    12/10 experience with Newport Beach House and staff!

    We had the pleasure of having our wedding at the Newport Beach House: A Longwood Venue, in Middletown, RI. The venue was absolutely stunning! People talked about how beautiful the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception were. So much space! Such a beautiful venue! My wife and I were blown away by the staff and how on top of things they were. Our wedding planner, Daria, was a huge help! Her and the staff at the Newport Beach House legit made this whole process and day so easy for us. We thank Daria for all her help in set up, calls, meetings, follow-ups. It was a dream venue and a dream day! 12/10 would recommend this location and staff for any experience let alone a wedding. Thank you so much Newport Beach House! You made our day a dream come true!!

    The perfect venue!

    Newport Beach House is an amazing venue! Daria was our wedding coordinator and she was extremely responsive, professional and made the setup better than I had envisioned! The staff was great as well; we actually received a compliment about the servers from a guest. Highly recommend!

    Perfect venue

    We had an absolutely amazing experience getting married here! We are so happy that we chose this venue. Not only is the location great, but Daria, our wedding coordinator, was amazing as well. She orchestrated everything beautifully, took care of us on the day of the wedding, and answered emails in a timely manner leading up to our big day! I would highly recommend choosing Newport Beach House for your venue though no matter which coordinator is assigned to your event. We fell in love with the venue and so did our guests. They also told us how much they LOVED the food! Everything was very tasty, more than you would expect for "wedding food." It was definitely worth the money. Our guests were impressed at the service at the event as well - the staff sets everyone's plate down at the same time which is super cool to see. It was the perfect space for us and the best backdrop for our ceremony. Highly recommend!

    Best day ever

    I had my wedding at Newport Beach House on 10/28/23. Along the way during the planing process my wedding coordinator, Daria was very responsive, on top of things and ready to help me and answer any questions I had big or small. The day of ran so smooth because the venue was extremely organized, there were no visible hiccups. The food was AMAZING. All the people who worked there were a well oiled machine and aided in me having a wonderful stress free day. I would 10/10 recommend this beautiful space to any bride who is looking for modern, romantic, beachy wedding. Between the views, food and employees you cannot go wrong.

    Amazing Experience with Newport Beach House

    I cannot recommend this venue enough - the view speaks for itself, but the people and service we received were beyond our expectations. Daria was amazing to work with, so detail oriented and made our entire day flow perfectly. She worked with me through email and calls leading up the big day, answering all my questions no matter how many I had for her! On top of a great customer service experience, the food was amazing - all our guests are still raving about it.

    Perfect beach wedding venue!

    I had the BEST experience working with Ardriana and the rest of the Newport Beach House team for my wedding in August 2023!! The level of service and professionalism went above and beyond my expectations. Ardriana was very responsive throughout the whole process as we finalized our guest count and made tweaks to our food/ rental options. The wedding day went so smoothly thanks to all of her hard work organizing the timeline and coordinating with our vendors. We were lucky to have great weather for an outside ceremony and cocktail hour, and had our reception in the Eventide room. Our guests raved about the beach/ sunset views from the deck and how delicious all of the food was. Newport Beach House was truly the venue of my dreams!

    We had an amazing experience at Newport Beach House! Daria was an amazing coordinator and answered my countless emails always in a timely fashion and gave me all the information I needed to feel comfortable day of wedding.

    Fantastic Wedding Venue

    Incredible experience! Loved working with Daria, her planning ahead of time and day of co-ordination significantly reduced our stress and provided a seamless planning experience. Food, drinks, venue it-self and the staff were all 10/10.

    Newport Beach House

    Our wedding day ended up being far better than what we even imagined! As disappointed as we were to not have the ceremony outside, the inside “plan b” ended up being just as amazing and beautiful. Hands down, one of the best wedding venue food I’ve ever had. Also, Daria was extremely helpful and flexible with ensuring our day was perfect and to our expectations! Jess was also amazing to deal with and was always there looking out for us too!

