Just a 2 minute walk from the venue is a laid-back brewery with a great selection of craft beers—our favorite courtyard to enjoy pizza, delicious drinks, and good company.
Our favorite rooftop bar—sip cocktails with stunning views of downtown Wilmington and the Riverwalk from this lively, open-air spot.
A beautiful spot filled with blooming gardens, oak trees, and walking trails—this is where we got engaged, so it holds a special place in our hearts!
