FAQs
Question
Are children invited?
Answer
As much as we love your little ones, this is an adult only celebration. We hope you enjoy a night off and celebrate with us!
Question
Where should we stay?
Answer
We recommend traveling in packs! If you have other friends coming, we suggest getting a group house via Airbnb or VRBO. For a hotel stay, we recommend the Newport Marriott, Wayfinder Newport, or the Atlantic Beach Hotel. Additionally, we have a room block at Residence Inn in Middletown (no code required).
Question
Parking? Transportation?
Answer
Parking will be available at Our Lady of Mercy Chapel. The Chapel shares its address with Salve Regina University’s main administrative building (100 Ochre Point Ave, Newport RI). You may park on the street or in any parking lot on campus (even those lots designated for students, faculty and staff). Parking will also be available at The Eisenhower House, if you choose to drive yourself. Transportation will be provided from the ceremony to the Eisenhower House. At the end of the reception, transportation will be provided back to downtown Newport. We will be making a few stops in central locations based on where our guests are staying. Check back for updates on bus stop locations!
