Beautiful venue! Off the beaten path in iconic Wilmington, North Carolina, this location is a hidden treasure! Appears to be a remodeled church, but the architecture is historic. Perfect size for a medium sized wedding, with seating on the main floor and the balcony. Also has a separate room that was utilized for cocktail hour as the staff transitioned the "chapel" into the reception room. Parking is sparse, so prepare your guests. The staff was friendly and helpful as well!

We couldn't be happier with our decision to get married at the Brooklyn Arts Center. The minute we toured the venue, we fell in love with its charm and architecture! Not only is the venue stunning, but the staff is unparalleled. Every single person we worked with from BAC was welcoming, kind, and helpful. We could not have imagined a more perfect place to get married!We got ready in the Manse Suite which has every amenity to make getting ready on your big day perfect. We also stayed in Ms. Cat's Cottage after. It is beautifully decorated, incredibly convenient, and so comfortable. Highly recommend BAC for your big day!

We had a wonderful experience working with a Brooklyn Arts Center to host our wedding in June of this year. We absolutely loved some of the special add-ons that really made the day especially memorable, like the bourbon bar, and the Manse where we were able to get ready and sip on mimosas in preparation for the big day. my husband’s family and groomsmen got ready in the cottage next-door, which was conveniently located to be able to store any gifts, extra food and desserts, etc. The team at Brooklyn Arts Center were so supportive and accommodating throughout the entire process, and we really felt like they cared about providing a excellent service. I highly recommend this venue, go check it out because the space is awesome!

The Brooklyn Arts Center is seriously one of a kind wedding venue. I fell in love with the venue immediately after touring it because of the historic feel and how beautifully they preserved the entire space. There are so many unique picture spots and our photos turned out stunning thanks to all the exposed brick, gorgeous picture window upstairs, and all the natural greenery outside. My favorite moment from our wedding day was getting married underneath the big window on the main level, another main reason we picked this venue! Our family is still talking about how unique the venue was! The staff was absolutely amazing the day of our wedding, they made sure I always had a drink in my hand and truly cared about us having the best day ever. Charyl was so great to deal with, she was very informative and always answered my emails right away. The bartenders the night of the wedding were such professionals, I was nervous about only having one bar because my family can drink, but everyone told us it was the best bar at a wedding they’ve experienced and the bartenders were so quick. I also got ready with my bridesmaids in the manse and it was such an adorable spot to get ready and take pictures, and it was perfect for when me and the bridal party just needed a minute to relax during the day. We flipped the inside church for our ceremony and reception and it worked out perfect. The courtyard was used for our cocktail hour and it was so nice to relax outside and have everyone enjoy the North Carolina weather! We had around 125 guests and everyone fit perfectly downstairs on the main level for the reception, we even put some cocktail tables upstairs for people to venture upstairs to the balcony. There was PLENTY of space for everyone on the dance floor and the stage was awesome, me and my bridal party made sure to get up there for a song which was so much fun. I wouldn’t change a thing from our wedding day and highly recommend choosing the Brooklyn Arts Center for a unique wedding day!

Absolutely loved having my wedding at the Brooklyn Arts Center! Something that was so important to me was having an all inclusive venue (spaces to get ready in, ceremony, and reception location) and the BAC definitely has that. There are so many rooms and options to choose from to fit your needs. Also, Jay and Charyl are amazing to work with!! They are accommodating, will answer any of your questions, and work hard to make your day special. You are really able to utilize the beauty of the venue as decoration and it photographs so well. I highly recommend booking the BAC!

Brooklyn Arts Center was the perfect venue for our wedding day! The entire historic venue is just gorgeous. It’s also so cool that they have so many beautiful areas in one venue. Jay and the entire BAC staff were extremely friendly and professional from the first tour to choosing the venue and everything until our big day. I loved being able to get ready there with my bridesmaids as well. We were incredibly impressed with everything from day one and are so grateful that the BAC staff did everything to make our day one we will never forget. Cannot recommend this place enough!!

Beautiful venue for a wedding! The venue was exactly what I was looking for - it has so much character with so many unique spaces to capture beautiful photos. I especially loved having The Manse all day to get ready with my friends and family. It is a gorgeous space. Charyl and Jay were a pleasure to work with while planning our event, and all the preferred vendors we used were incredible! Would recommend to anyone!
