Atlantic Resort at Wyndham Newport

na :)

tay right upstairs. I can’t even believe we considered other options for our wedding day. Elaine was our wedding coordinator and was an absolute saint. Everything was perfect!!! We can’t thank you enough Elaine! Elaine went above and beyond. Our vendor for our donuts did not show up due to a miscommunication on their end and Elaine went out and replaced our donuts without us even asking. None of our guests even noticed there was an issue. Look no further for the venue of your dreams!

ceremony in the upstairs pre-function space. Elaine answered every question I had along the way and I knew that I could trust her team to execute the vision that I had. The pricing was the most reasonable pricing I have found, the hotel attached to the venue could not have been more convenient for our guests. The food was absolutely amazing and our guests are still raving about how incredible everything was. Elaine guided me and my husband through the entire wedding evening to ensure that everything ran smoothly. The venue is easy to work with and as a fellow event planner, I can tell you, you can count on Elaine and her team. The Atlantic Resort made my wedding dreams come true!

as going to be held. Anna was so accommodating, always greeted me with a huge smile and hug, just made me feel so special. The venue is stunning, every single staff member went above and beyond any request or question I had. 5 stars just simply isn't enough!

ith filet actually cooked perfectly to order for each guest, a very large dance floor in the center of the room accommodating numerous tables around it, a beautiful onsite hotel offering many amenities and a friendly/helpful staff, and the best event coordinator in the business - Elaine Holder! Elaine goes above and beyond to make sure the big day is perfect in every way! She is experienced, professional, organized, detail oriented, kind, a great sense of humor, fun to work with, and available whenever the need arises. Whether it is during the planning stages or the actual day, Elaine will be there to meet all of your needs, expeditiously answer your many questions, and make sure that no detail is left undone. There are no worries with Elaine, she totally runs the show and makes sure the day runs according to plan. She is in contact throughout, coordinating all of the many vendors and staying on top of any issues that may arise. We have held two weddings at The Atlantic Resort Newport (Oct., 2016 and Oct. 2018) and both weddings were amazing! Elaine Holder is the ultimate wedding coordinator extraordinaire!! The Atlantic Resort Newport will definitely exceed even the highest of expectations and your guests will be raving for years to come!

dge and commend the effort and diligent attention that Anna gave to us, not only on our special day, but also over the year prior during the many months of planning. Anna was fantastic with communication, and always immediately addressed every question and concern that we may have had. The day before the wedding, I left detailed instructions about how I wanted the venue set up, and I was so happy and impressed when entering into our reception to see my vision perfectly executed. From the picturesque venue, the delicious food, fantastic service, and professional atmosphere, we have heard nothing but praise from our guests. We will undoubtedly recommend the Atlantic Resort to others in the future!

e of the coordinators Anna K. We planned our wedding over a period of 15 months and Anna was there to support us every step of the way. She quickly responded to any of our questions, and provided vendor recommendations where we needed them. She's so loving and made the process really easy. The night before the wedding we hosted a rehearsal dinner for 50ppl in a private room catered from Johnny's the hotel restaurant. We all loved the food and enjoyed the fire pits and outdoor bar after dinner. The next day my bridesmaids, glam team and I prepared in the huge bridal suite at the resort. Anna used the decor we brought to design the upstairs reception room while we all got ready. We didn't have to lift a finger and everything was in perfect place. Our ceremony was outside under the pergola and the photos were absolutely stunning. Our reception was so much fun and the food was to die for. During cocktail hour we had a raw bar, pasta station and passed food and our guest couldn't get enough. The waitstaff and bartenders were so kind and attentive, our guest enjoyed the whole night. The night ended with late night food, a last dance then we headed to Johnny's bar until it closed. Before heading back to MA my husband and I stayed for an extended weekend and didn't want to leave. Thank you to the Atlantic Resort team for helping to make our dream wedding come true.