    The most gorgeous venue space

    We had our wedding at Newport Beach House in November 2022. From the moment I laid eyes on the venue, I knew I wanted to have our wedding here. The venue itself is stunningly beautiful - a clean and modern yet beachy and boho space of my dreams. The views outside on the beach are as stunning as they are inside the venue itself. We rented out the entire venue for our wedding, which I highly recommend, especially for a larger wedding. Our event coordinator, Ardriana, was amazing to work with from start to finish. She made the entire process so easy. Everything from the food to the service was incredible on the day of our event. The only complaint we had was that the venue does nickel and dime for anything you want to add on. This was completely unrelated to Ardriana but when spending so much money on a venue, it seems a little silly to charge an additional $500 for needing to get into the venue 20 minutes early for a first look. This is probably pretty standard in the industry but felt a little stingy. Regardless of this, I would choose NBH again and again and cannot recommend them (and Ardriana!) enough for helping us host the wedding of our wildest dreams! All of our guests had an amazing time and absolutely loved the space.

    Our perfect coastal wedding

    We had an absolutely incredible experience with Newport Beach House as our ceremony and reception venue. If you are looking for a romantic, beachside venue with an amazing staff and catering/bar/rentals all in one place, then this is the venue for you.

    Starting a little over a year in advance, we worked with Carly for several months who was so helpful in our initial booking process. We then worked with Ardriana from the point of our food tasting onward and she was the absolute BEST. Her organization and communication was impeccable and her enthusiasm was unmatched (on our two week pre-event phone call, I couldn't tell who was more excited, myself or Ardriana!). She was also our day-of coordinator and went above and beyond. From finding 50 bobby pins to stabilize my veil when the coastal winds kept ripping it out to running out on the deck in a torrential downpour to save our outdoor signs, she truly did it all. We are so grateful.

    The food was some of the best wedding food I have ever eaten (and yes I actually got to eat because the staff were so helpful in making sure my husband and I did!). Many of our guests said the same thing. The drinks were also great! Everyone loved our signature Aperol Spritz. They also added a beer to the bar list for us because my husband and his guys love Michelob Ultra. I could list many more small details they did to make our night perfect but instead I will just say, don't think twice and book it!

    Indian/Catholic fusion wedding

    I cannot speak highly enough about NBH. I had a very complicated, tightly packed schedule of Indian/Catholic fusion events and NBH made the process SO easy. They allowed for a baraat, full Indian ceremony, and their own Indian fusion menu that blew our guests away. They were SO attentive to me throughout the day. The venue is stunning, and I heard from several guests that it was their favorite venue of all time. I’m going to relive this day throughout my life thanks to NBH. Its expensive, but worth t every penny.

    Best Day Ever!!

    Not only is this venue absolutely beautiful, their staff is so professional, helpful, and efficient. Everything from booking the wedding back in 2019 to our wedding day in 2022 was perfect. They were super accommodating with COVID when we decided to move our wedding date. I can not recommend this venue enough! Also, the food is cooked on site by their chefs and is amazing!

    Absolutely wonderful!

    Planning a wedding is never an easy task but planning one in a pandemic adds another layer of crazy! After having to reschedule several times due to COVID, we finally were able to have the wedding of our dreams. From start to finish, the team at NBH was communicative, supportive, and all around amazing. Daria was fantastic to work with, handling my million questions with ease and we loved our day of attendant Susan - she went above and beyond to make sure we ate, stayed on time, and overall had an amazing experience. The food was truly exceptional, our guests were absolutely raving about it.

    The venue is truly beautiful - the views are stunning and the building is so modern and gorgeous. We knew it was our place the moment we walked in. I couldn't recommend Newport Beach House more!

    NBH - beach venue

    Ardriana and staff were amazing and so helpful through out the planning process and the night of the wedding. The venue is awesome, right on the beach so our guests could enjoy an indoor and outdoor space. All our guests commented on how good the food was. NBH deserves a thumbs up for location, service, and food.

    The best day...

    As a result of the pandemic, we had to reschedule our wedding date three times. Despite the NBH team being amazing with all of the dates, I was regretting not just eloping. And then the day came, and it was AMAZING. Daria and Dan were a dream team-- we didn't have to worry about a thing. Our guests have been talking about the food and environment nonstop. I could not say more about the people and venue-- I wish we could get married there every day to experience it again and again.

    Absolutely beautiful!

