  • We chose a simplified theme highlighting the venue architecture at Whitehurst Gallery. We focused on natural and earthy colors, choosing ivory to match the venue and accenting it with earth-tone greens and black to create an elegant feel while highlighting our affinity for plants and greenery.

  • I wanted something colorful and casual that represents our personalities. Our theme was boho tropical. I adore fresh flowers and bright colors, and life is too short to live without vibrant colors and joy. Our colors were deep blues, greens, golds, and natural colors brought in with the art and florals.

  • “We wanted something small and meaningful, with just our closest family and friends—about 45 people. We were looking for a space that felt intimate but still beautiful, and Whitehurst Gallery was perfect. I first saw Whitehurst Gallery in photos in Marry Me Tampa Bay and instantly fell in love. The space is stunning—the library and its beautiful ceiling, and the outdoor columns—create an elegant, timeless feel.

    Whitehurst was so accommodating and kind, which made the day even more special. Their service was just as impressive; the team’s kindness and attention to detail made everything seamless. I’d recommend Whitehurst Gallery to any couple looking for a chic, intimate setting for their wedding.”

  • “We were looking for a venue that was both unique and intimate, somewhere that would reflect our personal style and create a meaningful atmosphere for our closest family and friends. It was important to us to find a place that felt personal, with a sense of warmth and character that would make our celebration truly unforgettable.

    From the moment we saw it, we fell in love with Whitehurst Gallery’s charm, clean aesthetic, and first-class service. We can’t recommend Whitehurst Gallery enough. It was an absolutely remarkable experience. Griffeth and his team were the epitome of professionalism—always helpful, accommodating, and attentive to every detail.”

  • “We love Europe, so in looking for our venue, the architecture and simplicity of the building were important. The venue does not need much because it speaks for itself and its history.

    We specifically chose Whitehurst Gallery because of its beautiful architecture. The vehicles available through Whitehurst were a plus because Biko loves classic vehicles. The library and chandeliers appealed to me because I love Beauty & The Beast. The team was amazing from beginning to end and beyond. They followed up, sent pictures, and were just a pleasant and spectacular team to work with.”

  • When choosing our wedding venue, we wanted a place that reflected our minimalistic yet elegant style while also allowing us to incorporate worship and praise seamlessly. It was important for the space to feel intimate and inviting, with enough room for our guests to enjoy the experience comfortably. We also looked for a venue that could accommodate our butler-served dining, a beautiful bar setup, and live music, including our DJ and violinist. Most importantly, we wanted a space where we could honor God and create a meaningful atmosphere for our ceremony and celebration.

    We chose Whitehurst Gallery because it perfectly aligned with our vision. The space was beautiful and provided the perfect atmosphere for both worship and celebration. Their service was second to none—everything was handled with such professionalism and care. The communication was amazing from start to finish, making the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. We truly felt valued and supported, and we couldn’t have asked for a better venue for our special day!

  • We wanted a wow factor for our guests, but we also wanted it to feel inviting, warm, and unique. We wanted the option to be indoor or outdoor in case of bad weather, and we didn’t want it to be too far from our home.

    We have always loved Tarpon Springs and downtown Dunedin, so when Whitehurst Gallery was an option for our venue, we knew we were more than likely going to fall in love. The moment we saw it, both John and I were stunned by how gorgeous it was. What sealed our decision was when we did a walk-through with Griffeth Whitehurst, and we saw how much love and intent was put into creating this gorgeous space. Every piece of art, every book in the library, and every chandelier had a story.

    There was so much love, creativity, and hard work that was put into creating the Whitehurst, and we knew it was the perfect place for us to gather our families to celebrate our marriage.

    After we left the walk-through, I cried because I knew we’d finally found what we never knew we were looking for.