ed her, very knowledgeable and kind. The staff was also truly amazing. They took care of all the details that I requested for my wedding day. They truly brought life to the wedding of my dreams! The stunning location, the convenience of a hotel, onsite restaurant (where I was able to have my rehearsal dinner), the delicious food and remarkable staff are only a few reasons to book your wedding (or any event) with The Atlantic Resort. The value is unbeatable! The second we walked into the ballroom, we fell in love and new we had made the right decision!

eks ago and I'm still getting compliments on the food and venue. The room is gorgeous. The staff couldn't have been more helpful. Everything I asked them to do, they did and more! Anna recommend fabulous vendors (even my bridal dress vendor!). And how convenient to have a hotel attached. The staff at Cambria was equally amazing, they helped with all our stuff, brought extra chairs to the bridal suite, so on and so on. The best part is all the compliments every guest is and continuing to say. Most were the whole weekend with us and couldn't have nicer things to say about every single detail . The outside area is fun and easy for entertaining. We had a rehearsal Friday (it was perfect), followed by our amazing wedding on a Saturday. THANK YOU ANNA and Atlantic Resort for making our dream wedding come true

f made sure everything was perfect and saw to it that all the guest where enjoying the wedding. Chelsea went above and beyond to make sure our night was special, she did it all. Definitely would recomend this as a venue for any special occasion. Food was delicious location was amazing overall amazing place. Ana and Chelsea made our wedding dream come true and we had the best time of our lives.

during Labor Day weekend and the weather was amazing! The food at the wedding was the best we have ever had and guests said that they really enjoyed the hors d’oeuvres! If your looking for an amazing experience with great vues this is your place!

s wonderful to work with throughout the whole process. She helped us to plan the most amazing reception, and made us feel so comfortable on the wedding day. We wish we could do It all over again!

red any questions that we had or resolved any issues that arose. She was extremely flexible and tried to make the entire wedding planning process as stress-free as possible. I will say, however, that there is a bit of an issue with communication here though. We were a bit surprised when we were told that we had to speak to different people at the venue to book shuttles and room blocks and that it could not be arranged through Elaine. We dealt with Barbara for that and the entire process was a bit chaotic and it did not seem like Barbara had a clue as to what she was doing. She wouldn't respond to emails and it often took several emails to get in touch with her. It would be beneficial if they were able to streamline this process and do all of this through the wedding coordinator. We were thrown a curveball a few days before our wedding when Elaine experienced a death in the family, a few days prior to our wedding. We were assigned a new wedding coordinator, Chelsea, just days before our wedding. We were assured that she was experienced and that everything would be communicated to her. Prior to the rehearsal, we were not contacted by Chelsea at all. The day before the wedding, at the rehearsal, Chelsea told us that she had been in the business for years, that she usually works behind the scenes in the office, and not to worry. While I understand there were extenuating circumstances here and that she was thrown into being our wedding coordinator last minute, it did not seem like she had the slightest clue as to what she was doing for one of the most important days in our lives. The day of the wedding, during cocktail hour, she was nowhere to be found. After finally tracking her down, a bit annoyed, I told her that we were told by Elaine that we were supposed to have our own cocktail waiter/waitress bringing us food and drinks. After being told this, she looked at me puzzled, as if this were a complete surprise to her. The venue could also stand to give more attention to the lawn in the ceremony area. The ground was very barren for our wedding and there were patches of dirt everywhere, making it so that dirt was being kicked up onto everyone’s shoes. A member of our wedding party had to ask them if they had anything to cover up a particular patch of dirt that the wedding party had to walk through for the ceremony. We were also a bit surprised that the Atlantic Resort never followed up with us to check to see how our wedding went and were disappointed that we were never given any of our leftover wedding cake. Aside from these mishaps, the rest of the wedding day seemed to run pretty smoothly. Overall, my wife and I would highly recommend the Atlantic Resort to any couple looking to have a beautiful wedding at a reasonable rate.

