Just... AMAZING. Exceeded Our Expectations In Every Way Possible!
Hotel Providence truly gave my fiancée and I the wedding of our dreams. The venue and its staff could not have been any better!
So here are 10 strange and off-beat things that you probably won’t think about when planning your wedding, but they’re things that all end up *really* mattering to how great your weekend is:
(1) How nice / fancy/ *BALLER* is your hotel room the night of your wedding? (unbelievable….. Oprah stayed in the same room they gave us FOR FREE! It’s enormous, and so fancy!)
(2) Will the venue let you reserve their entire restaurant for free the night before your wedding for your rehearsal dinner? (Um… what?! They really did that. And they had appetizers on the table waiting for us after our ceremony rehearsal)
(3) Will all of the entire venue staff be super sweet and gracious and go out of their way to remember your name? (YES! Even down to the valet parkers!)
(4) Will the wedding planner at the venue be unbelievably responsive and answer all of your questions / emails / phone calls within an hour or less in the months leading up to the wedding?! (What?!? YES! She DOES! Even when you’ve already emailed her like 30 times already that week!)
(5) Will the FREE hotel room that the venue gives you be big enough so you can get ready with your entire bridal party, your Mom, your makeup person & your photographer all in the same space, AND give you enough room to spread out lunch for everyone? (YES! It was where OPRAH stayed! It’s huge!)
(6) How easily will I be able to unload all my wedding decorations / signs / suitcases / photo-booth / gear? (pull up in front! They’ll help you unload all your boxes of decorations and be *super* careful with your dress. And then they’ll park for you.)
(7) Will the venue staff be running around behind the scenes like crazy, moving centerpieces & decorations, running to get the wedding vows when you forgot them in your room, all while making it look *effortless and seamless*?? (Why…. YES! They DO!)
(8) Will it be 100% awesome for 100% of your guests to find hotels / airb’n’bs/ etc within walking distance of your ceremony & reception? (YES! Everyone *loved* that they were so close to us)
(9) Will the chef go out of his way to accommodate everything that you’d like to have at the times you want it? (YES! 1,000%)
(10) Will everyone tell you, after your wedding, how delicious the food was, how beautiful the venue was, and how comfortable and happy they felt at your wedding? (YEP! They absolutely did!)
I could go on and on and on about why Hotel Providence is the most perfect place in Rhode Island to pick for your wedding venue.
And TBH, we picked it because it was, by far, the most affordable of the 30 different venues that we researched in Rhode Island.
But that turned out to be the least important thing about it… (besides the fact that having our wedding there saved us *thousands* of dollars).
The most important thing about picking Hotel Providence for your wedding venue is that they look after *every* *single* detail, and make SURE that along every step of the way, the bride and groom are having a wonderful, stress-free day.
And they make you feel super special and super important while they’re doing it.
Thank you Kate!! Thank you Emily!!
We could not have possibly loved your venue any more.
Cheers, Amber & Phil

Hotel Providence New Year's Eve Wedding
Better late than never. Our wedding was nearly 1 year ago.
If I could describe Kate from Hotel Providence in one word, it would be professional. She was very responsive and helped guide us through our New Year's eve wedding; it was clear this was not her first rodeo. The hotel is a lovely and very unique space. The rooms are great and 100% pet friendly, which was a great bonus for us and several guests as well.
There are also great outdoor areas that would be awesome for a summer wedding, but even in the winter, we had a blast, and would definitely recommend.
