Lazo’s picks: wedding planners in Tampa

12 picks · read 2026-10-12

We read the website of every Tampa wedding planner listed on Lazo (134 listings, 93 sites reachable) and set aside the ones that are not really in the wedding business: beach ceremony package companies, an entertainment agency, venues and florists that also sell coordination, and a one-stop rentals network. What is left is a shortlist of vendors who say clearly what they do, show their work, and tell you how they work. Verified Lazo vendors come first. Nobody paid to be here, and this is not a ranking: Lazo ranks only on reviews from couples who booked.

Three things to ask every wedding planner in Tampa
  1. How many Tampa Bay venues have you worked this year, and what is the plan if a tropical storm hits the week of the wedding?
  2. Full planning, partial, or day-of only? Ask what each tier includes in hours and in meetings.
  3. Who is on site on the wedding day, the planner you hired or an associate?

Wedding Planners in Tampa: questions couples ask

When is wedding season in Tampa?

Peak season in Tampa runs January to April and October to December. Fall through spring is the main season; summer is hot with afternoon storms, and hurricane season runs June to November.

How far ahead should we book a wedding planner in Tampa?

Plan on 12-18 months out for a peak-season Saturday. A wedding planner can only take one wedding a day, so popular dates go first.

How much does a wedding planner cost in Tampa?

Most couples spend $800-$4,500+. Lazo does not yet hold verified booking prices for Tampa, so treat this as a national range and ask each wedding planner for their packages.

What time is sunset for an April wedding in Tampa?

Around 7:55 PM on April 15, with golden hour from about 7:23 PM. For portraits in that light, a ceremony near 5:10 PM works.

How do we get a marriage license in Florida?

Apply with the clerk of the circuit court. The fee is $86 and there is a 3-day waiting period. The license is valid for 60 days, and no witnesses are needed.
