FAQs

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

We are requesting guests wear formal attire. This means formal long or midi dresses, and suits with a tie. The ceremony will be held on grass, so please plan accordingly. If you're looking for inspiration, check out this Pinterest board: https://www.pinterest.com/alexkathryn1/dress-inspiration/. We suggest looking for something comfortable for both a warm day and cool night as it will be April on the water in Newport. Please feel free to reach out with any specific questions.

Question

Is there transportation provided?

Answer

Yes, we will be providing shuttles to and from the Hampton Inn & Suites Newport / Middletown (which is across the street from the Homewood Suites by Hilton Newport) and Newport Marriott Hotel and Spa on the day of the ceremony. We'd prefer no one drive to the venue so everyone can freely enjoy the refreshments at the reception. If you must drive though, complimentary valet services will be offered.

Question

Anything I should know for the festivities?

Answer

Yes. Newport is very strict with its alcohol consumption laws, and the bartenders at all events may check your ID. Please plan to bring your ID just in case.

Question

Is the ceremony outdoors?

Answer

Yes! Weather permitting, the ceremony and cocktail hour will be outdoors, and the reception will be indoors.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation.

Question

Are children welcome?

Answer

We love your little ones! However, we have decided to keep our wedding and festivities adults-only.
