FAQs

Question

What is the Attire?

Answer

Formal Attire Suits & Dresses - please keep in mind we will be on the lawn (plan your heels accordingly!) and by the ocean.

Question

Where is the Ceremony?

Answer

Our ceremony will be a 8-10 minute leisurely walk from the Eisenhower House, across the lawn and on the field closer to the ocean. Please plan your shoes accordingly so you're not sinking into the grass (ladies).

Question

Is the Wedding Outside? What happens if it rains?

Answer

Yes! If New England weather cooperates, we plan to have our ceremony and cocktail hour outside, and our reception (dinner & dancing) will take place under a beautiful white tent on the lawn. IF IT RAINS.... we have a fantastic rain plan to keep all of our guests dry and keep the festivities going as planned at the Eisenhower House location! In the event of inclement weather, please check back to our website, as we'll post updates as needed.

Question

Will there be parking at the venue?

Answer

Yes. While we encourage you to carpool or Uber/Lyft to the venue - there is parking available. If you choose to leave your car at The Eisenhower House overnight (planned or unplanned), park in the South Lot (the first large parking lot you see as you enter Fort Adams). Please note cars must be picked up by 10AM Sunday, 7/14.

Question

Can I bring my kids? Or a Guest?

Answer

It's so hard - we would love to celebrate with EVERYONE. Given limitations at our wedding venue, invited guests are limited to those on the envelope.

Question

It is our first time in Newport, what do you recommend we see while in town?

Answer

We listed some of our favorites on the 'Things to Do' tab! Also - refer to www.discovernewport.org as there are just too many options to list here. Enjoy exploring!
