We are not religious, so we won't be using a church and are left just looking for a nice place for our ceremony. I'd prefer something historic as they usually are beautiful on their own, but I can't seem to find any nice places that really fit that.
We've thought of the Tampa Theater, but I've had two friends get married in similar stage/theater settings and I didn't like the disconnected feeling from the guests that you have by getting married on a stage.
Anyone know of any great Tampa/St. Petersburg venues for a ceremony? Even if its outside in an orange grove, I just want the atmosphere to be pretty on its own.
It will be around 100 people, we aren't done making the list yet, and we are on a bit of a budget, so no places that charge $5,000 unless you can have the reception there too.
