Feature Your Tampa Bay Wedding Business on Marry Me Tampa Bay!

Our History:

Marry Me Tampa Bay was created because as previous local bride-to-be, I couldn’t find a comprehensive Tampa Bay wedding planning site. I found websites that listed a slew of local vendors and venues, but it was be too overwhelming to pick which sites to visit, or know which vendors were the style I was looking for. I also visited wedding blogs for inspiration, but once I found a picture of something I liked, I was back to square 1, because now I had to find a LOCAL vendor who could recreate that image.

So I asked myself the age old question, “There has to be a better way, right?”

While a handful of local vendors had blogs, I couldn’t find a local blog showcasing various wedding vendors and venues, thus, the creation of Marry Me Tampa Bay.

How Marry Me Tampa Bay Can Help You Reach Brides:

I formed this site, with the small business owner in mind. I have worked with small businesses for over 8 years so I understand the concept of having a small marketing budget. For many vendors, it’s too expensive to be listed on some of the more national sites because you’re just one of hundreds of vendors or it’s too impersonal. I want to form a relationship with my sponsors, because your sponsorship allows me to continue promoting your business.
