Ironclad was the absolute perfect place to host our wedding! Rachel and the entire staff made everything so easy and the space worked perfectly for the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception. The price was all inclusive- to include the venue, the staff, and open bar for our guests for a designated amount of time and ended up being cheaper than it would have been had we purchased all the elements separately, and with the convenience of having everything (and everyone) under one roof! The ambience was exactly what we were looking for: rustic, yet dreamy- with twinkle lights everywhere. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to say “I do”!

We changed our mind many times and they were so accommodating. 128 S does group tastings which is such a great concept! You truly get to see before your wedding day how capable their chefs are of making a meal on a large scale and how attentive all of their service staff and bartenders are. The entire tasting experience put me at ease for the day of! 5 stars is not enough for the professionalism and clarity of communication from the venue/catering services.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'm a professional photographer in the wedding industry in Wilmington, and I've known the owner Kelly for awhile now. We have worked together before for many photo shoots, styled shoots, etc. and she is ALWAYS a dream to make a vision come to life with. And now that she owns Maven Monroe, it's even BETTER. The space itself is stunning, and the perfectly clean, white space (photographers love this) with natural light available, it's an absolute pleasure to work in. And I LOVE that there's even TWO getting ready spaces on the property, and soon-to-be a back patio, too!! Don't hesitate to book Maven Monroe not only for the stunning venue, but also for the joy of working with Kelly. She will make alllllllll your dreams come true.
