Travel & Stay
Two of the day’s three stops are in Newport. The ceremony and the after party are a few minutes apart in town, and the reception is one short shuttle ride up the island.
We’ll provide shuttles from a few downtown Newport hotels to Blithewold and back, with a stop at the after party. Shuttle routes and times will come with the invitation.
Prefer to drive? Blithewold has ample free parking on site, so there’s plenty of room for everyone.
Uber and Lyft cover Newport and Bristol reliably — expect 15–25 minutes between the two. For the ceremony, the church lot only has about 25 spaces and shuttles won’t run to the church, so Uber or Lyft is your best bet.
A few places we like. Stay wherever works for you, and book early. Hotels will fill up fast that weekend.