. Our event coordinator was Anna, who was lovely and helped calm our nervousness from the start of planning, all the way until the next day after the wedding. She was very detail oriented, organized, always remembered our requests with the wedding, every single time we met her before the wedding. She also helped plan out the order of events for the reception, and throughout the night was very thorough in making sure things were running smoothly. Nothing was rushed, and she coordinated with all other vendors to ensure a perfect night. We don't know what we would have done without Anna, she's the best! The wait staff are hard working, very professional and courteous. They made our guests feel welcome and had absolutely great service. The food offered by the Atlantic Resort is definitely top quality, and unmatched. We opted for an additional raw bar, which was amazing and loved by all of our guests, and there was plenty of food to go around for everyone. The entrees are also spot on, we definitely recommend the filet mignon. The food served the day of was exactly how it was during our tasting, which goes to show how well and consistent their cooks are. We also definitely recommend staying at the Cambria next door; Atlantic Resort works really well with them.

everything was. The day flowed so smoothly thanks to our amazing coordinator at the Atlantic! Anna was incredible to work with! She helped keep things running in a timely manner. She was always available throughout the planning process and even the day of our wedding. She was always prepared. She even brought appetizers into the bridal suite for my bridesmaids and I since we were fixing my dress bustle during cocktail hour. She got to know my family and was very passionate about her job! She always had a smile on and was the most pleasant person to work with! She even came around the morning after the wedding to check on my guests that stayed at the hotel to see how we were enjoying ourselves. The hotel was incredible as well. Everyone was friendly to all of my guests and made the check in process so easy. They were so accommodating and always available for their guests. If I could give this venue more than 5 stars I would!

h Swarovski crystals and an unparalleled view of the water. Our guests are still raving about the food! They work within your budget to find the right fit for you. We also held our rehearsal dinner here, which was flawless. I highly recommend booking today!

e windows was breath taking. Elaine and Katy were so accommodating and made me feel at ease throughout the planning process and the day of. Our family and friends were so impressed by the venue, the staff and of course the food! The fact that the venue is also a resort was so convenient for all of our guests, who loved their stay at the Atlantic Resort Newport. Our wedding was the the happiest day of our lives and we are so grateful for the Atlantic Resort Newport for playing a huge role in our special day. We would highly recommend the Atlantic Resort Newport to anyone getting married!

ry personable and fun, and by the end of our wedding, felt like part of our family. (We had a few interactions throughout the planning with Elaine, who was quite rude and unprofessional towards us. Very glad we did not work with her.). We came down to the venue several times to view it (with our florist, with our families, etc.) and Anna welcomed us every time, even if it was last minute. Anna worked very well with all of our vendors, including our wedding planner (we got a month-of planner). VENUE: we had the downstairs ballroom, which was spacious, well decorated with hues of golds, neutrals and creams, which is nice and celebratory for a wedding. We had 135 guests. We placed the DJ booth at the mirror end and our sweetheart table on the opposite end near the curtains. We closed off the curtains during the reception and had the space next to the windows between the curtains as a lounge area with high and low tops. This is where we had our family photos done, and our ketubah signing before the wedding. CEREMONY: Our ceremony was outside on the lawn during the sunset, which is an OUTSTANDING view - stunning piece of property - brides/photographers, you will NOT be disappointed with the photo opps during sunset! The main drawback is that you can see the parking lot and cars during your vows , and there is no privacy between when the bride walks out of the resort to walk down the aisle, which is kind of a long walk, so I had my florist bring in tall hedges so that my guests wouldn't see me taking the walk from the resort to the ceremony site. This lack of privacy between the ceremony site and the parking lot is why I gave Atlantic Resort 4/5 stars. We had a Jewish wedding so our florist used the pergola as our huppah and decorated it, which was nice to not have to bring in our own huppah. COCKTAIL HOUR: was held outside on the lawn, and the hedges that we brought in made a great photo backdrop. Unfortunately, we didn't get to experience much of the cocktail hour because we were taking photos during the beautiful sunset, but all of our guests were raving about the food. (We got Package 4 - the full package). RECEPTION: we had the option of going until 12:30 am (for an additional fee, which was totally worth it) which is hard to find in a wedding venue in RI or MA. Afterwards, we moved to the bar and had a few drinks there, although it does close early (1 am). The only change I would have made in our decor in the ballroom is I would have done lighting because I felt like it was too bright in the ballroom. FOOD: We had a tasting of the food months before our wedding and everything we tried was delicious. The food at the wedding was outstanding, and all of our guests were very satisfied (we had a big Russian Jewish wedding with a lot of picky eaters). BRUNCH: we hosted a next-day brunch, and Anna was very amenable to us using the patio at the restaurant. We had about 100 people at brunch and it was a perfect space, and also reasonably priced for brunch (we called around to other places in Newport/Middletown, and brunch at the Atlantic Resort was the best value and still a nice space). RESTAURANT: Food is very good, service was poor. Outdoor bar is great. BRIDAL SUITE: large enough for bridal party

