Awarded Best of Zola
I'm a professional photographer in the wedding industry in Wilmington, and I've known the owner Kelly for awhile now. We have worked together before for many photo shoots, styled shoots, etc. and she is ALWAYS a dream to make a vision come to life with. And now that she owns Maven Monroe, it's even BETTER. The space itself is stunning, and the perfectly clean, white space (photographers love this) with natural light available, it's an absolute pleasure to work in. And I LOVE that there's even TWO getting ready spaces on the property, and soon-to-be a back patio, too!! Don't hesitate to book Maven Monroe not only for the stunning venue, but also for the joy of working with Kelly. She will make alllllllll your dreams come true.

The venue itself was big, spacious, and beautifully maintained. Everything was clean, neat, and exactly what we needed for our special day. Although they offered to help with setup and cleanup, we ended up doing it ourselves, and they made sure we never needed anything or ran out of anything. It was a truly beautiful wedding, and we loved the venue so much that we plan to use it for many more functions in the future.
