We have set up 10 courtesy room blocks at Hotel Ballast Wilmington by Hilton and Courtyard by Marriott Wilmington Downtown/Historic District with special guest rates under Ritz/Abraham wedding. More information is in the travel tab of the website on how to receive discounted room rates for the wedding weekend.

Due to our venue being in downtown Wilmington, parking lots are not located directly across from the venue. However, there are available street parking, and parking lots in the local area. I will list a few available parking options below: - Paid parking lots on water street and second street -Paid parking garage on market street. We ask that you account for additional time to park and keep in mind that part of Front street is unfortunately closed off due to Riverfest.

All the food served at our wedding is gluten, soy, shellfish, and nut free. However, desserts served may contain these ingredients. You can ask 128 South any questions about this. Hour devours: white truffle deviled eggs, chili glazed meatballs, and Jamaican jerk chicken skewers. Entrees (served family style): Smoked BBQ chicken, blackened flank steak, twice baked potatoes, and asparagus in lemon butter.

We ask that our guests wear semi-formal attire. Ladies can wear a nice dress while gentlemen can wear a suit or dress shirts and pants.

We ask that you plan to arrive 30 minutes before the ceremony begins. The doors will be closed 5 minutes before the start of the ceremony and will re-open when it is time for the reception.

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received the option for a plus one on your invitation, please RSVP if they will be in attendance.

Unfortunately, we will not be able to accommodate you if you RSVP late. We will need to provide our vendors and venue exact numbers of attendance by the RSVP deadline.

The bride and groom kindly request you to enjoy the ceremony fully and not through the lens of your phone or camera. Our photographers will be capturing the moments of the ceremony.
