Wedding Venues in Newport

Since the Gilded Age, Newport has been a favorite retreat of the rich and famous. Industrialists and financiers built lavish summer residences on Bellevue Avenue, overlooking the sea. John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Bouvier were married in Newport, and Dwight D. Eisenhower summered at the Naval War College during his presidency. The city is also home to the International Tennis Hall of Fame and the National Sailing Hall of Fame, and it played host to the America’s Cup races from 1930 to 1983.

Today, Newport invites couples and their guests to experience its beauty and splendor for themselves. The city offers a variety of venues, perfectly suited to a range of needs and styles. Couples can celebrate in one of the city’s many historic buildings or enjoy a lovely outdoor wedding by the water. Venue rental costs vary by season.
