    My brother held his wedding here and it was beautiful! The interior is stark white but you add color with lighting and table settings. Plenty of parking out front and the ceremony was held out back with a beautiful view of the water, bridge and sailing boats. The rehearsal and day after the wedding were gorgeous but the day of was windy and overcast/foggy. We made the best of it though! After a short ceremony, cocktail hour began and so did the drinking. It was open including top shelf and the bartenders did a fabulous job of letting the drinks flow... Lets put it this way - everyone started drinking at 5pm and was pretty much done by the end at 10pm. Yup - DUNZO! One of the previous reviewers complained about the food but I had the opposite experience. The appetizers were pretty good and my entree of fish was soooo moist and delish! The app to the entree was scallops and everyone raved about that. Unfortunately I was too busy dancing to realize that the desert was outside of the reception area so I never got a chance to try the cake or the sundaes!!!! This is a great place if you're looking for a modern, minimalist place where you can add a lot of your personality through colors and other accessories.

    I attended a wedding reception here last night and I thought the venue was alright. My first impression was not good considering I had to dodge mad geese landmines in my heels...not a pleasant sight before you go eat. The inside of the hall was what I expected, a typical atmosphere.I wish they had some more seating in the waiting area because not everyone wants to stand around for an hour. I liked the lighting it was nice, the food was OK .. it wasn't bad but it didn't blow me away either. Overall I think it was an average spot....

    Belle Mer is a beautiful venue!

    I got married in the water salon on 4/25/2015. My event specialist was Sara. Sara is amazing. Previously we had Jessica as our specialist and she just wasn't the best fit for us. Sara went above and beyond. Top customer service skills and very professional. My special day was as flawless as it could be. Highly recommend the belle mer!

    Beautiful wedding venue. If I don't say so myself, this was and is still one of the most beautiful venues I've ever visited for a wedding, nevermind that it was my own ;) Guests were gushing over the beauty of the venue, even though it was very foggy towards the end of the evening. Still a beautiful place. We got married on a Thurs in June 2018 due to cost differences and some perks for booking with them. The food was amazing, both per us and our guests. They really do live up to the reputation they have for amazing food. Stephanie was our coordinator and she was the best. She was super responsive, even when she wasn't in the office, and made sure everything got set up and returned. We had a lot of DIY and personal items as part of the décor. I liked that we didn't have to go with them for the wedding cake if we didn't want to, although we did because again, cost and they have great quality. They don't hold you to using any specific vendors or lodging places etc. either. The only thing I was wish was different was being able to bring our own food and drinks into the loft while getting dressed, and not being able to buy and bring in our own candy bar supplies or s'mores supplies. You can do that there, but they want you to buy theirs. Every person involved in our special day made everything absolutely seamless and we were attended to hand and foot. We never felt confused or thrown to the wolves. Flawless, beautiful day, and Longwood played a huge part in it. Thank you!!

    My new dream wedding venue! (Maybe if I win the lottery!) I was a guest at a wedding at the Belle Mer Island House this weekend and every aspect was perfect. It was extremely well organized starting with people in the parking area directing guests to the proper area. The ceremony was outside with the water being the perfect backdrop. After the ceremony we moved inside for cocktail hour with THE BEST appetizers you could imagine and top shelf liquor available. I'm talking an antipasto salad bar with fresh meats cheeses and marinated vegetables, lamb shanks with chutney, Tuscan chicken skewers, 3 kinds of flat bread pizzas, etc...and everything was amazing. Taste, presentation and service were all top notch. The servers' trays were never empty for long, and people were constantly coming around collecting any empty plates, glasses or other misc trash. And the bartenders were quick, friendly and on point with their drinks. Great cosmos! They stayed very organized and on schedule letting everyone know when the dinning room was open and shut the bar down temporarily so everyone would take their seats for the wedding party entrance. Even then we had an amazing young man waiting on our table bringing us drinks, confirmed our names and what meal we ordered and made sure we had everything we needed. The courses were brought out 1 table at a time with 5 servers all coordinating the timing of setting each plate down together then all walking away in a single line hands behind their backs. The little details that really made this venue leaps and bounds above other places I've been. And the beef dish I had, you could cut it with a spoon it was so tender! With fresh perfectly cooked vegetables on the side. I've been to plenty of Newport restaurants and this was one of the best dishes I've had. Throughout the night we were able to enjoy the amazing views and impeccably manicured grounds outside watching boats sail by, a beautiful sunset and great view of the Newport Bridge. The dinning area had large glass doors which they opened after dinner letting the fresh sea air in and access to grass steps leading down to the water where you could sit on the wall and enjoy your drink or sit by the fire pit and smoke a cigar. I could go on forever about all the details. It was the perfect summer wedding venue and I hope the bride and groom were just as thrilled about their experience as I was!

Erica responded to my inquiry within hours and got on the phone with me to make sure she and her team were a good fit. Once our conversation was over, I knew with no doubts that I wanted Infinite Events to take part in our day. I then met with Casey who instantly made me feel like I am the only bride that matters. I worked closely with Casey for the remaining 2 months and she was always a phone call away if I had any questions. Casey was present to assist during our rehearsal and made sure everything ran smoothly. On the morning of the wedding, Casey showed up to my hotel room early to assure that everyone was getting ready on time. Infinite Events even had an assistant with my husband and his groomsmen to make sure they knew where they had to be and when. Casey and her assistants stayed with us during our first look and then split up to go to the church to welcome guests and make sure everything was set up the way I wanted it. Casey was with me every step of the way during the reception and even made sure my lipstick was freshened up before the entrance. She also expertly handled any issues that came up, letting me enjoy the ceremony and reception stress-free. I truly can't speak highly enough about Infinite Events and how they made our day perfect.

    Our friends Dan and Amy introduced us to the Grace Foundation, since one of the founders was a…read morefriend of theirs. I have joined this annual beach party a few times now, where the focus is to raise money for scholarships for young people that have been affected by this terrible disease. The foundation started when the parents of Grace went through her illness as a child with pediatric cancer. Grace was 20 days past her 1st birthday when she was diagnosed with a rare form of pediatric cancer. One night Anthony arrived home and there was no power in the house. He realized they hadn't paid the electric bill in months. He began to wonder how a parent or teen dealing with cancer can remember all the details when applying to college AND still fight cancer. The National GRACE Foundation's College Awareness Program was established to provide the assistance that young cancer fighters and their families need to navigate the college admissions and financial aid process, all for free. It is Anthony and Michelle's way of giving back to all the people that helped them and their family when they needed it most. The beach party at the Narragansett beach pavilion is always a great time to have some great food, a few drinks, enjoy the company of others and hear the stories of children that have succeeded on their fight agains cancer, all while overlooking the sandy and ample Narragansett town beach. A beautiful setting for sure.
