Newport has every place and service for your dream wedding

At the Hotel Viking, on Newport, RI’s historic, glamorous Bellevue Avenue, they have been hosting enchanting weddings, and ultimate wedding weekends, for over 95 years. From rehearsal dinners to post-party brunches, the hotel’s experienced team of wedding and event professionals will ensure your all-important occasion is seamless and special in every way. Exchange your vows in the charming Kay Chapel, which dates back to 1858, then hold your reception in a high-ceiling ballroom or, for more intimate parties, in a room looking out over the courtyard, filled with natural light. The hotel’s Spa Fjor offers wedding services (and day-after couples massages), and the hotel serves a bridal afternoon tea that is perfect for bridal showers or a wedding weekend activity. Room blocks for guests are available.

Have your wedding ceremony, reception and rehearsal dinner at a venue as special as the two of you: the Newport Vineyards. Set on 100 acres by the sea, this distinctive space offers on-site event planning, farm-to-table menus and warm, friendly service. The backdrop for your outdoor ceremony or reception is jaw-dropping: vast vineyards and meadows, spectacular sunsets. The inside venue is the perfect marriage of refined rustic and industrial chic, with reclaimed barn wood walls and vineyard views through glass garage doors. Catering menus are made totally from scratch, with locally sourced ingredients. Event managers will work with your vendors, and the art-and-design team can customize personal touches, like wine split favors, custom wine labels and personalized chalk-art welcome boards.
