The Wedding Website of Emily Castle and Michael Seitz
Newport is a popular summer vacation and wedding destination. In addition, the Newport Jazz Festival is the same weekend as our wedding. We recommend booking accommodations as soon as possible. We have secured room blocks at a few hotels in Middletown (~10 minutes north of Newport) and South Kingstown (~25 minutes west). These rooms may fill up, and will be released if not filled by late June 2023 - so book soon! All are refundable unless you cancel last minute. The Pell and the Sonesta allow for one night bookings. There are two night minimums at all other hotels in the area - we can't wait to see you Friday night at the Welcome Party! There is a wide range of luxury hotels (Hammet's, The Brenton Hotel, Forty 1 North), cozy bed and breakfasts (Serenity Inn, Cliffside Inn, Francis Malbone House), and AirBnBs/VRBOs for those who would like to stay right in Newport. We recommend checking out Newport Lofts (https://www.thenewportlofts.com/) for apartment and cottage options.

Flight

Boston Logan International Airport (BOS)

Boston Logan airport is ~90 minutes driving to Newport. Providence airport is closer, but we recommend Boston since it will likely have more affordable and more direct flights from most destinations. From Boston, you can rent a car and drive to Newport, or take the Amtrak to Providence and rent a car, take the ferry, or Uber/Lyft from there.

Flight

Rhode Island T.F. Green International Airport (PVD)

PVD is the closest airport to Newport (~45 minutes driving or ~1 hour ferry), and is a great option for those looking to minimize driving time from the airport. Note that flights to Boston will likely be more convenient and affordable.

Train

Amtrak - Northeast Regional

For those traveling from Boston, Stamford, NYC, or anywhere else along the Northeast Regional line, you can take the train to Providence and then Uber (~45 minutes) or take the Seastreak Ferry (~1 hour)

Rental Car

Rental Cars

Rental cars are readily available at the airport if you are flying in to Boston or Providence (be sure to reserve ahead of time). Parking in downtown Newport can get a bit crowded but you can usually find a paid spot. Free parking is available at the ceremony and reception venues and all of the room block hotels. There are public busses and water taxis for getting around Newport, and Uber and Lyft are fairly reliable, so cars are not required.
