Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of art at the Tampa Museum of Art, a true gem nestled along the scenic Hillsborough River. This waterfront venue, with its striking ultra-modern architecture, offers a breathtaking panorama of both the glistening waterway and the bustling downtown skyline.

The Tampa Museum of Art was our top venue choice for our February wedding. We wanted something that offered an indoor/outdoor experience, was elegant, and that we could customize to fit our exact vision. Our guests were blown away by the venue from the moment they arrived at the cocktail hour in the atrium to dinner and dancing under the covered outdoor area. The architecture of the museum plus the backdrop of downtown Tampa made for beautiful pictures. The TMA staff were so wonderful to work with and made our vision come to life. Wish we could do it 100x again!

Communication to me was NEVER an issue. Between the emails, phone calls, and in person meetings, the team at Paradise Cove was always on top of it. I can't describe how perfect this venue is in just a paragraph - every guest came up to me and said what a "hidden gem" and "an old Florida oasis". As silly as it sounds, they even reminded me to eat, and were so organized and in sync with the vendors. From the moment we first toured the venue, to the constant emailing, to finally our wedding weekend, the team at Paradise Cove made everything run so smoothly and truly made our dream a reality.

Literally my favorite place on Earth! I got married here in February of 2023. I book it the spring before (maybe April) so I had about 10 mos of wedding planning. During that time, I had countless conversations about literally everything with the fabulous Carmen and about 3 or 4 visits to the venue not including the initial tour for various parts of planning. From the moment we toured the venue, we knew it was THE ONE. Every single inch of the property is just stunning inside and out. Carmen was beyond sweet, knowledgeable, caring, helpful and fun! She danced at my wedding and I even have pictures of her and her husband in the photo booth. Speaking of her hubby, Mike is super awesome as well! The day of my wedding he checked on me to see if there was anything I needed and to see how I was doing. Every time I visited the venue he was hard at work making things more and more perfect. Any time I needed guidance or talked off a ledge, Carmen had a solution. I had a fantastic wedding planner but Carmen was the real MVP. Fast forward to my wedding weekend.. I got married on a Sunday but I stayed the night before and the night of in one of the super adorable cabins on the property (I wish I was still there). It was just absolutely peaceful and the perfect way to spend my weekend. I woke up my wedding morning and had a great massage in a beautiful setting then had the best day of my life. Everyone at Casani worked really hard and made sure everything was perfect and went off without a hitch. We were taken great care of starting with wine and charcuterie and then sent away with two Casani toasting glasses as a keepsake as well as a million wonderful memories and two new family members. We love Carmen, Mike and Casani so much that 1. we waited in line to see them at a wedding expo even though we already had them booked, 2. I keep trying to get a job there so I can hang out there with them literally all the time lol and 3. I'm trying to come up with an annual event excuse just so I can go back and do this all over again. If you are thinking of going for a tour or booking an event DO IT (and invite me)!!!! You will not regret it. I relive that weekend over and over every single day. This is not a paid endorsement, I'm just really that obsessed. I will take payment in quality time at Casani however haha!
