LET'S BOOK YOUR
PREFERRED VENDORS

We've held so many weddings that we've learned, firsthand, who the very best of the best wedding vendors truly are across the State of Florida. When you see a vendor with The District's Preferred Vendor seal, you can be certain that they are the right people to hire for your special day. Here is our official list of preferred vendors, organized by the services they offer.
Here at The District, we do business with integrity, only giving our seal of approval to the vendors that we have worked with on the regular, who we know and trust not only to do good work at our venue but to really show up and turn out for YOU and your guests needs. We have completed multiple events with each business on this list, and we are proud to say that there is no kickback or commission involved for anyone on this list. We just truly like working together and creating magical moments for our couples!
While The District does not require you to use any specific vendor, we have learned who the best of the best vendors are. These are the people that have exceeded the expectations of couples over and over again. If you're getting married in the Tampa Bay area then these are the vendors you want to work with!

INSURANCE

INSURANCE
We require our couples to get a full event insurance policy (not just a liability policy) because it provides much more comprehensive protection from unpredictable events that couples have no control over (such as weather-related disasters and global pandemics, to name a few). For many years, there have been 4 major insurers providing these types of policies but COVID-19 was a huge test for them all and only 2 of the 4 have passed that test. Here are the top two insurers that we recommend at this time:
