Fantastic Reception!

I don't think I could fit all of the good things I have to say about the Syndicate into one review. I am so glad we picked this as our venue! Before we even booked the place I could tell that Betsi and Samantha were going to go above and beyond for us. They are two of the easiest and most friendly people to work with, and they have so much experience that they think of every little thing that you don't. They have a great choice of selections, and if you think of something different, they will find a way to do it! Not to mention the venue is very inclusive! There aren't extra fees for using anything. They let you use anything they have so you don't have to purchase yourself such as card box, cake knife, champagne glasses, table numbers, etc. The night of our reception was an absolute blast, and the staff did a fantastic job! They work to keep your reception moving so you as a bride and groom get to enjoy the night, and they are all extremely friendly while doing so! I didn't worry about a single thing once I walked in. So many of our guests came up to us and told us how fun of a wedding it was and how much they loved the venue. They helped us coordinate a late night snack with Dixie Chili, and they set us up for the after party at the Gangsters piano bar, which happens to be directly connected to the venue. We had so much fun working with them, and I couldn't be more grateful for their help in truly making it a perfect day! I have learned as a bride how critical it is for you to feel comfortable working with the vendors you choose, and I couldn't have asked for two better wedding coordinators. They truly played a large role in making it the perfect day for us, and we will forever be grateful to them!

Everything we could have dreamed!

This venue is absolutely breathtaking, with a variety of rooms that cater to events of all sizes, each with its own unique charm. We had our ceremony in the Flamingo Room and our reception in the Ambassador Room, and both spaces were absolutely gorgeous! Betsi went above and beyond to bring our dream wedding to life, managing last-minute changes, timeline adjustments, and food allergies with ease. Her attention to detail was remarkable, ensuring a smooth and stress-free transition from ceremony to reception. Tiffany was equally wonderful, offering support throughout the day and keeping everything running seamlessly behind the scenes. Both Betsi and Tiffany were also incredibly calming, offering kind words and reassurance before the ceremony. And to top it all off, the venue has its own kitchens and chefs, and we’re still hearing compliments about the food—especially the late-night mac and cheese bar! The wait staff truly stood out as well, ensuring drinks were always refilled and plates cleared promptly, so our guests were always taken care of. We can't recommend The Newport Syndicate enough!

Excellent service and attention to details

Betsy was extremely helpful and insightful on what would bring everything together into a seamless dream wedding. She knew exactly what would and would not work for the couple and their wedding guests. Highly recommend Betsy and her team!!

Amazing 10/10

Our wedding was a couple weeks ago, and we still have people reaching out saying our wedding was the most fun they have had at one! Betsi made all of our wedding dreams come true. The food was AMAZING. We did the plated dinners, guests could choose between steak and chicken. We received countless compliments from our guests about how good the food was, that’s how you know it was that good! The entire room was served very quickly to which ensured our timeline for the reception went according to plan 😊 All table decor and set up was included in our package too! We came on Friday to help set up and to our surprise Betsi already had everything done! She really made the entire process stress free. The venue is beautiful too. From the lighting to the chandeliers to the backdrop behind the head table everything is included which is super rare to find in a wedding venue. What you see is what you get. The staff were all really friendly and efficient! We had open bar, and the bar was ran so well that there was never a line! Keep in mind we had 230 people and the majority were 21+. Betsi who is the main wedding coordinator is top notch. She really went above and beyond throughout the entire planning process. She was there every step of the way if we had questions, but with how hands on she was made planning the reception so easy which took a lot of the stress off of us. Words cannot express how truly grateful my husband and I are for the Syndicate staff and Betsi for all they did to make our reception so special. If you decide to have your reception there, you will not regret it!

Thank you!

The Syndicate is a beautiful venue with great food and great options to customize your day, but what sets the Syndicate above any expectation we could have had were Betsi and Samantha - the Syndicate's coordinators. Those two are attentive, collaborative, and flexible - all while managing other events and clients, which you'd never know because of the level of detail they put into you and your event. Thank you both! So happy to have had our reception at the Syndicate!
