Hotel Room Blocks - any recommendations?

Hey folks!

Does anyone have recommendations for hotel room blocks?  Any with continental breakfast?  I'm getting married @ the Rockwood, so we're looking in the Wilmington area.  Preferably it would be easy to get to from 95 for the out of state faction.  

Thanks in advance!

My brother got married at Rockwood and had his room blocks at the Double Tree on 202. They were great and included a shuttle to and from Rockwood for anyone staying at the hotel that night.

Maybe look at the reviews for hotels on tripadvisor or hotels.com so see what others felt about the comfort.  Next I'd call and see if any of those would comp a shuttle.

We had blocks in both the DoubleTree and Best Western on 202.  The DoubleTree because it's within walking distance of Scrimmages (we knew our friends would want to continue the drinking/partying after the reception) and the Best Western because it's where DH's family always stays when they visit from NY (they love the free breakfast!)

DoubleTree offerend a shuttle for free with a certain number of booked rooms (fee for less).  I can't remember if Best Western had one.  Both were great to work with and everyone was happy with their rooms.  I'd recommend calling both!

Thanks for the help!  I'll definitey be sure to check out the doubletree.  I've had problems with getting responses or getting representatives to work with my schedule (if i'm suggesting that my family stay there i'd like to see a room first...but apparently the fact that i work 9-5 means i'm not available during sales hours...).  Sorry, it's been an amazingly frustrating process for something that should be relatively simple! 

I appreciate the help!
