My son & now daughter-in-law had their wedding here 9.14.24. It was absolutely a beautiful setting! Mike is organized and had multiple conversations with us through the entire process. It was so nice that the wedding party could stay with the Bride & Groom on site. They have thought of all the details to stock the resort with everything we might have needed. Mike & Karen were going out of the country on the day of my son’s wedding but left us in good hands with their assistants Skye & Aaron. Everything went great! This is such a beautiful setting from the long entry way to the sunset on the water.

Bakers Ranch is a team of informed wedding professionals who are experts in the unique art of weddings. Our wedding day felt like pure magic, and it is truly thanks to the incredible team at this wedding venue. Our guests were in awe of the space, and we received so many compliments regarding the décor, drinks, food, photographer and overall experience. My husband and I put a lot of time and research into finding the right wedding venue for us, and we walked away from our wedding day with a feeling of pride for our selection, and gratitude for the support we received. We looked at venues across three states. It was a little overwhelming and emotional, knowing that the venue would dictate so much of our time as an engaged couple and ultimately, our one wedding day. Bakers Ranch immediately stood out to us, it was an all-inclusive wedding venue that would eliminate some stress of planning. It had a gorgeous green backdrop of ancient oaks and rich foliage. It had Jeremy, a wedding planner that was calm, reassuring, honest and unlike any wedding professional we had met in our search. We booked the first available Saturday the following year almost immediately. I was also an extremely detail-oriented bride, straight down to the plates, the handmade table cards, and a personal note for each attendee. But it was all perfect. The decor, the flowers, the cocktails, the food, the week before, the day before, the day of, were all a dream. Everything that I communicated was heard. The vision that I had planned for was achieved. It was even better than what we could have imagined. We are extremely grateful to Baker’s Ranch for their incredible work.

Their communication was incredibly thorough, as they discussed every detail with us, even more so than our previous venue.

We cannot stop raving about the venue and staff at the Sarasota Art Museum! From the Director to the volunteers, everyone was so friendly, helpful, and hard working. This occurred from our initial consultation and fact-finding inquiries and visits. This continued through the planning and implementation process of our event! Never did I ever imagine how smooth everything would go. Laura always provided the details and clarification of anything that I may have missed or just needed additional information on and the security staff worked efficiently to make sure we were able to store necessary items in a safe location for before and after our event. Carolyn and her kitchen/catering staff with Constellations Catering Group were phenomenal! We do not say this lightly! Carolyn was super communicative and at any point and time was able to be reached quickly when needed. I have never met a friendlier more down to earth person while still making sure that the business needs are still addressed professionally and promptly. THANK YOU CAROLYN! From A to Z, the food and service were superb and on point. The Kitchen and catering staff are highly recommended. They catered to our every need and the food is the best that I have ever experienced in my 30 years of attending business and personal events. We continue to get raving compliments from our guests about the wonderful service and simply delicious food that we enjoyed during our event on 04/20/2024! Thank you again to the entire Team!

I can't say enough amazing things about Isla Del Sol YCC. I was looking for a private beach venue but what we found was so much more. Not only is the ceremony location perfect, with a private marina beach, a gazebo alter and paved walkway, but we also chose to add on a post-ceremony private sailboat ride. This unique experience gave my husband and I the opportunity to soak in the moment just the two of us, and provided the most stunning backdrop for photos. The reception space is equally perfect with 180degree views of the bay and enough room for two bars, a buffet (if you choose buffet style dinner) and dance floor large enough for your entire party to dance the night away. In addition to the location itself, IDSYCC's staff is unmatched. Melissa, the events director, was part of the reason we were so drawn to this venue. She is a master in her field. Melissa is insanely knowledgeable about all things wedding and was there every step of the way to answer all of our questions and provide support. The caring and professional nature we experienced with Melissa didn't stop there. Every single staff member from the servers, to the bartenders, and even the security guards took the best care of us on our special day. Its really amazing IDSYCC isn't just a wedding venue because they have perfected the art of creating the most amazing wedding. Oh and the food is delicious!! Book this venue...it'll be the best choice you make :)

Overall, the planning process was easy, and the team was very communicative. There were a few hiccups with booking our room block (related to the quoted rate and the site not letting guests book longer than the weekend nights), but once that was resolved most everything else was smooth sailing. The venue is stunning - our guests enjoyed the rooms and food. And even though we had to make the last minute call to move our welcome reception indoors due to the weather, the Zamora team made it happen and it ended up being great! The only things I would improve was that there was not enough shade for our morning rooftop wedding and there were issues with the audio. We knew having an August wedding in Florida would be hot, but there needs to be more shade options on the rooftop - it is such a beautiful venue and makes for stunning photos, but we were all miserably hot! The issues with audio were due to the AV guy not knowing how to hook my laptop with all my playlists up to the sound system. Frustrating but my day of coordinator stepped in and did the best she could to salvage it.

