We LOVED having our wedding at Machines with Magnets. Everything about the night and the planning was absolutely seamless. We got compliments all night (and still to this day) that the drinks were the best our guests had ever had. The cocktails are that of a thoughtful bar program — not just a wedding venue. The same goes for furniture, art, and ambience. If you're looking to avoid the generic wedding venue vibe, look no further. Machines with Magnets is the type of place you want to go grab a drink or hang out for the night — not a large wedding venue created to churn and burn events. We loved that we were able to bring in our own vendors from all over, rather than having to stick to a small list. There's also a beautiful apartment attached to the venue that we chose to add-on, which was a great thing to have to get ready and store our belongings. Would highly recommend using the projector!

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't recommend Little Gold enough! Des and Sierra are absolutely wonderful to work with and the venue they have curated is perfect. The interior design is so effortlessly elegant, while also maintaining versatility for any special occasion. I have worked with Little Gold on many occasions and each time, I am impressed with how professional, yet personal their communication style is. Also, I haven't even mentioned the location! It is extremely walkable and perfect for a true Newport event. I could honestly go on and on - but overall, Little Gold is truly a hidden gem you won't want to miss for where you should host your next intimate event!

The New Bedford Whaling Museum was an exceptional venue for our wedding. Their communication throughout the planning process was great - the staff were readily available, super helpful, and made sure all our questions were answered promptly. The venue itself was beautiful, clean, and the perfect size for our 133 guests. The only minor inconvenience was that we were not able to drop off our decor the night before the wedding, and I had to coordinate with friends to bring it on the day of since our ceremony was in Rhode Island at 3pm. The Whaling Museum needs to communicate that with the catering company because they only allow certain catering companies. Come up with a better plan. Overall a great venue!
