Our celebration is Derby Chic meets Garden Party We're going for colorful, polished, and a little extra (in the best way). Think Derby meets a chic garden party at the country club: vibrant colors, tailored silhouettes, and effortlessly elevated style. Women: - Midi or maxi dresses that feel fun yet refined - Bright colors, soft pastels, or elegnat florals - Structured or flowy dresses/ skirts - Heels or dressy sandals preferred - Statement accessories encouraged Men: - Light suits or blazers (linen & light fabrics are perfect) - Fun plazers and suit colors - White or neutral pants - Open collar or tie-optional - Fun pocket squares or patterns encouraged Kind request: please skip black - we'd love the space to feel bright, fresh, & full of color!
Yes! We’ll have passed hors d’oeuvres, small bites throughout the evening, & a full open bar. Come hungry and ready to toast with us! 🥂
Cocktail style, mingling, relaxed but chic. Think summer party at a members only tennis club. No formal sit down dinner; food comes out throughout the night.
The event will take place on the porches and event spaces at the International Tennis Hall of Fame. It’s mostly covered + open-air, so dress for a beautiful Newport evening. It may get a bit chillier later in the evening.
The party runs 4:30-930 PM, but feel free to arrive anytime. We'll start the food and band will set up around 5PM. The earlier you come, the more time we’ll have to celebrate with you! We plan to head out to downtown Newport after for those who want to continue the party!
Absolutely, we’re planning to boune around in downtown Newport after the event for anyone who wants to keep the night going. The Landing, Clarke Cooke House, and other classic Newport spots are all nearby.
There are plenty of great hotels and Airbnbs in Newport. We recommend booking early, it’s a popular area and fills up quickly! On the 'Travel' tab we listed out some of our reccomendations. (If you want, I can add a short list of budget-friendly + mid-range hotels.)
