What a beautiful day celebrating the love of Chamberlain & Justin at the Brooklyn Arts Center. They truly embraced the entire campus — from a ceremony in the courtyard, cocktail hour in the Annex, reception in the church, and bourbon drinks flowing in the Bell Tower. The love surrounding them, along with the energy of their family and friends, created the perfect foundation for an unforgettable celebration. 💕

The Brooklyn Arts Center features the largest private courtyard in historic downtown Wilmington. Tucked behind the historic manse and surrounded by lush landscaping, towering crape myrtles, and a tall privacy fence, the courtyard offers a beautiful and versatile outdoor setting for weddings and events.

Our courtyard can comfortably seat a little over 200 guests for a ceremony configuration and accommodate up to 300 guests for standing receptions, cocktail hours and social gatherings. Its spacious layout, private garden atmosphere, and seamless connection to the church and Annex make it one of the most unique event spaces in the Cape Fear region. 🍃

Located in the Annex—originally the Sunday school classrooms—the 1910 Suites are now the perfect place to get ready before your big day. Complete with makeup chairs, mirrors, a coffee maker, Bluetooth speaker, and plenty of space to relax, they’ve got everything you need for getting ready, hanging out, and soaking in the excitement before saying “I do.” 💗

We’re always making upgrades to our 138-year-old property, with a big focus on our church building this year. One of those upgrades — and something most people take for granted — is HVAC. We’re incredibly grateful to have partnered with Odyssey Mechanical for doing an awesome job replacing our two 20-ton units in the church building. Their team knocked it out of the park, and we appreciate all of their hard work helping keep this historic space comfortable for everyone who walks through the doors. ❄️ ☀️
