Tampa Museum Of Art 

5.0

Tampa, FL
  • Up to 600 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,500

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!
