Question

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Our wedding will be outdoors, surrounded by the natural beauty of Blithewold Mansion. Please dress accordingly and keep an eye on the weather, as we’ll be celebrating rain or shine! We’ve got a backup plan in place just in case, so no worries if the forecast isn’t perfect.

At the moment, transportation is TBD. There will be parking at Blithewold Mansion, however, we encourage anyone spending the night in Newport or surrounding areas to Uber.

Answer

For woman, we strongly encourage mid-length or floor-length dresses (think soft fabrics like chiffon, silk, or lace, in light or floral patterns that complement the garden setting), delicate jewelry, elegant clutches, & a shawl or wrap for the evening, & closed or open-toe block heels. For men, we strongly encourage light or dark colored suits or tuxedos, dress shirts (feel free to wear subtle patterns or textures), ties or bowties & dressy loafers or oxford shoes. To note, the event will be held outdoors, so please consider the weather and terrain when selecting your shoes. Please avoid casual clothing such as jeans, t-shirts, or sneakers!
