Discover the Perfect Event Venue at 13W

Welcome to 13W, a unique and unforgettable space to host your wedding or party.

Located in downtown Charlotte Amalie in St. Thomas, 13W is unlike anything you’ll find in the Caribbean.

Steeped in history, the property is 200 years old. Old rubble masonry walls throughout highlight the indoor space. The high ceilings are most likely made of old ship boards – from retired vessels from the Golden Age of Sail.

But what makes the property magical is the lush fauna in the private gardens behind the building. Celebrate your event and party the day or night away under the shade of palm trees or under the stars.

Between the indoor and outdoor spaces there are innumerable ways to plan and execute your event.

We offer packages that include every detail – a full staff, tables, chairs and decor. A full-kitchen on site, along with a one-of-a-kind outdoor hearth means your menu is nearly unlimited. And our ons-te coordinators oversee every aspect of your event so you and your guests can enjoy your time in paradise.

We basically believe in 2 things:

1. Your event should be ridiculously easy.

2. Your event should be delightfully beyond anything you imagined.

I’m Island Mike and my wife is Amber. We are a husband and wife team that have been planning events for years and have single-handedly hosted more events than anyone in the islands – from small weddings and receptions to lavish corporate parties…and even a soccer banquet or two.

During the pandemic, when events were slowing to a crawl, we got bored and a bit nervous about our careers. So we bought an old, forgotten building. A structure that was lost to time, abandoned and destined for condemnation. But a fateful moment occurred when we visited the property. Hidden behind walls of garbage and debris we saw glimpses of the brick walls. And then there was the tiny courtyard where there sat an incredible specimen – an outdoor, double oven. It was crumbling and left to rot but we knew it must be a relic of a rich history.

So, being slightly delusional and delirious we bought the place. And spent the better part of 3 years putting her back together. She is a lovely building with the elegance that only can be earned with time. And her gardens are unique in the islands for their grace in an urban setting

If you decide to hold your event with us, we promise your day will be magical.

We will plan every detail…
