Waterfront Celebrations with a Little More Personality

Docklands Riverfront is a Wilmington waterfront wedding venue in New Castle County, Delaware, offering scenic Christina River views, private dining spaces, and a lively atmosphere for celebrations of up to 200 guests.

Located along Wilmington's Riverfront, Docklands combines the energy of a popular restaurant and live music destination with the flexibility of a private event venue. From rehearsal dinners and bridal showers to wedding receptions and welcome parties, couples can celebrate with waterfront cocktails, customizable menus, and a setting that doesn't take itself too seriously.
