Wedding Venues in Wilmington

We got married on the Whist grounds and has our reception at the Carriage House bar on the property. It was absolutely beautiful and Margaret was amazing to work with and helped us care for the details and provided excellent vendor recommendations. It was exactly what we wanted and we were so happy with the day. We appreciate Margaret and the Whist club so much!

The Chase Center exceeded every expectation I had for my wedding. Dee was always there to answer any question or concern and made any change I needed instantly. She even surprised us by adding my husband's favorite beer to the bar. The wait staff during our reception was fantastic! They were so nice and really seemed happy to be there. We got so many compliments on the food, both at cocktail hour and during the reception. I was able to truly enjoy my wedding day because of the level of service I got from the Chase Center!

Excellent services and communication. Mercedes is the best planner. From the start to finish. All the staff were super accommodating and the food was for the God's! We recommended this Hotel for any type of event.

Wonderful Venue with an absolutely awesome staff! Our wedding was everything that we imagined it would be. The Hilton staff was very clean, organized and attentive. Every request I had for the wedding whether it came to seating arrangements, ceremony timing, or extended time in the ballroom were granted without question. The planning was much easier to navigate with most of the big ticket items were included in the package. We are so grateful that we chose the Hilton & will always recommend it to newly engaged couples!

When Rick and I started planning our wedding, the venue decision came surprisingly easily. The museum already meant so much to us as artists ourselves. There was something incredibly meaningful about celebrating our marriage in a place dedicated to creativity. It felt like inviting our family and friends into a space that had already been part of our story. One of the biggest surprises was just how little the venue needed to become breathtaking. The soaring ceilings and beautiful architecture do so much of the work for you. We focused almost exclusively on lighting and florals because the museum itself is the décor. If you're using Fusco Hall, I can't recommend it enough: place your sweetheart table in front of the vestibule. The arched doors create a dramatic, timeless backdrop that looks incredible in person and even better in photographs. Speaking of photographs, this venue is an absolute dream. As a photographer, I could immediately see the possibilities. Without ever straying far from the reception, we captured an incredible variety of portraits throughout the sculpture garden, around the benches, and in the labyrinth, which offers an amazing elevated perspective. Of course, the grand staircase in East Court made for a spectacular entrance. We even had access to a conference room on the opposite side of the building from East Court, which became the perfect place for us to hide away before our grand entrance. It gave us a quiet moment together before the celebration began. One of my favorite details that often gets overlooked is the bridge spanning Fusco Hall. It made for a convenient and hidden path to our grand entrance. It's also the perfect vantage point for your photographer or videographer to capture aerial-style images/video of the reception, speeches, and packed dance floor. Those photographs became some of our favorites because they truly captured the scale and energy of the evening. The museum also shines when it comes to logistics. Having connected—but separate—spaces for cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing allowed the evening to flow naturally while giving each part of the celebration its own atmosphere. In our opinion, opening the galleries for guests is must that makes the experience feel even more elevated and unique. For couples inviting young children, the Kids' Corner was an unexpected win. The little ones loved having a dedicated space downstairs where they could play and take a break from the music whenever they needed. It allowed parents to enjoy the evening while giving the kids their own adventure. Don’t miss the nighttime photo opportunities. One of my favorite memories was gathering all of our guests along both sides of the museum's front steps while Rick and I exited the building to cheers and a sea of bubbles. Between the illuminated vestibule, the museum's stately entrance, and the excitement of everyone celebrating around us, it created one of the most magical images from our entire wedding day. Finally, saving the best for last: the staff. Kim and the entire team were so accommodating and willing to try new things. Communication ran smoothly, scheduling was a breeze, and everyone worked so well together. The exhibitions team even worked in overdrive to open Rick’s favorite gallery that happened to be closed for regular maintenance, and getting that amazing news just before the big day was so heartwarming and exciting. It’s fair to say that The Delaware Art Museum gave us far more than a beautiful venue; The place and the people became part of our story. We highly recommend!

It was such a delight to have our wedding reception at Harry’s. We’ve been going there for anniversaries for years and to start off our marriage there was a real treat. Cindy is the event coordinator and she is the BEST. She communicated quickly (especially when we took a while to respond) and was dedicated to making sure we had everything we wanted for our reception. She was so patient with us when there were some last minute changes, and she stayed to help us at the end of the reception. She is amazing at what she does and we were so blessed to have her help us with planning our reception. And don’t get us started on the food. The menu options presented at this venue are fantastic, and the option to have a tasting of options beforehand really helped us figure out how to give our wedding guests a reception meal like no other. We picked the salmon and french broil. Our guests could not stop complimenting everything! Harry's has an in-house pastry chef that made our cake and other goodies for dessert. It was also very important to us that we could accommodate our guests with a myriad of allergies and dietary restrictions. Harry's made it so easy to navigate and no change was too cumbersome. They never made us feel like we were asking too much for certain menu items to be modified. Everything was so lovely, and no one was worried that they would not be able to eat their food. We would recommend Harry’s to any couple planning their wedding. From the planning through the end of the day, Harry’s staff were kind, attentive, and personable. The staff were simultaneously dedicated to our schedule while also being flexible. They helped us plan our event and were communicative throughout the process. Day of, staff were helpful and checked in with us throughout the reception. The space held us and our 130 guests comfortably, and food was, of course, to die for. So glad we picked here!

My wedding day was April 8, 2023 at Heritage Shores Club. It was an amazing day. The attention to detail, flexibility, fair pricing, and accommodations are all fabulous. Beth is amazing. I highly recommend this venue for any event.

The most amazing day of my life! Kate knew all the questions to ask and helped us stay organized. She was extremely attentive during my wedding.

My husband and I got married last weekend at the Ocean Pines Yacht Club and it was definitely the wedding of our dreams. The event coordinator Carrie was always quick to respond when we had questions during the planning process, and all of their staff went above and beyond our big day to make it run as smoothly as possible. We had numerous guests tell us the food was the best wedding food they had ever had! The bartenders and serving staff were so helpful and kind throughout the whole night. I couldn’t recommended this venue enough!
