    Great Experience

    I appreciated the quality of service provided by the Garden Club and its staff during what can be a stressful but joyous time. Amber's help throughout the process, her attentiveness to detail gave me an peace of mind during my wedding. If I'm in need of a venue in the future this will be my top choice.

    Absolutely beautiful venue

    Choosing DIGC as our wedding venue was one of the easiest choices we made, it's an absolutely beautiful place. Amber was so. helpful and responsive throughout the planning process as well. And to add to the magic, a pair of dolphins showed up in the lake on our wedding day.

    Perfect Venue we made our own!

    As soon as we saw Davis Islands Garden Club we knew it was where we wanted to get married. We loved that we could bring in our own vendors, the flexibility of having a beautiful outdoor venue, a place inside to eat, and even a large porch where we set up our dance floor. It was a perfect location close to downtown Tampa were most of our friends and family stayed. I would highly recommend DIGC to anyone looking for a venue!

    Hidden Gem!

    Davis Island Garden Club is a hidden gem and we are so glad we found it! Great location on Davis Island next to the water and has a beautiful collection of flowers and plants that made all our wedding pictures look great. If you are looking for a DIY venue, this is it! Amber was very kind giving us a tour and sending us information when needed.

    Gorgeous Venue

    This venue is stunning, the views and location are second to none. Amber is super responsive and extremely easy to work with. If you are looking for a hidden gem, with freedom to do what you’d like and amazing views, this is it. My event here was absolutely amazing. I will add photos when we get them from our photography company.

    Ashley Marchetti- Event Planner

    I had a phenomenal experience working with the DIGC for an Easter community event this year. The property is exquisite with breathtaking water views, the grounds are meticulous and the building had everything we needed and more. The event was so successful and I know the biggest reason was the beautiful and charming venue. Everyone raved over the DIGC!

    The DIGC Coordinator, Amber Beaty, was fantastic to work with. Not only is she incredibly friendly and kind, she is quick to respond, very accommodating and helpful. She made my job so easy!

    I had such an amazing experience that I’m already planning a fundraisiser at the DIGC for November. It’s my go- to, top venue preference in South Tampa. There is nothing else like it, as charming and beautiful or as pleasant to work with.

    I’ve been to several weddings at DIGC and they are stunning. Market lights at an evening DIGC event is magical. It’s a rare gem!!

    So beyond beautiful

    My husband and I loved Davis Island Garden Club so much! We didn't even get out of the car before we knew this was the place we wanted to get married. It is so naturally beautiful and truly is a clean slate. We loved it because my husband and I are not over the top people and really wanted something with a lot of natural beauty. Amber is super nice, and always responded with questions in timely manner! She was a true help especially with everything going on with the pandemic. We had an unfortunate situation happen with our wedding coordinator and had to end up setting up our wedding all by ourselves, but Amber let us get to the venue early and start setting up! Honestly I cannot say enough good things about this venue. All of our guests/family keep saying how beautiful it was! I would recommend this venue to anyone!

    The perfect DIY venue

    This venue is gorgeous for outdoor ceremonies. There’s a view of downtown from the corner of the property that is one of a kind. It’s a great value for what you get, and they guide you throughout cleanup to ensure you get your deposit back. Amber is so easy to work with, too!

    Best wedding venue in downtown Tampa!

    Davis Island Garden Club is the most beautiful venue! I had my wedding here this year and it was so perfect. The views of downtown Tampa, and the channel are perfect for the ceremony and for photos, and the inside of the building is a perfect for receptions. Amber and the whole DIGC team are such a pleasure to work with and made sure everything was perfect for my day. I 100% would recommend this venue - you won't regret it!

    Beautiful Venue

    I’ve hosted many events at the Davis Island Garden club and I must say each experience is one for the books!

    The venue is stunning and the outlook view of the water takes my breath away each time!

    Amber has always been super helpful and accommodating throughout the rental process! If you want to have a beautiful event in the Tampa Bay Area, book here!

    Beautiful DIY Venue

    We used a wedding planner (Lisa from Event Sisters LLC) who sought out every vendor, and maintained all the interactions with DIGC. I lived out of town and did not see the venue until day of, but it was absolutely beautiful and larger than it looks in the photos! Because it's a DIY venue, you can really make it your own and transform the venue to any way you like.

    Great location and venue team

    Our family and friends enjoyed the venue and everyone we worked with for our event was very responsive and helpful. I would recommend to others looking for a venue with great view, access to water activities and facing the city of Tampa.

    Amazing Service

    I had a tour with the venue director Amber who was amazing. Amber was able to answer all of my questions and eased any worries I may have had. The venue itself was beautiful. Unfortunately, the date I wanted was booked. However, I would defiantly recommend this venue to other brides.

    Great DIY venue

    The Davis Islands Garden Club is beyond gorgeous, and it helped that we lucked out and had phenomenal weather. The venue is extremely DIY, which is both amazing and intimidating at the same time. If you want to make everything custom to your vision, this is the place for you. Just be prepared that there is very little initial guidance about what works best for layouts, setup styles, etc. However, Amber was an absolute pleasure to work with the whole time, and answered all of my million questions that I asked her.

    Magical and breathtaking

    Davis Islands Garden Club was absolutely the most magical venue for our Spring wedding! Working w Amber was smooth and a pleasure. If you’re interested in a Tampa area wedding venue, then Davis Islands Garden Club is your place! Again, we can’t thank Amber Beaty enough for working with us!

    The Perfect Venue

    Davis Island Garden Club was my dream venue. It’s so beautiful there and right on the water, with views of downtown Tampa. We had the ceremony outside, along with dancing under the patio and we ate inside, so the space is both indoor and outdoor. The venue is a blank canvas but also very pretty, so you can make you vision come true there, but a lot doesn’t need to be done because the outside speaks for itself. I liked that I got to bring my own vendors in but also can use, and not made to use, their preferred vendors. Amber is also amazing! She was so great to work with and super responsive and a huge help with all of my questions. I couldn’t recommend this venue more as it’s beautiful and the staff is great. It was a great experience and would do it all over again if I could!

    Everything was amazing

    My wedding day couldn’t have been more perfect. The venue is just beautiful, the garden is the perfect setting for a ceremony and/or reception. I worked with Amber at the venue and she was very professional, responsive and helpful. She put me at ease many times when I felt like I was asking silly questions. The morning of the wedding she was outside with a leaf blower making sure everything was perfect. We received so many compliments on the wedding, all of my vendors did an amazing job. We really enjoyed being able to hire our own vendors and DIY a lot of things as well. Everything was just perfect!!!
