“We chose 360 East at Montauk Downs for our wedding and couldn't have made a better decision. From day one, Melanie Loban stepped in and treated us like VIPs, handling all the details we didn't even know we needed help with since we didn't have a planner. She was always quick to respond, genuinely kind, and found smart solutions whenever we had questions or concerns. The venue itself has this elegance that allowed our wedding to exceed all expectations and felt so us— understated but the natural beauty of the space did the work for us. Melanie's willingness to make things work and her incredible communication made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. We're so grateful to the whole team for making our day absolutely perfect. Couldn’t recommend this place and Melanie more. The food was also incredible — all our guests couldn’t stop talking about it.”

“Harbor lights was everything we could have asked for when it came to our wedding day! Julia was fabulous to work with and was very responsive and patient with all of our needs and questions. She was always quick to help or give her professional opinion and never once made me (the bride) feel like any question was too small or silly. Everything about our day ran smoothly and everything turned out STUNNING! The one hitch to our day (an agitated golfer) was promptly taken care of and corrected by management. Since our wedding, guests have told us they are still thinking about how beautiful harbor lights is and how amazing our wedding was. My husband and I could not recommend harbor lights enough!”

Regatta Place 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
Newport, RI
  • Up to 180 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Outdoor

Experience the height of coastal luxury at Regatta Place, a premier waterfront destination situated on Newport’s historic Goat Island. Steeped in Rhode Island’s rich sailing tradition, this exclusive venue offers browsing couples an unparalleled nautical backdrop for their wedding celebrations. Surrounded by classic luxury yachts and the sparkling Atlantic, the property provides a sophisticated atmosphere where sea breezes and harbor views take center stage. Whether you are hosting an elegant reception or a seaside ceremony, Regatta Place combines historic maritime charm with modern elegance for an unforgettable Newport wedding experience.

“Please just book Regatta Place for your Newport wedding!! We got married here in August, and it was truly the best day we could have imagined. All of our guests raved about how unique and gorgeous the venue was, but that's not even the main reason to book them. The team is OUTSTANDING and their professionalism and attention to detail made our day run so smoothly. We didn't have a planner, and honestly with the team at Regatta Place, we didn't need one. They answered every question, helped us coordinate everything from menu selection to day-of timeline and details, and on the day of the wedding, Emily and Maggie took care of everything seamlessly. The food is also incredible. We don't typically notice or care all that much about food at weddings, but Regatta Place blew us away. All of our guests kept commenting on how good the food was (even our hard-to-please foodie guests). The team was also incredible about accommodating allergies and dietary restrictions, with some of our gluten/dairy-free guests commenting on how they felt so much more well-taken care of than at other weddings where it feels like more of an afterthought. Finally, our favorite part of the night was the party! A band on the Regatta Place dance floor is so much more fun than a generic ballroom, and the patio at night, with the string lights and the couches overlooking the water, is just magical. Our dance floor was an absolute blast, and a huge part of that was the vibe of the venue. I will also say, with rain in the forecast up until the day of the wedding, I was nervous. But the team had such a good plan in place in case of rain, and in my opinion, Regatta Place has the best rain plan in Newport; instead of moving your ceremony indoors to a plain ballroom, they just close the sides of the tents, and you still get the on-the-water Newport experience. Do NOT let the possibility of rain stop you from booking this place! A couple of our guests put it best -- a wedding at Regatta Place feels fun and loose, yet organized and thoughtfully curated. It's the perfect way to showcase the beauty of Newport, while giving your guests a top-tier experience. We seriously can't recommend it enough!!”

“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! :)”
