FAQs

Question

Do you have hotel recommendations?

Answer

Check out the "Travel" tab! We have a limited room block at Hotel Viking with a discounted rate, available first come first serve, so we recommend staying there to be in the middle of the action! There are also budget-friendlier options at the Residence Inn and Hampton Inn in Newport Middletown, where wedding transportation will also be provided. Airbnbs, VRBOs, and Newport Historic Inns are also excellent options. In addition to these, some other great options in downtown Newport are: Newport Marriott Hotel, The Brenton Hotel, Hammett's Hotel, and Forty 1 North.

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Formal invitations will be mailed in May with additional details! Please RSVP by June 23rd.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Yes! Dress codes are listed alongside each individual event on the 'Schedule' tab. Friday events are Cocktail Attire and Saturday events are Black Tie.

Question

What is cocktail attire?

Answer

Think semi-formal and stylish. Jackets or coats, no tie. Dresses, jumpsuits, suits, or dressy separates are all great options. Feel free to add some personality with color, texture, or accessories—but keep it polished and party-ready!

Question

What is black tie attire?

Answer

Tuxedos, formal dresses, and dressy separates. Dresses and hemlines should be midi-length or longer. We want guests to feel like their best-dressed selves and invite you to “wear that thing you’ve been dying to wear but haven’t had the right occasion for it.” Summery and over-the-top is encouraged! For shoes, note that the ceremony will be held on short grass & flip-flops will be provided for late-night dancing.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Due to the limited capacity at our venues, children are unfortunately not invited. Thank you for your understanding & please send all of our love to your little ones!

Question

Can I bring a date / plus-one?

Answer
