What is the attire for the wedding ceremony and reception?

Ladies, please wear a floor-length formal gown.

Gentlemen, please wear a black tux or suit with a black necktie or bowtie.

Can I bring a guest or my children?

We are so excited to celebrate with our closest friends and family! To keep our celebration intimate and meaningful, we kindly ask that only those formally named on your invitation attend. Thank you for your understanding.

What is there to do in Newport between wedding events?

Newport is known for its rich history, stunning coastal scenery, and is known as the “Yaching Capital of the World.” Consider visiting the other Newport Mansions (Elms, Marble House), shopping on Thames street, walking the iconic 3.5-mile Cliff Walk trail, or having drinks & watching sailboats go by at Castle Hill Inn.

Why can't I arrive before 5:45pm for the ceremony?

Because Rosecliff Mansion is an operating museum, it is open to the public until 5:30pm. They ask that event guests arrive at 5:45pm to be escorted to their seats.
