The Sea Crest was the most stunning venue to have a beach wedding! Alyson and Heather did a fantastic job, they were so communicative and helpful! They thought of little details and questions to bring up and ask us that I would’ve never thought of. The ocean view in the reception space was perfect. The beach faces west (a bit rare on the east coast) so the sunset pictures were beyond amazing!

The Atlantic Resort at Wyndham Newport was an absolute dream venue for our wedding. From the moment we started working with Heather and her team, they were quick to respond, easy to work with, and went above and beyond to make our day special. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, with stunning views that blew our guests away. The quality of their work and the value we received was excellent - they helped us with everything from storing our huge UHaul of flowers and decor to assisting with any needs we had throughout the weekend. Heather is truly the best, and we cannot say enough good words about the Wyndham, Heather, and the whole team. Our wedding day at the Atlantic Resort was a wonderful experience that we will cherish forever.

My husband and I recently got married at this beautiful venue in August. We had the ceremony on the water and everything about the day was so beautiful and perfect. It was also so very nice to have so many things within walking distance for our guests and more than enough spaces for people to stay nearby. Everyone we worked with was so incredible and helpful. Wedding planning is very stressful, but they all had a very calming, put-together presence. They were so organized and helped make the day go seamlessly. We are beyond appreciative of Franque, Mindy, Jack and Karen and everyone else who helped make this day so very special. They were so patient and worked with us to make it everything we wanted the day to be and more. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a beach wedding!!

Having my wedding at the Newport Marriott exceeded my expectations from start to finish. You can't beat the scenic location, unmatched convenience of having accommodations under the same roof to the staff that went above and beyond with every request big or small. I can't express enough how at ease I felt leading up to my wedding working with Rachel who was my events coordinator. Throughout my entire planning process, I could always count on her for a prompt response with answers to any questions I had or resolutions to any new requests and concerns I'd throw her way. Being able to have full trust in Rachel was really the greatest gift I could ask for. She made the process so stress-free and it's worth mentioning she's super sweet and a joy to be around! When I think back on my wedding, I'll always remember how helpful she was and how much that positively impacted the entire experience. Every staff member I worked with was incredibly helpful and pleasant. My guests rang their praises after the big day too. The food and bar service was top notch. I used the house centerpieces that were gorgeous. I hadn't a single worry about everything coming together the way I planned and pictured all because of the staff here. You will NOT regret having your wedding here. Your guests will love it, you'll have an amazing weekend and your planning process will be seamless.

If the Tiffany Ballroom is available for your big day, do yourself a favor and book it! Mindy, Jayme and their team were phenomenal to work with, from our first visit to the venue through the end of our big day. The packages make stressful wedding prep more bearable and their preferred vendors are all top notch. The food is incredible (not an easy thing to find at weddings); the hors d’oeuvres and meal options allow something for everyone. If in doubt, we still hear from people about how great the short rib was! The convenience factor cannot be overstated. Having our wedding at a beautiful, affordable venue helped us out massively with logistics and gave our guests a smooth, easy weekend experience. The front desk team was accommodating to needs and made our guests feel so welcomed, from our welcome dinner to our big day. If you’re doing your research, we’re sure you’ve read about Mindy & Jayme. We’re happy to confirm that they are as great as everyone says…better, in fact! They built trust and made our dreams come true. We couldn’t be more thankful for them. If you book the Tiffany Ballroom, rest easy knowing you made the perfect choice and they’ll do everything in their power to give you a perfect wedding. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

My husband and I got married in June at the Barn and it couldn't have been more perfect! I am from Cohasset and was interested in celebrating locally. Initially, we chose the Red Lion because it had everything we wanted: all events on site, charming spaces, gorgeous outdoor grounds, and rooms for family to stay in! Throughout the planning process, we were delighted to find that the staff was incredible. Andrew and Nancy at the front desk were friendly and super helpful with navigating the room block. During the planning process and on the day of the wedding we worked with Sam Loonie and Toufek! They were an incredible team from start to finish! They were organized, efficient, and always willing to accommodate any of our needs. Sam Loonie was super responsive to the plethora of questions that I had throughout the planning process. I am not the most organized person on earth and her assistance with planning made it so much easier for me. She and Toufek made sure that our day ran so smoothly. Throughout the reception and even into the after party Sam and Toufek checked in with us to make sure all of our needs were met. We cannot thank them enough for all of the effort that went into pulling off an amazing day! We would highly recommend the Red Lion Inn to couples that are looking for a wedding venue!
