Top Wedding Venues in Wilmington, NC

I’ve been photographing weddings in Wilmington, North Carolina, for nearly 20 years, and in that time I’ve had the chance to work at just about every wedding venue in the area—many of them more than once. Each space can be transformed in countless ways, and seeing how a couple’s design team brings their unique vision to life is one of the things that makes my job so rewarding. No matter how many times I’ve photographed at a venue, it still blows me away to see it reimagined for each wedding. I don’t like to play favorites, but I thought it would be helpful for future couples to have a resource highlighting some of the top wedding venues in Wilmington, NC. This list isn’t ranked or in any specific order—it’s simply a collection of venues where I’ve photographed beautiful celebrations over the years. Click on each venue to learn more and to see real weddings I’ve captured there. And if you’re looking for an experienced Wilmington wedding photographer who knows these venues inside and out, I’d love to be part of your day!
