Historic Wedding Venues in Wilmington

128 South was the venue of our dreams! The level of care, attention to detail and professionalism was unmatched. This was seriously the best day ever and that was thanks to 128! HIGHLY recommend!!

Little Drum Landing is the best waterfront venue in downtown Wilmington. The views of the Cape Fear River are unbeatable. The venue is quaint and the food was delicious. The team made the planning process so easy leading up to the big day!

From the first time I came in contact with the team at Bakery 105, I knew they had it together! They were all professional and answered all our questions in a timely manner and offered us lots of suggestions, which we really appreciate!

Let's start with the location: stunning! It's located close to downtown New Bern, so there are plenty of places for your guests to stay and a fun town for them to explore while not enjoying your wedding. One whole side of the property is right against the water for great pictures. The building itself is a fabulous, repurposed factory. The exposed brick and high ceilings are complemented beautifully by the newly updated floors, unique lighting fixtures, and a fantastic selection of furniture and decorations onsite. I loved it before I ever showed up. What really sets the Maola apart is its people, namely the manager Dylan. He was fantastic from start to finish, always happy to hear and offer ideas and prompt in his responses. The best contractor my husband and I hired for our wedding; no one helped us more. The best example I can give you is this story. On the day of my wedding, hours before the ceremony, my grandmother tripped and bumped her head when she got to The Maola. Spoiler alert: she was totally fine except for a small cut, but in the moment we needed to get her to a doctor to be sure. Dylan knew the head doctor at the local minute clinic and called him as my grandmother headed over to make sure she got cared for as fast as possible. My grandmother had to watch the ceremony online but was discharged in time to make it back for pictures after. It means so much to me that Dylan made sure she was taken care of and able to come back in time to enjoy my wedding. I cannot thank him enough. As far as I am concerned, The Maola is the best venue in the whole state and my husband and I are so glad we got married here.

St Thomas is so charming and catered to our every need! I highly recommend to anyone in the Wilmington area.

The Martinsborough was the perfect venue for our wedding reception! Our wedding was at a church downtown so it was the perfect spot just a few blocks over. There was plenty of room for everyone to have a seat while still having a sizable space for a dance floor. It was beautifully decorated and perfectly spaced out. We also had the added bonus of not having to worry about weather since it was all inside! We loved every moment spent celebrating in that special space!

We had an absolutely perfect wedding here. We had 100 guests total and so we didn't rent the Annex - it was the perfect size for us. It's a beautiful venue and the Manse across the street was perfect for the bridal party to get ready in.

We had our wedding reception here. What a beautiful building and Sue is amazing. The views were breath taking. Especially at sunset. I cannot say one bad thing that I was disappointed with.

I cannot begin to tell you how amazing Donna, Drew and their team are at Station No.2!!! From the day of walk through to the day of I Do they were absolutely amazing! The venue its self is so breathtakingly magical and we are so happy we chose this venue for our big day. Donna was so helpful through the entire process and Drew absolutely killed it with our crazy crowd at the bar! The reception area was very spacious for the vendors and our guests, the firehouse suite was the perfect place for me and my girls to get ready and the courtyard AHHHH, I will never stop raving over the beautiful courtyard! I highly recommend Station No.2 for any event, I promise they will make it nothing short of spectacular! Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU for helping me and my husband have the best day of our lives!

Super friendly & helpful at the start, kind of rude day of.
