I first found the Riverhouse searching on Zola. My husband and I spoke with Holly for our initial appointment. Holly had light music playing over the speakers when we arrived, and when I walked into the ballroom and onto the dance floor, I looked at my now husband and said, “This is it, I hope they have a date in 2025 available”. The planning process with Kelley and the team was wonderful! The worksheets that are provided make planning easy and outline all the tasks clearly. We attended their vendor show which helped us determine exactly what we were looking for in our vendors to design our perfect wedding day. Our detail meeting about a month before our wedding day was smooth and we easily made all our banquet choices. A week before our wedding, we met with Holly to ensure our day of timeline was exactly how we wanted it – she totally nailed it day of! We have been to many weddings, and we believed that food was one of the most important parts of our day. We were blown away by the quality (and quantity!) of food at the Riverhouse. At our tasting, my husband and I ranked the appetizer, salad and dinner choices. The rankings were so high, we had trouble narrowing it down! It’s been about 3 weeks, and our guests are still complementing our food and saying how beautiful the venue was. The mac and cheese bar has been a HUGE hit with our guests. On our wedding day, Holly and Loretta kept everything smooth and seamless and both ladies provided a calming atmosphere when things started to feel chaotic (shout out to Loretta for grabbing me tums!). It truly seemed as if all the staff at the Riverhouse enjoyed our wedding event as much as our guests did! The food service was outstanding and went right along with our timeline, our bartenders were flawless, and we totally spied a little bit of dancing going on to our music and we were absolutely overjoyed! We would like to thank everyone at the Riverhouse for making our day amazing! We hope to see you all again sometime soon!

When I tell you our day went flawlessly, I’m not lying. Bethany and Gage and their team were the most supportive, patient and beyond helpful in every situation that popped up along the 2 years of planning! From the moment we stepped in, Bethany greeted us with a smile. In fact, we like the walk through, details and inclusiveness so much, we didn’t need to look any further. Our day of coordinator Gage was wonderfully calming on an absolutely chaotic day. He calmed me every time I needed to be, he guided our entire wedding party and families graciously and gracefully. The food was the talk of the night and was delicious!

We were so glad we found Meadow Brook Inn! It checked off all of the boxes for us AND the staff were awesome to work with. We dreamt of having our ceremony outdoors in nature and despite a little bit of rain, the MBI team made sure our dreams came true. Marisa was communicative throughout the process and guided us through our ceremony rehearsal. Our guests raved about the appetizers and desserts and over all we had a joyful experience. The ceremony space was so peaceful, the lawn is elegant and charming, and the reception hall, lounge, and bar are all spacious and comfortable. We were able to come in the day before to decorate before our rehearsal and add our own personal touch the the venue. I am so grateful we found MBI and that we were able to host our wedding here :) Thank you Marisa, Gabe, Brian, and to the whole MBI team for making this once in a lifetime celebration so special for all of us!

Great quality of work for a the value ; the venue is open, clean, bright, and airy, creating the perfect atmosphere for a wedding or big event . One memorable example was when the staff dressed up along with the Gatsby-themed wedding, truly immersing themselves in the couple's vision.

Wright’s Mill Farm has weddings down! Between they’re prompt response for any questions we might have had, the upfront pricing, the guidebook, we were left feeling like we could tackle this wedding with no issues! But the real reason for that is the people! Bri is amazing, there isn’t anyone else I could imagine to trust to run the show like she did! Curt always had an answer for any question we came up with, Krissy was amazing, she paid special attention to my elderly grandparents, and they have been raving about her since the wedding! Mark was who we planned the music with, and the meetings we had with him were clear and concise and amazing to nail that all down, but when it came to the night of, we couldn’t have asked for a better DJ, Patrick was fantastic!

