Why Hotel DuPont Is a Vibe

Getting Ready in Style

Ceremony and Reception Goals
This venue gives you options, and Alex and Tommy nailed it by choosing two of the most iconic spaces:
- The Du Barry Ballroom: This is where they said “I do” in a super meaningful Jewish ceremony. The room’s timeless elegance made it even more special.
- The Gold Ballroom: If you want your reception to feel like a scene from a fairytale, this is the spot. Picture grand chandeliers, gorgeous gold accents, and a dance floor that’s just begging for a party.

Highlights from Alex and Tommy's Wedding
Okay, let’s talk about the moment everyone was buzzing about—a surprise flash mob during their ceremony. It even made the news (ABC 7)! Yep, guests broke into song, and it was such a fun, unexpected touch that had everyone smiling (and maybe tearing up a little).
Their day was filled with love and good vibes. And even though it was chilly outside (December weddings, am I right?), the hotel’s stunning interiors gave them endless photo ops without anyone freezing. Problem solved!
Photo Perfection Everywhere You Look
Hotel DuPont is seriously a photographer’s dream. Whether you’re snapping a first look across the street at the church, striking a pose in the glamorous ballrooms, or sneaking outside for some urban vibes, this place has it all.
Alex and Tommy’s portraits were a mix of indoor elegance and outdoor charm, and every shot turned out gorgeous. So, whether it’s sunny, rainy, or freezing, you’ve got options.
Stress-Free Fun for Guests
One of the best things about Hotel DuPont? It’s so easy for your guests. The hotel’s location in downtown Wilmington means there’s valet parking, nearby garages, and even street parking for the squad. And since it’s a hotel, out-of-town guests can just head upstairs when the party’s over. No Ubers, no stress—just good times.
The Vendor Dream Team
Alex and Tommy’s wedding wouldn’t have been the same without their amazing vendors:
- Entertainment: Jelly Roll from BVT Live had everyone on the dance floor all night.
- Florist: Petals Lane, Inc. brought their A-game with stunning floral designs.
- Hair Stylist: Gloss Salon made sure everyone looked picture-perfect.
