Emma G. Sent on 06/04/2024Their Location, Space, Team and Heart are all Unmatched
Having Bakery 105 be our reception venue of choice was one of our quickest decisions in the wedding planning process! And if you’re a bride or you went through the planning of a wedding, you know that there are so many decisions to make.
Our guests absolutely LOVED the option of getting to mingle on the courtyard AND dancing the night away inside those beautiful washed brick walls. We had about 85 people in attendance on May 4th, 2024, and the space felt perfect, wasn’t too much space and it didn't feel too closed off. I’m a pretty easy-going, “plain-Jane” kind of person and Bakery 105 molded to my style perfectly – it didn’t need much added, the greenery in the courtyard brought so much color to the space, not to mention it was the perfect backdrop for gorgeous photos, the natural brick went with everything I had planned for table setting, and there were endless options in how to layout the space and Bakery and my planner did a fantastic job.
Reserving the Cottage across the street from Bakery made my morning getting ready with my girls so fun and I loved being so close to the reception venue (and it was close to the church we got married in – double win). It was such a cute space inside, great natural lighting for my hair and makeup artist to do their work, and a cozy area to hang out. It had the best backdrops for photos, the tree just out front made for some pretty spectacular pictures and provided shade when I did all my first looks.
On to the team – WOW. From the initial emails with Jordan and Katie, to the phone calls they hopped on with me, to the team day of – these people did a fantastic job of making me and all of my guests feel like royalty. Each staff member was so kind, they were attentive, and willing to do whatever they needed to in order to make us happy – I literally didn’t have to tell anyone to get me anything they just knew! It was incredible. They were organized, quick to clean up, and I received so many comments about how great the staff was!
If you’re wondering what to do as far as catering, you’re crazy if you don’t go with 128 South. My husband and I had been to an event with their catering before so there was no need to taste test, we knew we’d love it. Everyone was blown away – food is an important part of your wedding day guests will definitely remember that part so I’m glad to know they’ll remember mine! And again with the staff, they made sure my husband and I had our plates first.
10/10 recommend Bakery 105, their location, space, team and heart are all unmatched!!Bakery 105's reply:
EMMA! HOLY COW!!! You have made all of our days here in the office! Thank you so so so much for taking the time to write us such a glowing review! We truly appreciate it and YOU! We are so happy that you loved celebrating with us here at Bakery 105 -

Truly the perfect wedding venue
Having our wedding at Bakery 105 was the best decision we have made regarding our wedding. As an out of town bride, I was anxious about wedding planning but the staff at Info South/Bakery 105 made the day absolutely perfect. The staff were so knowledgeable and also recommended a ton of truly amazing vendors which made planning an out of town wedding a whole lot easier. They were so communicative and kind and truly brought our vision for our wedding day to life. Our wedding day could not have been more perfect and it’s because of the “Katies”. So many of guests came up to us at the wedding and said it was the most organized wedding they have been to and it’s all because of the staff at Bakery 105. The venue is so naturally pretty and in the most convenient location in downtown Wilmington. There are a ton of hotels and rentals near by. The food and service with 128 South Catering was amazing and there were almost too many options. I cannot say enough great things about Bakery 105, and I am so grateful to them for making our wedding day, our favorite day.Bakery 105's reply:
GABBY!!! WOW WOW WOW! Thank you for sharing this! What a way to start the day! You were the most beautiful bride (& couple)! We truly loved every second of working with you. We wish you all the happiness in the world! Cheers to forever! -

Bakery 105 - YES, DO IT!!
Choosing to host our wedding ceremony and reception at Bakery 105 was truly the best decision we could have made in our wedding planning process (aside from choosing to work with Belle Amè Events - can’t recommend Jennifer and her team enough).
The staff at Bakery was an absolute pleasure to work with during the months leading up to our big day. While wedding planning can be super stressful, the Bakery team made all of our decisions so easy. We especially appreciated their help in reminding us of deadlines and payments coming due. Katie and Jordan were our main points of contact throughout the planning process. They handled every email and phone call with the upmost professionalism and kindness. They were always willing to answer our questions and accommodate our requests. We invited 150 guests, but only had around 120 in attendance. This truly felt like the perfect size for the venue, with plenty of space for tables, dancing, and mingling in between.
We chose 128 South for our catering (affiliated with Bakery 105) and it was seriously one of the best meals we’ve ever had (check out our review on their page for more details on the food). If you’re considering Bakery 105 for your event, let this be your sign!!! This team and this space helped to create the best day of our entire lives! 💗Bakery 105's reply:
KENNEDY!!! Oh my oh my!!! Thank you so so much for sharing this! You are seriously TOO sweet! You were a pleasure to work with and the most beautiful bride! Your wedding was truly beautiful, and we LOVED all the pink at Bakery! We wish you a lifetime of happiness -

