“Most of it was filmed around Wilmington.. The church where Jamie and Landon got married  [ . . .] is Orton Chapel located on Orton Plantation, which is near Wilmington.  It’s about 45 minutes away.  Several parts of the movie [were] filmed in Southport, near Oak Island. (1 hour away from Wilmington.)  The part where Jamie drove Landon home after play practice was shot there.”
