Wedding Venues in Tampa

I had the most amazing stay at this Airbnb for my bachelorette weekend in Florida! The space was beautiful, spotless, and perfectly decorated — it made the celebration feel extra special. The location was ideal, close to all the fun spots but still peaceful and private. Our host was incredibly responsive and made sure we had everything we needed for a smooth and enjoyable stay. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate such a memorable occasion with my friends. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a stylish, comfortable, and welcoming home away from home!

Our wedding at The Birchwood was absolutely unforgettable. The venue itself is stunning — elegant yet warm — and created the perfect atmosphere for our celebration. The canopy cocktail hour was a highlight, with guests raving about the setting and the amazing food. Every detail, from dinner to décor, was handled beautifully. The staff were incredibly professional and kind, making everything seamless and ensuring our day was truly perfect.

We had an amazing experience working with Beachside Hospitality Events. Shawn and her team provided exceptional customer service from start to finish. Communication was clear, prompt, and professional throughout the entire process. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. It’s rare to find a vendor that combines professionalism with such genuine care for their clients. We’re truly grateful for their dedication and highly recommend Beachside Hospitality Events to anyone looking for reliable and outstanding service.

If you are considering getting married at Bellwether, read this story!! After staying in the beautifully renovated hotel several times before, my husband and I decided to get married here on 10/12/24. It also has special meaning for me, as I celebrated my First Communion in the Bird's Nest when it was still a Howard Johnson. From the moment we met Amalfi Lopez, Wedding Coordinator extraordinaire, we knew we had found the perfect place for our big day! Throughout the planning process, Amalfi was a constant source of support, always guiding me with patience and care. Then, just two weeks before the wedding, Hurricane Helene hit Florida. As the storm passed, Amalfi kept me updated on the status of Bellwether, but when she finally gained access to the property, she broke the news that it couldn’t be repaired in time for our wedding. I was devastated, but Amalfi stayed on the phone with me, comforting me (she handled my ugly sobbing like a pro) and assuring me that we’d figure something out. At that point, I honestly thought we wouldn’t be able to get married after all the planning. But two hours later, Amalfi called again with good news. The Bellwether team had decided to help us find a new venue and honor our original contract—even though the new venues were significantly more expensive. We toured the new options, and Amalfi was with us every step of the way. She helped me shift my mindset, hugged me when I felt overwhelmed, and supported me through every decision. In the end, we decided to move the wedding to Hotel Flor in Downtown Tampa, which meant completely re-planning the event in just two weeks. Our guests’ reservations were transferred, we chose new menus without a tasting, and all the wedding decor we had picked out for Bellwether was ruined. But Amalfi and Jenny at Hotel Flor went above and beyond to secure alternatives and make it all work. Then, just a week before the wedding, Hurricane Milton started threatening Florida. By the Wednesday before our wedding, it hit, causing widespread power outages in Downtown Tampa and surrounding areas. But somehow, Hotel Flor was one of the few places with power, so we made the decision to move forward with the wedding. Even though many of our guests were dealing with power outages and uncertainty, we went for it. On Friday, Amalfi showed up for the rehearsal after days without power, determined to make our wedding happen. And on Saturday, she became my day-of coordinator, ensuring everything ran smoothly behind the scenes. I can honestly say that without Amalfi’s help, our wedding would not have been as beautiful or memorable as it was. I’ll be forever grateful to Amalfi and the Bellwether team for making our wedding happen, despite two massive hurricanes. It’s a day we’ll never forget! We plan to come stay with you for our 1st Anniversary and would love to meet some of the people who made this possible. Amalfi, prepare for tears and hugs at our reunion!

Perfect family friendly beach resort for our destination wedding! Something to do for almost anyone.

As I've grown up going to AMI every summer, it's been my dream to have my wedding at The Sandbar. My dream finally came true and it did not disappoint. The Sandbar team was incredible - they truly understood my vision, were attentive to my requests/questions, and overall really cared about my experience. The wedding was everything I dreamed of and more - the food, incredible, the decorations, also incredible, and the team, the absolute best. Haley was my day-of coordinator and she was by my side every step of the way, making the day seamless and fun. I can't recommend this team and place enough. Thank you so so much for the perfect day!
