Claire and Caleb's Mount Hope Farm Wedding | The Newport Bride

Claire and Caleb’s Mount Hope Farm Wedding

Caleb and I (Claire) met in January 2008 during my freshman year at Roger Williams University. Caleb was roommates with one of my best friends from high school who was just returning from his study abroad session in Italy and invited me over to a party. As soon as I walked into their apartment, I saw Caleb for the first time and he had the most captivating smile. We didn’t talk that night besides being introduced to one another, but after I got home from the party, I called my mom and told her that I had met the guy I was going to marry. After that night, we started talking and developed an incredible relationship full of Boston Bruins games, Big Macs and Nantucket beach days. Six years later, Caleb proposed at the Beavertail Lighthouse in Jamestown on a beautiful February day.

The Aldrich Mansion – Venue for a Queen

Overlooking the beautiful Narragansett Bay in Warwick Rhode Island, the seventy-room, French chateau sits on seventy-five acres. Just north of Newport, the Aldrich Mansion has the luxurious feel of Newport but a bit more space and quiet that a venue right in downtown. Inside the mansion events are held in the Aldrich and the Ivory dining rooms, each holding 100 people. An enclosed porch can hold an intimate group of 30.Tented events on the lawn can hold many more guests.

The architecture of the Aldrich mansion provides enough decoration to keep visitors occupied for hours. Add your own flair, and guests will never be bored. The Aldrich Mansion is owned by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Providence and couples have the option of using the Catholic Chapel on sight. Like the main house, the chapel has rich ornate detailing that barely needs decoration. If you are looking for beautiful lawns, ocean views, and a gilded age mansion for the wedding of your dreams, Aldrich house is the venue for you.