I have loved coming to the Essex Steam Train & Riverboat museum since I was a child so when my husband and I got engaged, we knew we had to get married here. It was such a magical venue and was reasonably priced. They truly don't try to nickel-and-dime you like a lot of other wedding venues, they just want you to have a good experience. The bridal suite was a beautifully decorated air-conditioned train car. We also decided to add on a roundtrip steam train ride down to the CT river and a steamboat cruise as our cocktail hour (honestly didn't cost as much as you'd think...). Our reception was inside the hall and was perfectly air-conditioned and decorated. We did a buffet option and the food was good! If you decide to get married outside, just remember that it IS an active train yard so make sure your officiant has a microphone. Meredith and Tyler were very easy to work with while planning the event. I highly recommend getting married here. Oh, and your photos will look INSANE.

We recently had our wedding at Water’s Edge Resort and Spa, and overall, it was a beautiful and memorable day. The setting is absolutely stunning, with a gorgeous waterfront backdrop that sets the tone for a romantic, coastal celebration. The Venue: The venue itself is the real star. The ceremony space overlooking the water is breathtaking, and our guests were wowed. The Royal Ballroom was elegant and clean, though it felt a bit tight for our 200-person guest count and had a small dance floor. The staff did a great job setting up. One of the biggest positives was their effort to keep our ceremony outside despite some tricky weather. Plan B changed multiple times throughout the day, but they were flexible and made a call two hours before—allowing us to have a lovely outdoor ceremony on the patio. The Coordination Team: This is where things fell short. The onsite wedding coordinators did their jobs but offered little more. They operate within a narrow set of rules, and most non-standard requests were met with a “no.” If you want anything custom, you’ll need to go to the head of sales. We strongly recommend hiring an independent wedding planner. The coordinators are not substitutes for a full-service planner and do not assist with day-of timelines. Don’t expect personalized guidance—you’ll need to advocate for yourself throughout. Tasting & Food: The tasting experience was one of the low points. The food was poorly executed, and it left us anxious. That said, the kitchen completely redeemed itself on the big day. The wedding food was delicious, well-presented, and received many compliments from our guests. We’re grateful they delivered when it mattered most. Pricing & Contracts: Expect extra charges for nearly everything. Review your contract closely—Water’s Edge adheres strictly to what’s written, even when verbal communication during planning differs. This added stress and confusion. Their team is extremely contract-focused, so nothing should be assumed unless it’s clearly in writing. Hotel & Room Block: The hotel is beautiful but expensive. Managing the room block was more difficult than anticipated, and we were quoted one rate, but our final contract reflected another. This required a lot of back-and-forth to sort out and added unnecessary friction to the planning process. Final Thoughts: Despite the challenges, we had a truly wonderful wedding day. The venue was stunning, our guests had an amazing time, and everything ran smoothly thanks to their structured operation. Water’s Edge is definitely a “wedding factory”—they’re efficient, but not especially flexible or tailored. If you go in with clear expectations, a strong outside planner, and a willingness to advocate for what you want, you can absolutely have the wedding of your dreams here. We’re grateful for the memories and happy with how everything turned out in the end.

Not only does the beauty of the venue speak for itself, but the staff was what sold us. Lauren was a gem to work with from day one, answering any silly question I had, all the way up to the day of where she made our vision come to life and was the ultimate hype woman throughout the day.

OceanCliff Hotel 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
Newport, RI
  • Up to 200 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

OceanCliff Hotel is a premier waterfront estate in Newport, offering a seamless blend of historic 19th-century charm and coastal elegance. Set on 10 acres of rolling lawns overlooking Narragansett Bay, this iconic venue provides a breathtaking backdrop for everything from romantic summer sunset ceremonies to cozy winter weddings. Beyond its stunning Atlantic views, OceanCliff is renowned for world-class cuisine and a legacy of social excellence. Whether you’re hosting an intimate rehearsal dinner or a grand reception, it remains Newport's most enchanting destination.

