Saint Thomas Preservation Hall Come and see our beautifully-restored, 1847 venue! We're just a few steps from the riverfront in the historic district.

Formerly a Catholic church, this beautifully-restored, 1847 venue is located in the heart of historic downtown Wilmington, North Carolina. Our exposed brick walls, stained glass windows, high ceilings and loft make Saint Thomas a perfect backdrop for your wedding festivities. We are fully-equipped for ceremonies and receptions for up to 200 seated guests. Our rental rate includes tables and chairs and use of the facility for 18 hours so that you can set up and decorate all day at no extra charge. Our lower level cocktail room and bridal suite are popular features, allowing you to hold both your ceremony and reception in one venue.
