The Orlo House & Ballroom

The Orlo House & Ballroom is a Tampa wedding venue housed within the historic Spafford House and ballroom in Hyde Park, just outside downtown Tampa. The venue includes a separate ballroom, an upstairs bridal suite, a notable staircase, and operates as a blank-canvas space allowing couples to bring outside vendors. The Spafford House was built in 1896, and the ballroom addition was made in 1922 when the property was sold to the Tampa Women's Club to host formal parties and dances. Located at 315 South Plant Avenue, Tampa, FL 33606, in the Hyde Park neighborhood. Couples consistently note the venue's charm, character, and history; praise the bridal suite for getting ready; highlight the flexibility to choose all vendors and stay until 1 AM; and call out specific staff members Vivian, Jen, and Shelby for attentive, responsive communication.
