Awesome Reception

My husband and I chose The Beam Room for our reception because we were having a smaller wedding and we wanted to take advantage of the charm of downtown Wilmington. The employees were so great an accommodating they helped us figure out the meals, steak and chicken, which all my guest RAVE about and we were able to stay on a budget. They require $500 down to reserve your date and time. They were just as invested in my special day as I was. They helped my friends decorate/plan where décor would go and it was beautiful. Check out their Instagram page for the various ways you can decorate their space. You won't regret picking the Beam Room.

Great Rehearsal Dinner Space

We had our rehearsal dinner at the Beam Room. The food was so good- I could eat those brussel sprouts every day. The staff was helpful and on top of it.
They even had a projector screen for slideshows
Thank you!

Everything went as requested

Courtney and her crew did a phenomenal job in helping us organize our wedding and they were very communicable and understanding as we changed our minds quite a few times leading up to the big day. I would definitely recommend this to someone that is looking for a classy wedding, but also looking to save a little money.

We have had the privilege of setting up many of our cakes at The Beam Room over the years. Chris and his team are always on point, ready and willing to help us or answer any of our questions before and at set-up. The room is beautiful and a great place to have an event. And the food is consistently good. I know, because I was an original employee when Front Street Brewery opened in 1995, and it is still consistently good today! I highly recommend calling The Beam Room for your next event!

I have been to the Beam Room for numerous networking and wedding events and I have always had wonderful experiences. The ambiance of the room is amazing. From the exposed brick to the hardwood floors and beautiful lighting, it is noting like you have seen before. Their food and craft beers are another thing that sets the Beam Room apart, and not to mention that Ellie is amazing to work with. She is super friendly, knowledgeable and wonderful at her job. If you are looking for a private space for your next rehearsal dinner, social event, corporate party or networking event, you won't be disappointed with the Beam Room

This is an amazing space in the heart of downtown Wilmington. Not only have I worked with Ellie and her staff. I also am a customer and celebrated my wife’s surprise birthday party there. Great food, atmosphere and staff.