Danlee Sent on 04/26/2024Breathtaking Venue
Our experience at Bakery 105 for our wedding was perfect. From the moment we chose this venue, we knew we had made the perfect decision.
Firstly, the space is beautiful. From the exposed brick walls to the green courtyard, every corner of the venue was stunning, and it provided the perfect backdrop for our wedding celebrations.
Next, the coordination between Bakery 105 and our wedding planner was seamless. Their team worked hand-in-hand with our planner to ensure that every detail of our special day was executed flawlessly. Their professionalism and willingness to collaborate made the planning process incredibly smooth and stress-free.
In terms of value, Bakery 105 exceeded our expectations. Not only were their prices competitive, but the quality of service and amenities included far surpassed what we could have imagined. We felt that every dollar spent was worth it, and then some.
One of the standout features of Bakery 105 is its ideal location. Situated close to The Cottage Bridal Suite and local bed and breakfasts, it was incredibly convenient for both us and our guests. The proximity to these accommodations added an extra layer of convenience and comfort to our wedding weekend.
The only hiccup we encountered was a minor one - my husband's name was misspelled on the venue welcome sign. However, this small oversight did not detract from the overall experience, and the team at Bakery 105 was quick to rectify the error.
Overall, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our special day. Bakery 105 exceeded our expectations in every way, and we are grateful to their team for helping to make our wedding dreams a reality.Bakery 105's reply:
Wow oh wow! Thank you so so much for sharing these kind words Danlee! We are so glad you had a perfect wedding day, and we are glad we were able to be part of it! -

Ty Leatherman Sent on 12/16/2023The best decision we made!
The absolute best decision we made was choosing Bakery 105 for our venue and Katie for our day of coordinator. The entire team at Bakery/128 South was so great to work with from day one. They were always extremely responsive, helpful and treated you like you were the most important bride even when they were working with numerous others. First, the venue is gorgeous and allows you to have inside and outside options. The brick inside and greenery outside provide beautiful canvases for your special day. We chose 128 South for catering and the food was amazing. We received so many compliments on our food so we know we made the right decision. Last but certainly not least, is Katie. What can I say other than she is amazing!! She was so much more than a day of coordinator. I planned my own wedding and could not have done it without her help. She assisted me with everything for over a year and never made me feel like I was a bother. On the day of, she was superwoman and ensured everything appeared flawless. Somehow, she managed to keep us on schedule and always appeared out of nowhere to put a drink in my hand! I truly can’t say enough good things about her and the entire team. They really make you feel like you are family. I can assure you that you’ll be in the BEST hands when you choose Bakery/128 South for your big day!Bakery 105's reply:
TY!!! You are wonderful! Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a thoughtful review! We appreciate your kind words so much! We loved working with you to make your dream wedding come true! -

Rachel G. Sent on 12/16/2023Could not have been more perfect
Bakery 105 made our wedding day more perfect than we could have imagined. I highly recommend the Wedding Day Experience package. It is super inclusive and comes with so many thing built in that it makes planning way easier. Katie at Bakery 105 was so helpful, knowledgeable, friendly, and organized. The things you should know if you're considering Bakery 105 as your venue are:
1) The venue (outside and inside) and location could not be more beautiful. There are so many hotels and restaurants in just a 5 minute walk from the venue. I think the location enhanced our guests' experience for the whole wedding weekend so much, rather than having a venue a 30+ minute drive from anything in the middle of nowhere.
2) The food is amazing. Food was one of the most important things to us. We had so many guests compliment the food and ask for recipes for weeks after.
3) The service could not be better. We had so many guests tell us how attentive the waitstaff were. They kept appetizers, drinks, wine, and water coming quickly the whole night. Katie made sure me and my husband had everything we needed the whole night.
4) Everyone at Bakery 105, especially Katie, are so easy and nice to work with. Everything is transparent and they are always available by phone or email.Bakery 105's reply:
Rachel! This is so sweet! Thank you (again) for your kind words!
We are so so happy that you chose us to be a part of your special day! You were such a lovely couple! We wish you the best of the best! -

