    I can't express how fantastic our wedding was at the Topsail Assembly Building! We wanted a venue that brought in our love for the coast along with a welcoming space to celebrate with our loved ones and dance til we dropped. Being in events myself, I knew I wanted a place with indoor/outdoor options, ample parking, a prep kitchen and areas for vendors - let me tell you, we were NOT disappointed! From start to finish, Stella responded quickly with our questions, helped us schedule venue visits, and is just an overall gem to be around. Their recommended vendors handled our day with accuracy and punctuality; our coordinator Valerie was phenomenal! Add in the incredible views no matter which direction you look, and the experience could not have more wonderful. 10/10, would party again!

    The Historical Society of Topsail Island was an excellent choice for our wedding venue. Their communication throughout the planning process was efficient and effective, making the logistics easy to coordinate. The venue itself was spacious, versatile, and had a wonderful historic charm that our guests really enjoyed exploring during the cocktail hour. We were able to utilize the museum space to allow our guests to mingle and learn more about why we chose this unique location. The views from the venue were breathtaking, and the setup inside the building made it easy to have our food and bar service seamlessly integrated into the event. We had an amazing experience using the Historical Society, and would highly recommend it to any couple looking for a beautiful, historic, and well-run wedding venue.

  • Perfect wedding!

    The Historic Society of Topsail Island was an incredible venue for our wedding. From the moment we reached out, the team was incredibly proactive, responsive, and kind in helping us plan our special day. The venue itself is beautiful, in a great location, and offered excellent value. They allowed us to set up and break down over a 3-day period, which made everything so smooth. It's hard to go wrong on Topsail, but the team at the Historic Society is so wonderful - everything was so beautiful! We would highly recommend the Historic Society for any event. Our wedding was absolutely perfect there thanks to their wonderful team and Stella!
