About

On WeddingWire since 2014

Bakery 105 is a historic wedding and event venue located in Downtown Wilmington, NC. The building dates back to the 1920s when it was part of the American Bakeries complex (hence the name). The venue features 4,500 sq. ft. of open indoor space complimented by a 3,500 sq. ft. outdoor garden courtyard. Both indoor and outdoor spaces are handicap accessible. Bakery 105 is located steps from our bridal suite, The Cottage on Orange Street.

Services Offered
Our professional staff provides unparalleled service, bar service, flexible booking options, choice of caterers, and Day-Of Coordinating services that will ensure a memorable and stress-free experience for our clients. Bakery 105 hosts wedding events including ceremonies, receptions, rehearsal dinners, post-wedding brunches, bridal showers and engagement parties. The services offered include:

  • Choice of Caterers
  • Bar/Alcohol Service
  • Liability insurance
  • Event Staff
  • Optional Day-Of Coordinating Services

Food & Beverage
Our clients can choose from a selection of caterers to accommodate any event. (Of course, 128 South is our favorite.) Because we hold a NC ABC license, we must handle the sale and service of all alcohol on the premises. When it comes to making your cocktail selections, we offer inclusive hosted bar packages, consumption bars, and cash bar options with house and premium brands as well as mocktails, craft beers and signature drinks.

Facility
The modern Bakery 105 interior boasts exposed brick walls, wood ceilings, steel girders, and a large monitor skylight. Our venue provides a raw, unfinished space with modern amenities. The upper level of our garden courtyard is flanked by planter boxes and bench seating on either side of the central steps down into the main courtyard. The design is complete with brick pavers, creeping fig ivy, flowering foliage and crepe myrtle trees ideally suited for a ceremony, cocktail hour or al fresco dining.

The Perfect Venue for the Best Day Ever!

105 Bakery did not dissappoint! We had several meetings prior to the wedding day which were very much needed. We never felt rushed in the meetings. The wedding day was perfect. The room was decorated so beautifully. We used 105 Bakery chairs and tables which were perfect. We rented the dance floor from them as well.
The staff was professional and very effecient.
The bar was staffed well-very little wait time.
The food was amazing! Everyone came up to me and let me know how delicous the food tasted. The chef was easy to work with and was accomodating when asked to make an appetizer a main dish for example. The beef tenderloin was perfect. The roasted potatoes in duck fat were a hit. The staff was very attentive to the buffet with no wait time for food.
Clean up was fast so the dancing could get started.
I have absolutely no complaints.
They made us feel like our day was important and the best day ever!!
Thank you Katie and Staff.

Amazing x1000000!

This venue and their staff are AMAZING! I can't say enough good things about my experience - I am very "type A" and they were there for me for every detail, every question, and every idea. My wedding day was the best day of my life because of all they did and all they helped me create. I'd highly recommend their in-house catering as well. Get married here people!

The bakery is a fantastic venue with a wonderful staff to be around! what more is there to say about this rustic venue in the heart of downtown Wilmington! As a lighting designer, I couldn't hope for a better venue to work in. The brick walls to the exposed beams and plenty of power all around the room makes me a happy guy!

Absolutely GORGEOUS and unique venue in the heart of downtown Wilmington. Fits a LARGE wedding guest list and has both indoor and outdoor options. The original acid washed brick in the bakery is a photographer's dream :)
