Tidal Marsh Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the very first interaction, Sarah and her team demonstrated a professional, timely, and organized communication style that put us at ease throughout the entire process. Their work is truly exceptional - sharp, timeless, creative, and purposeful. Sarah captured all of the little details of our special day perfectly, from the rings and invitation to the final kiss. When the rain continued to fall, Sarah's clear umbrellas became the perfect prop in some of our favorite wedding photos. I look at the photos she took every day, as they hang in our entryway for everyone to see. I am so glad we chose Tidal Marsh Photography - their talent and attention to detail made our wedding day truly unforgettable.

HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements. We'd recommend HiMotive to other couples looking for an energetic DJ.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a great experience working with Jade Events and Co. Kayla was our day of coordinator (which really was like month-of assistance plus day-of coordination). From our first conversation, she gave great guidance, was very organized and thoughtful. Even though I was pretty organized myself, I was constantly worried about missing something obvious because wedding planning was so foreign to me. She helped talk through our random questions and find solutions (including on the day). She seemed a little quiet/nervous handling some of our more bold family members but ultimately did well! Kayla also worked seamlessly with our other vendors. She was kind and overall a delight to work with!

We couldn’t be happier with Sarah’s work. We switched things up and did a one year celebration of marriage party since we got married at the courthouse. I was worried I was going to make things difficult not being an actual wedding but from the very beginning her communication was confident, clear, and easy she made us feel so comfortable! The quality of her work is truly amazing, the end result is a stunning collection of images that we will cherish forever. We highly recommend Booth Creative Co.

We’ve been using Justina as our photographer since we got engaged. I knew she was featured at the best family photographer in Wilmington, and even before kids, I loved her style so much that I knew I just had to have her! She has been capturing moments for our family for the past 4 years, and I always recommend her to everyone I talk to (although hesitantly - sometimes I selfishly want to keep her all to myself). I couldn’t imagine a better photographer for our wedding. She accommodated every single request, knew what I needed before I even knew what I wanted, and sometimes has few a secret spots up her sleeve. She had a vision that exceeded my expectations, all while capturing all of my requests - every single time. I cherish all of the sweet moments she was able to capture, including the precious time with my mother getting dressed, the first look with my husband, the tears in my eyes as we read our vows, my bridesmaids bowing their heads during prayer, my uncle choking up as he expressed how words cannot describe how much we miss my father, the pure bliss displayed by my mother-in-law as she danced with my husband, not to mention all the surprises I didn’t notice until viewing the photos - our friends on the dance floor, the kids who made funny faces during dinner, the friends who passed out on chairs because they didn’t want to miss out on the fun. I could go on and on. These things don’t happen by accident, and I wouldn’t want anyone else to capture these memories for us.

Wilmington, NC
  • Venue
  • Up to 250 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor

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. ​

Why you'll love this venue

  • Provides lighting and sound
  • Allows pets
  • All-inclusive venue packages

Venue considerations

  • Not wheelchair accessible
  • No in-house catering options
  • No on-site bridal suite
I have photographed countless weddings at Ironclad Brewery - and it is hands down one of my favorite venues to work in. The building itself is gorgeous, with tall brick walls and dangling twinkle lights (which make every reception photo SPARKLE), with two floors of space to have a large OR a small event. The location is also incredible, walking distance to all of my favorite photo locations downtown, and directly across the street from a parking deck, which does not exist for most other venues downtown. Not only is the space stunning, but the staff really makes it what it is. Rachel will help you out from the beginning of planning your wedding all the way up to the wedding day, and the bar is one of the best in Wilmington. Excellent selection as well as a fully staffed bar (actually, two) so that your guests will never have to wait in line to get their drinks. Ironclad is the BEST!