connected us with a local priest who made our ceremony so special. We had our ceremony outside and had the most beautiful sunset and perfect weather. The set up in the ballroom from the linens to the chandelier, made all of our pictures come out amazing! I would recommend all couples to get married at The Atlantic Resort!

pinch myself throughout the reception to know that it was real! A brand new venue with amazing food, views, and beautiful decor, with a team of wedding coordinators that help you and run the event too! You won't find that anywhere else for this price! First off, the people- Elaine, Kirby, and Anna are seasoned, professional wedding planners who brought every vision we had to life. They became our friends during this process, and genuinely had our best interests in mind. They were honest and candid with what they felt that guests would find important, and what was just going to be a waste of $ (unlike other venues that would love to just squeeze every penny from you... they GENUINELY had our best interests in mind). Elaine in particular is just fantastic to work with, and is so experienced and kind. She would even send me messages of encouragement leading up to the wedding- like a good friend would do � The food is spectacular... I've been fortunate enough to travel and eat at some amazing restaurants in my life, and this was the most delicious and well prepared meal I've ever enjoyed at any wedding. It was something you'd expect from a 5 star restaurant! Huge pieces of filet and large lobster tails, all beautifully presented and served hot. All meals were out within 10 minutes of dinner service beginning, and one of the things I saw the most pictures of, were guests taking pictures of their CLEAN PLATES!!! The appetizers and cocktail hour were also like nothing I've ever seen... forget your typical cheese and cracker platter with a few carrot sticks thrown in- the charcuterie they put out had at least 6 or 7 different cheeses (like baked Brie... wow), at least 4 different smoked meats (prosciutto, mortadella, etc.), and countless exotic fruits and vegetables. This was a feast on its own! The passed appetizers were creative, hot, and delicious... clam cakes with shooters of clam chowder, lamb "lollipops," mini "blt's," and mini cups of Mac and cheese (our favorite, and one of those special requests that they made happen for us!) Then, as if this wasn't enough, the bar was incredible, and the bar manager extremely talented... the signature drinks were even better than when we sampled them at home, and everyone complimented how delicious every drink came out. The beauty of the venue and its location is obvious, but perhaps the best part of all of this is the value you receive for your money. Multiple people have told me it was the best wedding they've ever attended, and probably think it cost a fortune, being in Newport and right on the water. Honestly, this venue is comprised of a group of people that don't believe in nickel-and-diming you... no stupid hidden fees, no surprises... you have a generous timeline in which you can change your guest count for last minute issues, and the pricing is extremely fair and MUCH more reasonable than anywhere else in the area (do your homework for other nearby venues, and you'll see what I mean). In summary, if you want to get married in Newport, don't waste your time looking elsewhere besides this venue. You're going to pay so much more for so much less, and miss out on the perfect location. And three amazing people who love to help you make it all happen �

mmodation for guests (the Cambria hotel) and a restaurant to please your traditional American/seafood cravings within the same location. I visited the Atlantic last September to celebrate my cousin's wedding day, and within the first few moments I decided that this will also be where I will hold my wedding in a few years. I loved every second of my experience! Anna, the event coordinator, and her whole team were so accommodating of our needs and ran the entire night so flawlessly. The 2nd floor were they held the banquet was simply gorgeous. Very spacious, and not mention beautiful decors, glorious view, incredible food, and comfortable stay. All in all made for an unforgettable time for everyone.

