“From the moment we stepped into The Graduate Providence for our venue tour, we were awestruck by the beauty of the space. The colors, the ambience, and the ornate decor were exactly the aesthetic we were envisioning for our wedding. We felt immediately certain that we had found our venue. The deal was further sealed when we met Elise, the venue coordinator. She is the embodiment of the type of professionalism, enthusiasm, and wisdom you hope for in a wedding venue coordinator. She patiently answered every question we had, responded to every email promptly, and made us feel extremely at ease about our big day with the level of attention and respect she paid to our ideas. She took the time to understand exactly what we had planned and executed it flawlessly. She truly was a decisive factor in our booking The Graduate Providence. The Graduate Providence itself is an absolutely extraordinary location. We had our ceremony on the Parkview Terrace, our cocktail hour on the Atrium Balcony, and our reception in the Capital Ballroom. We loved how convenient it was to have our wedding in one place (and how convenient it was for our vendors, many of whom had worked with the Graduate Providence before and were thrilled to do so again) and yet, every space within in felt so unique. We also loved being right in the heart of downtown Providence, with so many restaurants, shops, and iconic sights conveniently close by for our guests. On top of that, every staff member with whom we interacted—from the front desk to the waitstaff—could not have been more delightful. They were so friendly and polite throughout the entire process. We had a pretty significant number of out-of-town guests, and all of them reported that they absolutely loved their stay at The Graduate, many thanks to the attentiveness and care of the staff. We truly cannot speak highly enough or more fervently recommend The Graduate Providence for your wedding day. It honestly defined our entire wedding day in the best way. We are eternally grateful to Elise and the entire Graduate staff for all of the hard work, care, and enthusiasm they put into making our wedding day a dream come true.”

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

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! :)”
