As a uniquely designed garden oasis, Carolina Home and Garden offers indoor and outdoor space for up to 250 guests. A retail garden shop and boutique by day, transforms into a magical venue and gathering place at night. Their Tropical Sunroom event room is exquisite to say the least! Antique Chandeliers hang all throughout the room. French doors and windows surround the space, giving it your “greenhouse” feel. Vines trail from almost every window! Beautiful mature Birds of Paradise are planted in the ground inside the space.

The Green House welcomes you to host elopements, weddings, and rehearsal dinners in our sustainability-focused and elegant space. From our menus crafted with locally-grown ingredients (including fresh produce from our green house), natural beer and wine selection, and a variety of cocktail and mocktail selections, we are passionate about creating lifelong memories with you in our beautiful naturally-lit space. Like our couples who work with us, no two weddings are alike, so we strive to make sure all the details are taken care of to your specifications for your special day. Our passion for sustainability brings our couples together with peace of mind: knowing that their wedding day will leave a more positive impact on the planet than through many other traditional event venues.

Since 2015, our brewery has been the perfect backdrop for hundreds of events including weddings, charity events, corporate functions, business networking and social celebrations! Ironclad Brewery is located in an historic building dating back to 1925 in Downtown Wilmington. The building was completely renovated in 2014, but we've maintained much of the character and integrity of the original building. Our brewers hand forge a wide range of craft beer and hard seltzers, using only the best ingredients available. In addition to our craft beer and seltzer creations, we also serve cider, wine, and spirits. ​