I am a Tampa Bay Event Planner that has had the pleasure of working at the Vinoy Resort with over a decade of celebrations held here! I thoroughly enjoy working at this property as they have always had a wide selection of locations to hold each event. We appreciate The Vinoy’s dedication to always offering a luxury experience for anyone hosting or attending an event at their property. They have recently brought their hotel to the next level with some incredible renovations that have exceeded my expectations in every capacity. The renovations have made this already sought after location, much more appealing. When reviewing venue options for an event, our client’s vision is always kept in mind when looking at the spaces. One of our favorite updates to the Vinoy was their ballroom renovations that now offer a cleaner look with more neutral colors becoming the base of the design. This created an atmosphere where any decor could be selected creating a cohesive look within the space, making it easier for us as well as our clients to visualize their dream day here. We believe that updates such as these are important as they keep up with the times while also providing a sustainable development for the future, with each detail they selected throughout the renovation. We look forward to many more events being held here at the beautiful Vinoy Resort, and we hope you get to experience the beauty of this property as well!

Ryan & I knew we wanted a beach wedding, but where? My husband had been to St. Pete Beach one other time for a work event, so that’s how we settled with the beach. Picking the venue seemed like a daunting task all the way from Nebraska, but once we found Tradewinds and met Hannah, their wedding coordinator, we knew instantly. We flew down one time before our wedding, so I really trusted Hannah and our planner and they knocked it out of the park. The hotel room was perfect size for my wedding party and I to get ready and with the natural light from the beautiful room views our makeup artist was in heaven! The guys spent the day enjoying an amazing lunch at the Flying Bridge, playing mini-putt and hanging out at the lobby bar while they waited. The photo backdrops you can find around the property made for magical wedding photos. Our ceremony was on the beach and the set up was perfect! The reception was in the courtyard and it was the best spot. We go visit the courtyard each time we come back to visit! The food was 10/10! I wish they had a restaurant on their property that served the same food that was served that night because we would eat there constantly! Their chef is truly so skilled! You don’t hear many people talk about wedding food, but 2 1/2 years later and our guests still rave about it; specifically the corn chowder! Yum! I really can’t thank Hannah, Tradewinds, and our planner enough. I didn’t feel an ounce of stress planning our wedding because of them. Tradewinds has really become our home away from home and it is all because of the amazing work they did for the biggest day of our life!

Hotel Alba hosted my wedding reception on 10/10/20 and we had an amazing experience. The hotel is beautiful and has a very unique design and feel. It was a great taste of Tampa for our friends and family who were visiting from out of town. Even better than the hotel itself were the office and event staff. Everyone we interacted with, from the GM to the bartenders, were helpful and accommodating. I cannot say enough nice things about the event manager, Kristina. I hired a day-of coordinator from an outside company and had a very bad experience, but Kristina went above an beyond to handle everything we needed. Kristina helped us manage reception items (gifts, party favors, signage, etc.), coordinated with vendors, and even handled some last minute meal changes we had from some of our guests. Finally, the food and food service were excellent. A few months before the wedding, the event staff coordinated a tasting with the chef for my husband and I. Chef prepared a delicious tasting and helped us make our final food and wine choices. At the reception, we received endless compliments from our guests on the filet and mahi mahi. If I was to start over right now and plan another wedding, I would go right back to Hotel Alba.

My sister and I held our parents’ joint 80th birthday party this past October 2024 at Lithia Acres. We had about 70 guests, some who came from all over the world. This venue is absolutely breathtaking with its rustic charm and beautiful trees surrounding the property. There are so many things you will LOVE about holding an event here. Once you view the property and confirm your event date, the staff has an awesome online portal to keep you stress-free and organized with any vendors you hire; to answer daily questions you may have all the way down to how you want the tables and chairs organized. In addition, they give you the freedom to design your own party by either doing your own personal decorations or hiring a party planner. There is an amazing outside area for cocktail tables and even games for the kids along with a cozy firepit. The raves we received for the simple beauty of this venue were endless. Our vendors hired were top notch and would hire them again in a heartbeat- Adam Harris with Cater Tampa. He served steak, shrimp, veggies, salad and my personal favorite, a mashed potato bar. He also created beautiful charcuterie table. The cake was from Moreno Bakery. Our DJ was with Events Done Right. Our lovely bartender was with Hook Line and Drinker. Did I have a single issue with this party? NONE! Everything went perfectly, just as planned. Honestly, I cannot say enough about how incredible nice and helpful EVERYONE at Lithia Acres was from the first day we met through end of my parents’ party. I give my highest recommendations to Lithia Acres as a perfect and unique venue for any special occasion!
