Tim and Natalie were super helpful and kind. The venue was pre-decorated for Christmas and we loved it! Anything we needed, we asked them first, and they were happy to share with us: drink dispensers, an easel, even jumper cables for when our car wouldn’t start. They communicated everything clearly and were very friendly to us. The venue is wonderful, clean, and organized. It felt like a Christmas fairytale and we’re so thankful for them!

We worked with Active Entertainment for our wedding at 128 South, and our DJ Shawn was absolutely incredible. He handled everything—ceremony music, mics for the officiant and readings, cocktail hour, dancing, lighting, and MCing—and did it all flawlessly. Shawn totally understood our vibe. He followed our must-play and do-not-play lists to a tee and added his own creative touches and fun mixes that fit perfectly. He kept the energy up all night. The dance floor was packed the entire time—people didn’t want to leave! Our friends & family are still talking about how amazing the music was. There were so many special moments, but one standout was that Shawn filmed our private last dance and sent it to us after the wedding. It was such a thoughtful surprise and something we’ll treasure forever. We can’t recommend Active Entertainment enough. Truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding and our day would not have been as amazing without Shawn!

Hi, I’m Sarah, the photographer behind Booth Creative Co., a Wilmington, North Carolina wedding photographer serving couples across North Carolina and beyond. I believe wedding photos should feel like you. The quiet in-between moments, the laughter with your favorite people, the unexpected emotions, and the timeless portraits you and your family will treasure for years. My approach blends documentary storytelling with classic, intentional portraiture. Whether your celebration is laid-back and spontaneous or more traditional and structured, I adapt to what matters most and create honest images that reflect the true feeling of your day.

We couldn’t be happier with Sarah’s work. We switched things up and did a one year celebration of marriage party since we got married at the courthouse. I was worried I was going to make things difficult not being an actual wedding but from the very beginning her communication was confident, clear, and easy she made us feel so comfortable! The quality of her work is truly amazing, the end result is a stunning collection of images that we will cherish forever. We highly recommend Booth Creative Co.

We’ve been using Justina as our photographer since we got engaged. I knew she was featured at the best family photographer in Wilmington, and even before kids, I loved her style so much that I knew I just had to have her! She has been capturing moments for our family for the past 4 years, and I always recommend her to everyone I talk to (although hesitantly - sometimes I selfishly want to keep her all to myself). I couldn’t imagine a better photographer for our wedding. She accommodated every single request, knew what I needed before I even knew what I wanted, and sometimes has few a secret spots up her sleeve. She had a vision that exceeded my expectations, all while capturing all of my requests - every single time. I cherish all of the sweet moments she was able to capture, including the precious time with my mother getting dressed, the first look with my husband, the tears in my eyes as we read our vows, my bridesmaids bowing their heads during prayer, my uncle choking up as he expressed how words cannot describe how much we miss my father, the pure bliss displayed by my mother-in-law as she danced with my husband, not to mention all the surprises I didn’t notice until viewing the photos - our friends on the dance floor, the kids who made funny faces during dinner, the friends who passed out on chairs because they didn’t want to miss out on the fun. I could go on and on. These things don’t happen by accident, and I wouldn’t want anyone else to capture these memories for us.

We selected The Tap Room to host our pre-wedding celebration with our family and friends, and I wish we could give more than 5 stars! Nicole, our event coordinator, is amazing! We had fantastic communication from day one. The whole team was very attentive, caring, and excited to help make our dinner an excellent experience...Thanks again for making our wedding week super special!
