The lush gardens and charming courtyard of the Burgwin-Wright House provide a uniquely beautiful setting for private events, such as wedding ceremonies, corporate functions, dinners and cocktail parties. Right in the middle of downtown Wilmington, this is a perfect venue for ceremonies, receptions, portraits, parties, or all of the above.

Comprised of seven distinct areas on four different levels, the gardens provide endless possibilities for staging, allowing you to create a truly one-of-a-kind event in a breathtaking yet intimate environment. The gardens create endless opportunities for stunning wedding portraits.

Outdoor lighting throughout the gardens creates an enchanted landscape after the sun goes down.

Rentals include use of the gardens, courtyard, the Florence Kidder Room, catering kitchen, and restrooms.

The gardens of the Burgwin-Wright House are ideal for small, intimate weddings for groups of 100 or less. The arched arbor in the orchard is the most popular spot for the wedding ceremony, but many other areas lend themselves to the exchanging of vows. See the photo gallery below for images of private events in the gardens.

When planning pre-wedding activities for your guests, consider treating them to a guided group tour of the circa 1770 Burgwin-Wright House. Discounted rates apply.

Wedding ceremony packages start at $800!
