The Florida Aquarium
Wedding venue in Tampa, Florida




About The Florida Aquarium
The Florida Aquarium offers indoor and outdoor settings for wedding ceremonies and receptions in downtown Tampa. Couples can exchange vows in front of the Coral Reefs habitat or use the Tampa skyline as a backdrop. Event spaces include the Wetlands dome, Coral Reefs gallery, main lobby, dining areas, and Bayview Rooftop Terrace. The Wetlands dome features a mangrove forest tunnel and free-flying birds; the Coral Reefs gallery has a floor-to-ceiling view of its aquatic habitat; and the rooftop terrace is a solar-panel-covered pavilion with views of downtown Tampa and Tampa Bay. Planning professionals work with couples on events, and optional wedding enhancements include underwater bubbles, diver interactions, and an evening Wetlands experience.
