128 South is located in historic downtown Wilmington, North Carolina on the banks of the Cape Fear River. We offer a unique venue and reception space for your event. 128 South is located in the historic VonKampen Building and features one of the last great examples of a Victorian façade including the original stained glass windows. Some features include exposed heart-of-pine beams, hardwood floors throughout, and enormous bay windows with views of South Front Street.

The stunning white brick exterior is complemented by the fragrant jasmine that envelops the unique entrance, setting the stage for a tranquil + inviting atmosphere. As you step through the original famous haint blue double doors, the venue welcomes you with an elegant all white interior. The open-floor plan provides a versatile canvas for you to personalize with your own décor + color schemes. Tall ceilings, flowing curtains, and herringbone flooring effortlessly blends together to create a romantic atmosphere. To top it all off we recently finished our outdoor courtyard The Mimosa Yard! The Mimosa Yard is a real-life fairytale setting, beckoning you and your loved ones to dance, laugh, and make unforgettable memories beneath the twinkling stars. ​​ Our venue is thoughtfully designed to create an intimate + romantic setting, comfortably accommodating up to 100 guests.

Saint Thomas was the first Catholic church in Wilmington, built in 1847. Although no longer a church, this beautifully-restored venue in the heart of historic downtown Wilmington is listed on the National Historic Register. Our exposed brick walls, gorgeous stained glass windows, high ceilings and upper balcony make Saint Thomas a perfect backdrop for your wedding.

We are a casual venue where you will always feel welcome whether it is your 1st visit or your 101st and whether you are a craft beer expert or someone who wants to come and spend time around good beer and good people. We are dog friendly, so you can bring your furry family along with you too! Our venue has a large indoor space and a cozy outdoor patio which is a great place to hang out with friends and drink awesome beer. We also hold a number of events such as outdoor music, vendor markets and festivals. Want to rent the space out for a private party ? We can do that too, see our event rental page.

Pave' is downtown Wilmington's newest event space. We are conveniently located on the ground floor on Water Street (near Chandler's Warf)...just steps away from the River Walk and the Cape Fear River. We book it out from 9-4 or 5-10pm. We are going GREEN and not meaning just adding plants (but yes, more plants the better). No more wasting water washing linen/dishes. Our plates/flatware/cups are biodegradable (we do offer an eclectic mix of real wine/champagne glasses). No more 6 foot banquet tables. This venue is meant for social gatherings. Pave' is cocktail style so lounge if you like on the couch, hop up on a bar stool or stand and mix/mingle. We offer all the rentals. There is only one bathroom at Pave' so that keeps our numbers comfortably in the 25-35 range. This is the vision for Pave'. I have done traditional venues in the past but I thought it was time to mix things up a bit. Hope you like it. 910.297.6526 eventsatpave@gmail.com www.eventsatpave.com
