FAQs

Question

Question

What's the dress code?

Answer

Black Tie Optional: Tuxes and gowns are preferred, but not required!

Question

What do you want for a wedding gift?

Answer

Many friends and family have asked for gift suggestions. As we already have (and already have received) many items to start off our new lives together, we are now focused on improving our new home in Marblehead. If you’re able, you can contribute as much or as little as you can. Your money will be going towards getting walls painted (inside and outside the house), new windows, new gutters, new bulkhead door, new doors, installing our new heating and cooling system, and the list goes on. We’re so grateful for each and every one of you!

Question

What will the weather be like?

Answer

The typical weather in November in Newport, RI is in the 50s. Our ceremony and reception will be inside but cocktail hour is inside and outside. We're keeping our fingers crossed for a nice sunny day :)

Question

Is there a trolley to the wedding from my hotel?

Answer

Yes, there will be a trolley taking people to and from Belle Mer from the Newport Marriott Hotel. The trolley will start taking people over at 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM and will starting taking people back at 11 PM - 12 AM.
