Looking at the potential 2026 h**p ban: If your h**p product disappeared tomorrow, would your brand survive?

We've got all the deets here in our latest article: https://weareblueridge.com/h**p-ban-2026-can-your-brand-survive/

If you’re looking for a unique high-end seafood restaurant and the perfect spot for a date in downtown Wilmington, you must visit Seabird Restaurant - we stopped in last night for some small plates and drinks… and were definitely not disappointed.

Since we didn’t have reservations (which Is highly recommended), we grabbed a seat at the chef’s table overlooking the kitchen.

The local oysters, the fried shrimp and crab with hollandaise sauce, the ribs and swordfish Caesar salad were all incredibly unique, flavorful and filling. We topped it off with the flourless chocolate brownie and a banana cream.😋

I can’t believe it took us three years to finally try this place. Safe to say we’ll definitely be back!

📍 LOCATION: 1 South Front St. Wilmington, NC.

Successful (and beautiful) business trip to City of Isle of Palms, SC to chat with city council, Explore Charleston, and other IoP stakeholders… so excited for what’s to come - can’t wait to come back down soon! 🌴

Long before our Creative Director Aaron was doing what he’s doing now, he was an aspiring comic strip artist.

His silliness and creativity is exactly what he brings to each client at Blue Ridge.

Stay tuned for a total revival of his comic strips - all from the early 2000’s.

When you’re an entrepreneur, you hold your fellow entrepreneurs close. You support each other, vent when things get hard, and brainstorm ways to keep growing together.

Recently, we had the opportunity to be part of an incredible photoshoot for our friend’s new business, The Posh Dog. Our pup got to be the star of the show, helping showcase their beautiful handcrafted stoneware feeding system.

These bowls are designed to last, blend seamlessly into your home’s aesthetic, and are incredibly easy to clean. They’re the kind of quality piece you buy once and enjoy for years.

Give our friend a follow, and if our four-legged model stole your heart, send him a little love too. 🐾

Blue Ridge Creative Marketing | Wilmington, NC Brands that blend in don't win. Blue Ridge is a Southern creative marketing agency for hospitality, cannabis & healthcare brands ready to stand out.

We recently had the opportunity to stay at , and it reminded us of something we tell clients all the time:

People aren’t just booking a place to stay. They’re booking an experience.

The best marketing goes beyond showing a bedroom. It captures the details that make a property memorable, whether that’s a cozy backyard, welcoming spaces, beautiful architecture, or a story worth sharing.

For The Jewell House, that story includes a lovingly restored 1853 farmhouse that was saved and rebuilt board by board. It’s the kind of history that gives guests something to connect with before they ever arrive.

Every property has something that makes it special. Our job is helping people see it.

We actually stopped in after noticing the Mojito Bar sign out front.

Since we didn't have reservations (which I'd definitely recommend if you want to dine inside), we grabbed a table on the patio and enjoyed some people-watching.

Their summer cocktail menu was fantastic, and the limited patio menu had all the essentials we were hoping for: fresh salad, delicious pizza, and some of the best meatballs.

I can't believe it took us three years to finally try this place. Safe to say we'll definitely be back!