LF.

extremely impressed. I highly recommend this amazing.

ell taken care of and didn’t have to sweat the small stuff. She made sure we had a back up plan for rain from day 1 and of course it rained, so she seamlessly moved us indoors and made sure that our baraat (indian wedding procession) went off without a hitch. I also have to mention two more things that made me love Anna and The Atlantic Resort even more: 1) They let us include our puppy in the wedding ceremony and 2) our cake was left undecorated and Anna made sure she decorated it before cake cutting so that it looked pretty in the pictures! Thank you Anna and team at The Atlantic Resort for making our day even more special with your friendly smiles and attention to detail! XOXO

ul but what really sold us on the location was her. She was kind and accommodating from minute one, so much so that we didn't take more than half and hour after our first meeting to go with ARN. When it came down to crunch time hours before the wedding, Kirby was there with Elaine and helping us iron out the details - between making sure that all of our guests had transportation to the small inane requests like asking for a single sweet potato for one guest. They had it all covered for us. The space was beautiful, the staff was friendly, the food was great. If we could do it all over again we'd still pick ARN.

is the best! Our guests could not stop talking about how much fun it was. Thank you Atlantic Resort!

staff amazing and timing on point. People kept telling us our wedding was an 11/10, even my husbands German aunt who is extremely difficult to please and tells it like it is. Dinner was on time which I've come to realize is not common at the weddings we've attended. Elaine is amazing and runs a tight ship - she was kind, organized and always upfront and transparent with everything. You can tell that she has seen it all and knows exactly what to recommend so the flow of the day works. Value wise what I loved about Atlantic Resort was that everything is included and clear. I'm an event planner in my 9-5 so I used an excel budget tracker that I use daily to compare total costs, and once I started adding in random costs at other venues we looked at (cost to have ceremony on site, cake cutting fees etc) we realized that the per person cost was actually a lot higher when it appeared to be less on the surface. Everything is included in the per person cost at Atlantic Resort so once you add tax and gratuity, you get your number and can easily figure out your total venue cost with # of guests. Aesthetics of a place are also very important to me and the ballroom is so beautiful and elegant (golds and whites) with hardwoods. I toured a lot of venues that had older carpeting etc and my color palate (gold, rose gold, and greens) worked so well in this bright stunning space. I was pretty crazy about the decor we brought and had a vision in my head of how i wanted everything to look and the way it was set up was perfect and elegant. If you're looking for a venue in the Newport area, I would highly recommend Atlantic Resort we had an incredible day and I can't stop smiling.

t and discuss anything I needed to. The venue is beautiful, clean, and new. The staff were all incredible. They made sure that my husband and I had time to eat some of the appetizers before we walked into our cocktail hour, and made sure we knew when our food was out so that it wouldn't get cold. The food was all delicious, all of our guests raved about being able to cut their Filet's without a knife. Overall, amazing wedding, venue, staff, and food. Highly recommend.

t all went smoothly. She is professional, kind, organized and makes sure you have the best day for both you and your guests. The venue is stunning. We loved the upstairs room for our reception and were stunned at how beautiful it was all done up. The food is off the charts. We heard nothing but compliments on the appetizers, especially the lobster rolls and bakes brie. The dinner was great and we heard from many it was the best baked stuffed shrimp. Filets were cooked to order.... There isn't one thing that we didn't LOVE about this place
