Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Please plan to arrive to Ocean Cliff at 5:00pm. This will allow time to park, take photos and find your seats so we may begin the ceremony on time. The Safari Room bar will be open if you would like to come early! Please be aware, Ocean Cliff is about a 15 minute leisurely drive from downtown Newport and about a 25 minute drive from Middletown. Account for tourist traffic at this time of year.

Question

Is there parking at the venue?

Answer

Yes, complimentary parking is available at the venue for those who would plan to drive themselves. Should you decide to leave your car (planned or unplanned) you may do so and pick it up the following day.

Question

Will transportation be provided?

Answer

We anticipate our guests will be staying/ traveling from a variety of locations, making a central pick up location challenging. We encourage Uber or Lyft to get to the venue. Upon the end of the reception, there will be shuttle busses to The Fastnet, Newport Harbor Island Resort Hotel and the Howard Johnson Inn Middletown

Question

Can I have a +1?

With that in mind, the guest list is intended for those explicitly listed on the formal invitation.