Shoshana G. Sent on 11/25/2023Organized, kind, thoughtful, and prioritized us from start to end!
My wife and I got married at Bakery 105 on November 5th 2023 and it was one of the best days of our lives! We absolutely fell in love with the venue when we came to tour last year. The wall of greenery on the outside is a very quick eyecatcher, but there is nothing about this venue that could disappoint. We loved being able to share our day with our loved ones in such a beautiful space. Lauren, our day of coordinator, hit it out of the park and we absolutely adore her. She was very organized, very thoughtful, and kept us at the forefront of her priorities every time. Katie helped to arrange our initial meeting and was kind, helpful, and informative, especially since we were planning everything on our own. Thank you guys so much for everything, this was such a wonderful experience!Bakery 105's reply:
Hi Shoshana! We are so glad you enjoyed your special day! Lauren & Katie both enjoyed working with you two so much! Congratulations to you both! We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness!
Best,
Bakery 105 Team!

Look no further- this is THE venue and team!
If I could give Bakery 105 a million stars I would, they were AMAZING beginning to end! Our day was handled with such care, making sure every little detail was exactly how we imagined. The absolute magic this team puts on will blow you and your guests away, so look no further! They really are the experts here in Wilmington, and the setting is perfect for couples looking for a fun and beautiful day (that turns into an easy and walkable night out!) Davis was our DOC, and holy MOLY was he incredible! Our families could not stop raving about his energy and attention towards them and any needs. Drinks were kept full, everything ran on-time, and if there were any fires to put out my husband and I never had a clue! He’s an absolute rockstar! If there’s any hesitation left, take a look through just some of the beauty this team helped create- I’ll never be over this day! THANK YOU to the entire Bakery 105 team, the best in the business!Bakery 105's reply:
Hi Kelsey!
Congratulations once again, and thank you for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review! Davis absolutely loved working with your AMAZING self!
Thank you again for the kind words! -

This venue and their staff are AMAZING! I can't say enough good things about my experience - I am very "type A" and they were there for me for every detail, every question, and every idea. My wedding day was the best day of my life because of all they did and all they helped me create. I'd highly recommend their in-house catering as well. Get married here people! -

(Venue, bar, coordinator, dance floor, Cottage rental)
Bakery 105 was the perfect spot for our cottage core, Ghibli-esque wedding. The venue was bright, beautiful, and nothing short of magical. The whole team answered any questions we had with kind, thoughtful responses. We did our bar and coordinator through the venue and boy was it just EASY. Lauren, our coordinator, and Davis who also helps coordinate were such wonderful, passionate people. Lauren made sure we were perfectly set up, able to mingle but also EAT. Overall an amazing, perfect team. -

Everyone at this venue is so nice. The venue itself is beautiful, clean, and amazing. We used their draping and it was BEAUTIFUL! They were always answering my questions (and mom and grandma lol). You can tell they really care about what they do -

Olivia C. Sent on 05/03/2023Strongly consider Bakery 105 for your wedding ceremony and or reception
Bakery 105 as a venue for wedding ceremony and reception after was perfect! They are comparable to other places for pricing and have a beautiful outside and inside area with handicapped entrance. Go for a tour. The brick wall and greenery walls won me. And the office staff Katie and Jordan etc always answer your emails and seem genuinely excited to help! Used them for catering and loved that they also have tables and chairs (saves money). And they work so well with all the vendors it went very smoothly. Rent the cottage on orange street to get ready at its so perfect. Great spot for pictures posed and candid. Just can’t say enough good things. The wedding was perfect thank you guys. -