    My husband and I are so happy we chose this venue for our wedding day...it is absolutely GORGEOUS! We were so impressed with the staff and the food was delicious (the surf and turf melts in your mouth). Our signature cocktails were spot on. The ocean view was the perfect backdrop as we danced and celebrated before taking the party downstairs to the Oyster Lounge. There we danced, chilled out in front of the fire-pit, and had mini chicken and waffles as a late night snack. Overall, it was a great experience...you won't be disappointed.

    Everything we dreamed of!

    My now husband and I were guests at a beautiful wedding at the Newport Beach House in 2017. Fast forward to 2020 when we got engaged, we knew we had to visit the venue again. Needless to say, we fell in love the second we stepped back here and booked the Surfside space for a Sept 2021 wedding. The ocean backdrop and private beach setting is breathtaking. The Longwood team (and HUGE shoutout to Daria W, our day-of event coordinator) were very professional, communicative, and organized. Given the pandemic, we had some last minute changes to our guest count / food options, and the team was very understanding and flexible, working with us on everything. The food was by far the BEST food we've ever had at a wedding and everyone had commented on how delicious everything was (to this day, our friends & family are still talking about the food). Just thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts - it was truly everything we could have dreamed of and more.

    Amazing! Absolutely Recommend Newport Beach House!!

    The Newport Beach House from start to finish was fantastic to work with. We absolutely love the space, it is both modern in it's fit & finish, but also located on the beach where it has a nice casual vibe that isn't overly pretentious. The outdoor space is gorgeous right on the beach with a terrace and 2nd floor balcony - and there is plenty of space for guests. Our wedding day was unfortunately a bit cold and rainy, where the venue was able to accommodate us inside...and everything still looked amazing and still had gorgeous views.

    As for the food, everything was delicious. We got compliments from everyone we spoke with about how good the food was; comes in decent size portions, and is well presented.

    Lastly, which we can't speak highly enough about - the planning process was great. Starting from Carly who was our sales rep working with us to secure our date and rental agreement. We did then have a few different wedding coordinators that we worked with, but also recognize that resources were in flux due to COVID, which made us a bit nervous - however, the venue and transition between their personnel and every single person we worked with was absolutely fantastic. We were able to do a tasting with both of our parents, which was a really fun experience and then would like to give special shout outs to Meghan Dargy and Ardriana Ferri!! Not only were they very communicative and pleasant pre-wedding, but they were both on-site with us, and they knew every single logistic that we had in our head to always keep us one-step ahead of where we needed t be.

    We'd absolutely recommend the Newport Beach House to anyone considering this venue. Not to mention, there are plenty of really great Airbnbs in the area that makes for a really fun weekend and overall guest experience for those coming into Newport.

    So happy we picked Newport Beach House!

    I can't even put into words how wonderful my experience with the Newport Beach House team has been this far. From viewing the venue to our tasting to now rescheduling due to the pandemic - each team member has been absolutely amazing and a joy to work with. Our wedding date was scheduled for this September 2020 and we JUST decided to postpone with 4 weeks to go. Throughout the whole pandemic Sarah the Director of Events has been responsive, attentive, and incredibly understanding and patient with us. Even when I know she is short handed and has a lot more on her plate than usual. We decided on having biweekly calls leading up to the September date which made me feel less anxious knowing she was available to answer all questions and concerns. She always started the calls asking what we were thinking/feeling. Although making the choice to postpone was difficult, I am so excited for our new wedding date next year. Big shout out to Carly and Meghan from the team, too! This is such a difficult time to be in the events industry and you are all doing wonderfully!

    Exceptional Service & Professionalism

    There really are no words to describe my appreciation for Ardriana, Jess and the team at Newport Beach House. My husband and I started planning our wedding in 2019 scheduled to be married Nov 1, 2020. Due to Covid we were forced like so many to move and reschedule. NBH and their team members made everything so easy, stressless and seamless during this hectic time. Their venue, view and staff are second to none and the service is the best you could request. Everyone was extremely friendly and professional. My mom and I bought a ton of decor to decorate the tables, room and cocktail hour to match our fall rustic theme; we left everything in the hands of Ardriana and she blew us away with the way the room was set up. We really can’t thank her and everyone there for their support to get us to our reception day (finally) and would advise everyone that Newport Beach House should be the place you chose to be married.
