He booked the Loft at 128 South for a little pre-wedding time with the guys before it was time for the main event. 🤵‍♂️✨

From getting ready to the moment he finally saw his bride, the Loft was the perfect place to slow down, celebrate, and soak it all in before saying “I do” at Bakery 105.

Because sometimes the groom deserves a room with a view, and a little moment of his own.

Planning your wedding day in Wilmington? Let’s make room for every part of it.
