Tampa Garden Club - Tampa, Florida

Stephanie

The Tampa Garden club is such a Tampa gem! My husband and I had our wedding reception here 27 years ago. It was magical! So when our daughter announced her engagement to her high school sweetheart we immediately thought of the Garden Club. They were married and had their reception at this perfect location on New Years Eve 2024. Staff was extremely helpful through the planning process. On the wedding day, Lana was extremely helpful even though it was to be a late night ringing in 2025! The wedding and reception was perfect! We still have 2 children left to get married… hopefully we will see you again in the future.

Tampa Garden Club it was an absolute gem of a find. The gardens. Wow! They're like something out of a fairytale – beautifully manicured and bursting with beautiful colors. From vibrant blooms to lush greenery, every corner offers a new opportunity for stunning shots. It's clear that the folks at the Tampa Garden Club take immense pride in keeping their gardens in top-notch condition, and it truly shows.

Situated right across from Bayshore Boulevard, the Tampa Garden Club offers the perfect backdrop for portraits.

One of the standout features is the layout of the venue, where everything seems to be perfectly placed within arm's reach. This not only streamlines your workflow but also allows you to effortlessly capture every moment, ensuring no detail is overlooked.

Highly recommend!

I rented the space for my Mom's Celebration of Life, and it was a fantastic venue for it. It went beautifully, and they had everything set up exactly as discussed before the vendors arrived. Bridgette was very helpful, and did a lot of work in the background to help me get everything put together in only a month. In the scheme of nice venues, the price tag was quite reasonable. I'd consider it for another event.

We hosted our wedding at the Tampa Garden Club and it was an amazing day! We had both our ceremony and reception here, and Bridget and the staff were able to accommodate everything. I absolutely loved the clean slate this venue provides for a bride and groom to get creative with how they want the space to look. Both the inside and outside space lended themselves perfectly for all of our 150 guests. It was the most beautiful day ever!

We had our wedding at TGC and it was so perfect! I wanted something more unique than a ballroom and their floor to ceiling windows created this with views of the garden, Tampa bay, and even a gorgeous sunset. We had our cocktail hour and reception here, all indoors to not worry about FL heat/rain. Their staff was very helpful and we loved that there was a stage for our DJ/musicians and photo booth to not take up tables/dance floor space. We also utilized the foyer with a TV to play a video my sister made for the event for guests to see. You can utilize minimal decor with this venue and still have a beautiful event!

This venue was perfect for our wedding in every way! From tour day to wedding day, Bridget was so friendly and personable, and knowledgeable and efficient. When we made multiple appointments in the building with our decorators, Bridget was always happy to be on hand to answer questions while being so patient with all of our questions and letting us take our time to visualize; she also had great recommendations for various vendors. The building itself is a beautiful canvas with which we made our vision come to life, and the outdoor areas and view of the bay were gorgeous for photos too. We didn't want to deal with weather possibilities (Florida being renowned for heat and/or sudden rain), so we planned from the start to have the ceremony in the Conservatory room, which still gave us a stunning view of the lovely garden just outside the window wall while keeping our guests comfortable. Both the Conservatory and main Banquet Hall spaces were more than plenty for our 80-guest event with plenty of room to spare, the high ceilings gave us a space that felt open and uncramped, and neutral colors throughout made it very easy to adapt the space to our colors and theme. Logistically, the vendor load-in is very convenient for them, guest parking is plenteous and easy, and all of the facilities are well-maintained and clean. The rental price was very reasonable for our budget, and we got top-notch service from Bridget through the booking and lead-up, as well as from Beth on the day of the event.
On the day we toured, my then-fiancé and I immediately fell in love with this venue; we stopped looking at other places and never looked back, and we could not have been happier with this choice. Thank you to Bridget, Beth, and everyone at Tampa Garden Club!

When we were in between appointments to look at venues for our upcoming wedding, my then-fiance and I decided to swing by the Tampa Garden Club for a quick look. As an event was about to start being wet up, Wanda gave us an expedited tour and answered our questions. That was all we needed -- we were in love (again). It's a beautiful space that can accommodate a lot of people at a great price for those on a budget, so we booked it shortly after.

As we got closer to the big day, I was able to reach out to Wanda with anything that came up, and she was a wonderful resource. She was so quick to respond to emails and was obviously looking out to make sure everything was done in our best interests. She understood we were doing a lot of DIY projects and really came through for us to make sure everything went off without a hitch! Even on the day of our wedding, at the end of July, she stopped by and brought my bridesmaids and I a fan to help keep us cool while we got ready!

Our wedding was beautiful, and we loved that we were able to have such a lovely space while still working with the vendors that we wanted to. All of our guests commented on how gorgeous it was. We would definitely recommend the space to anyone looking for a Tampa area venue that has it all!

Tampa Garden Club is perfect for a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception right on Bayshore Blvd. As a wedding planner for Cherished Ceremonies we have arranged weddings here and really enjoyed the location and atmosphere with the large windows overlooking the water
