Airports

TPA is a super easy airport and is about a 45-minute to 1-hour drive from Lakeland depending on traffic. It is possible to take an Uber from the airport to Lakeland as well if needed.

Tampa International Airport (TPA)

MCO is also a large international airport with many flight options. It is a bit longer to drive to Lakeland from Orlando (usually between a 1-hour and 1.5-hour drive). Uber is an option, but will be more expensive than from Tampa.

Activities

Bonnet Springs Park is a 168-acre public park that opened in Lakeland a few years ago. Our wedding events will be held here, but it is also a great place to explore during the day! There are running and biking trails, lakes, playgrounds, a rooftop bar, and a children's museum.

Lake Hollingsworth is one of Lakeland's most popular lakes. It is surrounded by a 3-mile paved path perfect for walking or running.

Circle B is a nature preserve located about 15 minutes from downtown Lakeland. There are many miles of walking paths, and this is an amazing place to see some of Florida's wildlife (including lots of alligators)!
