I can't even to begin to express how amazing Melanie and her team are at Elope Tampa Bay. With all of the hurdles my husband and I jumped through this year to get married, when we finally decided to elope, Melanie was there every step of the way to put my mind at ease and make it perfect. When we finally decided to cancel our destination wedding in Jamaica back in July, we put everything on pause...until three weeks before our wedding date (in Jamaica) when we decided to elope. I found Elope Tampa Bay by just searching Tampa elopements and everything fell into place within days. Our elopement was at Sunken Gardens, and could not have been more beautiful. Everything from the team, the flowers, the cake, the location, the photographer and the officiant were just flawless. Even with dealing with a hurricane in November and having to postpone the wedding once more two days out, the show went on without skipping a beat. All vendors were able to postpone and make it happen, which I wa... Read mores so grateful for. It was everything we wanted it to be...simple, quiet and stress free. Thank you so much for everything and I will recommend this team to everyone!

Where do I even begin? Melanie & Emily with Elope Tampa Bay made our wedding day absolutely perfect and stress free, just the way we wanted it. After postponing, cancelling, and then attempting to plan a last minute courthouse wedding in the middle of the pandemic, I stumbled across their Instagram while searching for a photographer in the area to do photos for us at the courthouse. Shortly after that, we found out our courthouse was no longer doing weddings because of Covid. Once I handed over the reigns to Melanie and Emily it was like a huge weight was lifted off of my shoulders. It didn’t take long for me to realize that they were quite literally two of the sweetest people I had ever come into contact with. They literally took care of every single thing in the weeks leading up to our wedding day and the day itself was seamless. From helping me pick a venue to having my dream bouquet made and our favorite cake to cut after the ceremony, they did all of it and were able to keep me ... Read morewithin my budget. I was feeling a little too relaxed in the week leading up to the big day and Melanie assured me it really was that easy! The communication regarding details could not have been better and they really did everything to make sure we had the wedding of our dreams despite all of then bumps in the road along the way. I would 100% absolutely recommend Elope Tampa Bay to anyone looking for an alternative to the big traditional wedding. You can have all you want and more without the headache by letting Melanie & Emily be your wedding planners!

At the beginning of this process we did not know how we were going to make our wedding a special and extraordinary day due to the current COVID-19 pandemic situation, however then Kylie mentioned that she had found a stunning wedding venue In St Petersburg as well as a wedding planner who was not only willing to but also couldn't wait to go above and beyond to create the wedding of our dreams. Our elopement was everything we could have dreamed of and more. We are so glad we chose to trust Elope Tampa Bay and also Wild Roots as it was utterly perfect! Melanie, thank you very much for organizing everything for our wedding. Your services are phenomenal and your attention to detail, professionalism and customer service is second to none. The entire process was simple, coordinated and straightforward. You made a very difficult and stressful process incredibly comfortable. You took all of our dreams and made them a reality. We could not have done anything at all without you, so thank you... Read more for making our day the most amazing day of our lives.

Our experience with Melanie and her team was absolutely amazing! It was truly better than anything I could’ve dreamed of and I can’t recommend them enough.

I was initially looking at a few different elopement/small wedding services in the area, and I am so glad that I chose Elope Tampa Bay! Our experience was top-notch from start to finish. They were so quick to respond and we were able to schedule our big day even sooner than expected! We provided a brief explanation of the type of elopement we were hoping for, and they took care of everything in a very thoughtful way. There were plenty of opportunities to customize & provide input, and it never felt like we were "compromising" by not having a big traditional wedding. I also really appreciated how they walk you through the license process and any other FAQ's so you don't have to try and figure out that stuff alone. I can't believe how smoothly and easily the whole process went throughout the planning and the day itself. It was exactly what we wanted--and stress-free to boot! I highly recommend Elope Tampa Bay!!