OceanCliff Hotel was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we reached out, the staff, especially Alison and Taylor, were incredibly responsive and great listeners as we planned our special day. The venue itself is open, stunning water views, breath taking sunsets and beautifully appointed with fireplaces that created a warm and cozy atmosphere. We got married last month, January, and our guest could not stop telling us how much they loved the fireplaces and views. I chose this venue because of the fireplace, views, and chandeliers. I scheduled our ceremony during the sun set and it was more than I could have ever expected. The food was amazing, and the entire team worked efficiently to ensure our wedding day went off without a hitch. I did add the clam chowder and clam cakes to our cocktail hour and all the guests have raved about how good the clam cakes were! In my opinion they are better than Iggy’s. Yes, I said that! We couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting to celebrate our marriage. I highly recommend doing the ceremony and taking pictures during the sunset! We highly recommend OceanCliff Hotel to any couple looking for a stunning backdrop and attentive service for their wedding. Pick this venue now! This is your sign! :)

I had my wedding ceremony and reception at The Hills Labor Day weekend of 2022. The venue is beautiful and perfectly manicured. The new pergola was a nice touch. The reception space is beautiful from the minute you walk in the doors. The views in the main room are stunning and breathtaking. The gold chairs and high ceilings make the room feel very grand and are a great setting for a wedding. Frank was very accommodating to all our requests. Allison was amazing- she anticipated and exceeded our needs and wants from the early stages of planning to providing helpful updates during the party. Everything ran smoothly and was handled eloquently. The staff was attentive and friendly. The Bartenders were smiling all night long. All my guests were complimenting the delicious food and gorgeous venue. The bridal suite was perfect for me and my wedding party to gather ourselves before the ceremony. The aesthetic and decor was very modern and clean. I had the best time at My wedding and I’m very Grateful to The Hills management & staff for providing the perfect space for us to celebrate with our loved ones. 10/10 highly recommend!

Georgina’s was a perfect venue! The food was fantastic, beautiful indoor/outside venue, amazing bridal suite space to get ready in, service was great, and Harold was incredibly supportive throughout the entire event. He kept us all on track, and made sure the groom and I always had what I needed. We dropped off things the day before, and it made for such a seamless day. Harold truly took care of everything! He even helped with the bustle of my dress! So many of our guests commented on how amazing the food was. We had the diamond package, and it included a Venetian table which everyone really loved!

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.

We worked with Chelsea, as our wedding planner/day of coordinator and she was AMAZING! Chelsea made our wedding weekend smooth, easy and stress free. Everything I could possibly need, she had. Everything was organized and beautiful. Chelsea could accommodate anything we needed and had attention to all the details, big and small. Her support staff was also organized, and knew exactly what to do and how to help. There was no question of where to be, when, or what we needed to do. As the bride, there were no issues on my wedding day, as far as I knew. And if there were, I know it is because Chelsea and her team took care of it. They have a golf cart to bring the bride from the hotel to the close outdoor reception place, but it is a nice little ride to ensure you stay clean and don't have to walk. There was champagne to celebrate at the end of the isle after we got married for us and our bridal party. They brought our cocktail hour snacks and drinkswater outside to us to enjoy while doing formal photos so we didn't miss out on anything! The planning stages with Chelsea were easy and coordinated. She had all the questions to ask, and was prepared for anything we could need. We had a few meetings leading up to the wedding where we organized all the finer details to ensure the day went off smoothly. We also had a welcome event and brunch at the venue, and it was great to get multiple different spaces to be able to host those events in a variety of areas within the hotel grounds.

Weeks later, we're still absolutely gushing over the Mansion! It was the perfect venue for our wedding. They had it all, from phenomenal staff to luxurious facilities, not to mention the stunning views. We had the pleasure of working with Alexandra(Alex) we could not have asked for a better person! Alex knew all of our family members and bridal party’s names, and was extremely personable. She went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of all night. She brought me a snack before the ceremony and continuously brought me my water all day and night (without me asking)They truly make you feel like a VIP throughout your entire day and their top notch team(along with our caterer David Alan) ensured that everything ran smoothly behind the scenes. In the early stages of planning we worked with Jessica Hess and she is extremely helpful and communicative. The mansion truly felt like home for the day. We hosted our ceremony on the vista , cocktail hour was on the terrace, and we had dinner in the East ballroom. Guests were in awe of the estate (we also lucked out with absolutely perfect weather), and how every detail was perfectly executed. Our special day was truly a dream and felt like it was out of a movie! We could not recommend the Wadsworth Mansion enough, and can't wait to return for future celebrations. It's definitely well-worth the investment and would 10/10 recommend hosting your special day here!
