinner and welcome reception here. It met and exceeded all our expectations. We worked with Leigh and Jessie. They were responsive, flexible, and organized. I was planning this event from out of town and could not have been happier with the way it turned out. Jessie gave me tips for where to get flowers. I picked out a color theme and she made the two spaces we were using look great. The food, drinks and service on the day of the event were outstanding. I would highly recommend Red Mesa! -

The best venue in this world
Im not even joking. PLEASE get married here!!! Since the first day my now husband and I came to see the venue we fell in love. EVERYONE is so nice and helpful, they treat you like family.
The followups were amazing, I had an idea of how I even wanted everything and they took that and made it a thousand times better. Ashley and Leigh will hold your hand through the process, make everything stress free and make your wedding a dream come true!
Food is amazing, we had a taco bar and half the guests were Mexican, they all were impressed of the quality and taste of it all.
Desserts are a MUST and the house margaritas... OMG! I wish I could get married there every day just to be around the amazing people that work there, eat their delicious food and just have the day of my dreams over and over again!
Thank you so so so much Red Mesa, forever grateful. -
