Marry Me Tampa Bay is the area’s most trusted wedding planning publication. We showcase local Tampa Bay/Sarasota/Lakeland weddings and the fabulous wedding pros who bring them to life.
Our mission is to feature the area’s best weddings and educate engaged couples on the importance of hiring professional wedding vendors.
At Marry Me Tampa Bay, we believe:
- It’s not enough to be another vendor listed in a crowded directory.
- Local wedding pros shouldn’t have to feel like they are a wallet first and a person last.
- Local wedding pros shouldn’t have to figure out marketing by themselves.
- Local wedding pros should be able to showcase their brand and tell their story in a meaningful, local context.
- Local wedding pros should have networking options that make sense.
By showcasing amazing local weddings across multiple social media platforms, MMTB is a powerful resource for couples planning their weddings. Because we are a local publication, we reach your ideal client, those getting married near Tampa Bay, who are looking to spend on average $45,000+ for their wedding.
We offer a geo-targeted readership base and use our online influence to create brand awareness and social proof to nearly 250,000 readers with over half a million page views each year.
“Marry Me Tampa Bay has been more than a 5-star marketing and promotional website for my historic venue, NOVA 535; they have become both mentors and friends.
Anna and her delightful team really care about us as humans and about the health of our business. They routinely go above and beyond, offering new, creative insights, methods, and services that are helpful and effective for us at NOVA.
I’ve come to rely on Anna’s wisdom and advice, helping me navigate the always-evolving world of weddings and trends and communicating and connecting with an ever-younger clientele.
If you are in the wedding business here in Tampa, St. Pete, Clearwater, and you want to be successful, then your first money spent on marketing and advertising should be with Marry Me Tampa Bay. The ROI is always way above what you spend; applied wisdom is priceless.”
-Michael Novilla, owner, NOVA 535
“I joined Marry Me Tampa Bay in hopes of meeting and networking with more wedding professionals, as well as learning about vendors that I may not have worked with.
I have already received SO much more out of being a member!
Besides what you see on their very organized and inspirational Instagram and Facebook pages, there is also so much within Marry Me Tampa Bay’s blogs, Pink Pages, and features. The way it all intertwines is very beneficial for potential clients to learn everything they can about what you offer.
Speaking of potential clients, I didn’t know we would also receive potential leads through their site! Honestly, you are missing out if you haven’t joined yet because working with Anna and Amanda is truly what every wedding professional needs! They are absolutely fantastic all-around ladies and so is the entire MMTB team! “
-Lauren Gertz, owner, MDP Events
However, we are not advertising.
Let us repeat that. We are NOT advertising.
Marry Me Tampa Bay offers wedding pros a membership with marketing, networking and social media promotion.
By becoming a member, you’ll be more than just a vendor listing on a page. You’ll have the voice of Tampa Bay weddings in your corner to rave about your weddings, promote your events, organize styled shoots, create content highlighting your business and provide you with local industry connections. Because our passion is helping our members grow, we form relationships with them to better understand how to marketing their business’ unique qualities to make them stand out from their competition.
“The benefits are phenomenal. I’ve gotten great clients and been on some of the best venue lists because of Marry Me Tampa Bay. Plus, really, really great and fun styled shoots that we get to be a part of.
The leads that we get are really quality leads and really want great vendors. Plus, the advertising is great because you actually get to market with people in the area and meet people.
It’s a good return on investment. Clients that we’ve gained through MMTB hire us for more than just “day of” and that is very beneficial.
MMTB helps us grow and learn more as a group. I love the in-person interactions with the group events. It’s a very unique group, and it’s great to network in person.
-Katy Turchich, owner, Coastal Coordinating
“The benefits of becoming a Marry Me Tampa Bay member stretch far beyond just having a landing page for your featured events. From introducing us to other vendors we’ve been wanting to work with, to setting up styled shoots, to the vital information about what couples in our area are doing and where they’re spending their money, to wedding expos, to featuring us in their IG feed and Stories…I mean the list really goes on and on.
When The Knot and Wedding Wire are nowhere to be found, MMTB comes in with local support that really matters. They care about your success. MMTB treats your success like it’s their success. The value has already been out of this world.
What people may not realize about being a MMTB member is the level of connection and support you receive. The bookings are great, absolutely, but having a company that knows all there is to know about the couples, vendors, and trends of your own local market? It’s unheard of.
And their commitment to getting your work, whatever that may be, in front of your target audience is one of the things they tirelessly do best. They are committed to you succeeding, and in a world where large companies can easily pretend they care, this company actually does.”
–Shannon Dewitt, owner, Dewit for Love Photography
