Where is your wedding?
Destination is Wilmington, NC! Our venue is Wrightsville Manor, 5 minutes away from Wrightsville Beach. We chose Wilmington due to Greers grandparents having resided there for 25+ years, and Laura’s love for the beach and ocean after growing up on the water in MA. It holds a special place in both of their hearts!
What’s the easiest way to get to Wilmington (by land, by sea, by air?)
You can fly directly into Wilmington International Airport that has multiple flights from various North East and Midwest cities. You can also fly into Raleigh, NC (Greer’s home town!) and then rent a car and drive the 2 hours down to Wilmington. There will be parking at the hotel and venue for those that wish to or are able to drive from their location.
Will your wedding be indoors or outdoors?
The wedding will be outdoors at Wrightsville Manor. For inclement weather, the ceremony will be moved inside of the reception hall.
Have you reserved a hotel block for the wedding?
Yes! We have a room block with Hampton Inn & Suites Wilmington/ Wrightsville Beach, which is a 9 minute walk from our venue, Wrightsville Manor. The link to access the hotel block is under the Travel section of our website.
Will there be a shuttle to and from the venue to the hotel?
Yes! For those who chose not to walk- we will have a trolley back and forth from the venue to the hotel on the day of our wedding.
What is the dress code?
Dress to impress in semi- formal/ cocktail attire. Other than that, dress in whatever makes you feel most comfortable. What a great reason to dress up and feel fancy for a night!
What is the weather like in the area?
Late April in North Carolina varies from a high of 76-85 degrees , and a low of 58-69 degrees. We are hoping for a beautiful beach weekend with little humidity- but just incase, bring something warm for when the temperature dips at night.
What type of food will be served at your wedding?
We'll be serving hors d'oeuvres at cocktail hour followed by a sit-down dinner that will be family style! We will have plenty of options for both meat eaters and vegetarians alike. However, if you have any specific allergies and or other dietary restrictions that we should be aware of, please reach out to us directly.
Am I allowed to bring my children?
While we love your little ones, our wedding is going to be an adults-only event so that everyone can relax and enjoy the evening. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us!
Is there parking on site?
Yes! Plenty of parking available at our venue, but we will also provide transportation via trolley from the hotel to our venue and back at the end of the night.
Anything else we need to know?
That's it! Unless you have any specific questions, please feel free to always reach out to Greer and Laura directly :)
