As much as we would love to have an unlimited amount of people share our special day, we have the reserved number of seats listed on your invitation.
How far is the hotel from the airport?
The hotel is 33 minutes from Tampa International Airport, 34 minutes from St Pete/Clearwater International Airport, and 45 minutes from Sarasota/Bradenton International Airport (depending on traffic). Florida’s highways are VERY busy so please allow for extra time to get to and from your destinations.
Do I have to stay at that specific hotel?
Of course not! We want you to be comfortable! We do have a block of rooms if you prefer to stay at the Tradewinds Resort but feel free to stay where you wish!
What if attending isn’t financially feasible?
We would absolutely love to have you here to share our special day, however, we do know that attending a destination wedding is a big ask. Please know that we want you to do what is best for you and your family. If you can’t make it, we will celebrate the next time we’re able to see you!
Are the ceremony and reception at the same place?
Yes! We wanted a one stop shop where guests didn’t need to worry about transportation from one location to another that day. Plus, we hope you’ll be drinking on the dance floor with us and wanted everyone at the same place for safety reasons.
Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?
Our goal is to have a ceremony on the beach followed by an outdoor cocktail hour (weather permitting). The reception will be held indoors.
Is this a dry wedding?
Nope! 🙂 Drinks are on us as long as you’re on the dance floor! The resort does require IDs to prove you’re of age to drink. So if you plan on drinking, be sure to bring that with you!
