Our Story

Welcome to Shea’s Riverview, a local family-owned event venue in the heart of Wilmington. Our story began almost 20 years ago when my husband and I came to Wilmington to plan the wedding of our dreams. We experienced firsthand the magic of a perfectly orchestrated event, we were inspired to create something extraordinary for others. The joy and satisfaction that came from seeing everything come together just right made us realize how much we love the process of crafting memorable experiences. That’s why I opened an event space—to offer others the chance to celebrate their own milestones in a setting that’s as enchanting and personalized as their special event. We want to provide a venue where every detail is thoughtfully designed and every moment is cherished.

The name Shea’s Riverview is more than just a title; it’s a heartfelt dedication to my mother and daughter, who have been a constant source of inspiration. As a family, we believe in creating a warm, inviting atmosphere where you can feel at home. My goal is to make every event unforgettable, whether you’re local or visiting from afar.

We invite you to become part of our story. Let us host your next event and welcome you into the Shea’s Riverview family.
