Hotel Providence

elf is stunning and unique. Our ceremony was held on the gorgeous rooftop terrace, where staff accommodated our request for a rooftop bar for before and during the ceremony. The main dining room was the perfect location for our reception. With access to the restaurant space and the courtyard, too, our guests had plenty of room to dance, drink, mingle, and enjoy the summer weather. Food & Drink One thing we were really amazed by was the amount of food and food options we had. From hearty food stations and appetizers down to much-needed late night snacks, the food was rolling out all night. The best part was that it was all delicious! The drinks were made well and readily available all night. Staff From the initial planning stages to the last song of our wedding night, Kate and Emily handled every detail and helped make our wedding perfect and stress-free. They coordinated drop off from other vendors, helped us make (and keep) a timeline, and incorporate fun extras, like a cigar bar and cornhole for the courtyard and a kids' activity table for the youngest guests. They answered our countless questions and always made us feel like we were the only clients they had. The waitstaff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, even making sure to deliver a slice fo wedding cake to the rooms of a few young guests who didn't make it to cake cutting time. The bartenders went above and beyond, even offering to go to a nearby liquor store to purchase the groom's beer of choice when it was revealed that it was replaced by a comparable beer that we had not requested. The Hotel Providence helped this visionless bride create the the most perfect setting for the most perfect day. It is without hesitation that I would not only recommend the Hotel Providence for any special event but would also happily host another event here in the future!

The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, the rooms are fantastic, and it's a great place for your reception (we had only the reception there, and the ceremony at a church). Probably the best part of the venue is the fact that there's a courtyard outside next to the dance floor. This meant that everyone who wanted to dance could be inside and do that, and those that wanted to just talk or enjoy the warm summer night could do that in the courtyard. We had guests coming up to us at the end of the night repeatedly telling us how much fun it was, and many made comments about how much they enjoyed the outdoor area. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

turned out wonderful and I was unbelievably happy! You get complete event exclusivity and it definitely shows. I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful the experience was. All of our guests raved about the food!!

food was great. Kate was able to get us speciality ordered velvet linen!

ithout her! Kate was amazing to work with, she is so responsive and knowledgeable. She made me feel so confident about our untraditional plans and was so encouraging the whole process! I’m so thankful for them and the rest of the staff at the hotel. This was absolutely the perfect venue for us :)

t. Kate, Emily, and the staff at Hotel Providence went above and beyond and we could not recommend them or this venue enough!!!

experienced and professional that they made sure nothing slipped through the cracks, even if we weren't on the ball ourselves.

enough about how fantastic the food was! The New England seafood station in particular was a real hit with our guests! The staff also made sure to put food aside for my husband and me, which was a nice touch to make sure we actually got enough food. I would definitely recommend working with Hotel Providence for your wedding!

cious, and the group tasting ahead of time was a great added bonus that you definitely shouldn't miss! We highly recommend Hotel Providence for your wedding!!

all things wedding. Her recommendations led me to most of the vendors and decorations I ended up using on the day of. She also guided me through the linen selection (which is provided by the venue) and her attention to detail ensured my wedding was beautiful. To top it off, the day of we all left without our bouquets and Kate personally drove them to the church (in MA, mind you) to save the wedding! The bridal suite comfortably accommodated my entire bridal party including 3 hairstylists and 2 makeup artists. We ate dinner and had our first dances in the ballroom with about 100 guests. Even now, almost 5 months later I still have people telling me it was the best food they ever had at a wedding. Hotel Providence also delivers when it comes to great wedding shots! Some of my favorite pictures from the day are dancing with my husband on their roof, or the shot down from their spiral staircase. Overall, Kate is easily the best in the game, and Hotel Providence will make your dream wedding come true.

are working with her 2. Flexibility - you have access to the entire hotel for the night and can set it up as you want/based on how many guests you have - there are multiple areas where you can have the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception in multiple different spaces which we found kept people energized and moving around throughout the night 3. easy for guests - we found that our guests really enjoyed being able to come into downtown Providence, stay at the hotel and walk anywhere they needed to throughout the weekend. We didn't have to pay extra for any transportation and the hotel includes complimentary valet parking for hotel guests. Thank you so much Hotel Providence - we loved our wedding!! :)

different spaces, but all near each other. At first, I was skeptical of this idea but when I toured the hotel, I loved this! It helps break up the night and keeps guests moving. It also keeps them intrigued about what happens next. The reception room was recently painted- it is no longer red! We actually enjoyed the red, but I think for some people this color can be too dramatic or dark. The room is now a light gray color and omg, it's a beautiful change. We liked the red, but we loved the gray. It makes the room feel so much bigger and it matches everything. Weddings are always expensive, but we found Hotel Providence to be reasonable compared to other venues, especially considering all that is included. We worked with Kate for several months as we planned all the details. She is very detail-oriented and helpful as you pick out all the details. She is so accommodating and wants to make sure your night is exactly what you want it to be. We added things here, took things away there, and there was no issue at all- she made sure everything happened. I would often have random questions during the process, emailing them to Kate as they came up. She is patient and kind, always responding within a couple days and making sure everything was clear. We met Emily the week of the wedding and was our day of coordinator, spending the entire wedding day at the hotel. She worked with her staff, making sure all of the decor was set up the way we hoped. We explained how we wanted our decor, but ultimately gave her control to make any executive decisions that made sense- for example, if something just didn't look "right" in one spot, feel free to move it to a better spot. We were not disappointed by how everything looked! It was all beautiful, and it was a perfect night. We stayed in a king suite and it was the perfect size for me, 3 bridesmaids, hair/make up artist, photographer, videographer, and the family members who came in and out throughout the day. We have received many compliments for choosing this venue. We are very grateful that we chose Hotel Providence (the first venue we toured actually!) We definitely recommend this venue, and would choose it over and over again.. Thank you!

really listened to everything we wanted out of the day and made it happen. Emily was amazing as the day-of coordinator and the entire day went seamlessly. Rob was an great banquet captain - we continue to hear from people how much they loved the food, and everyone had a different favorite item (and we still think about the buffalo chicken rangoons to this day). The bartenders were awesome, and the specialty cocktails were a hit. The rest of the team, including the chef attendants, servers, and front desk staff were all very friendly and helpful. The majority of our guests stayed at the hotel, and everyone enjoyed their rooms. The suites were very large, which made getting ready easy! The hotel itself is beautiful, unique, and in a convenient location. We really liked being able to move throughout different spaces during the wedding (we had our ceremony outside on the terrace, cocktail hour in the courtyard and main dining room + bar area, dinner in the ballroom, then returned to the courtyard and main dining room + bar area for dessert and dancing). It made for a fun and dynamic evening for us and all our guests. We knew we were in good hands with the team at Hotel Providence and highly recommend getting married there!

ence venues. Our wedding couldn't have been better - we are so grateful and highly recommend them to anyone looking to get married in Rhode Island!!

s extremely reasonable, the food was tasty, and they had plenty of space for us and our 30-40 guests. Would definitely recommend!

everyone involved, but Kate and the team at Hotel Providence were exceptional. Kate was able to easily navigate the ever changing COVID restrictions and keep us up to date on the potential impact to our wedding. On the day of the wedding Kate and her team executed every detail perfectly! The food was delicious, with all of our guests commenting on how great everything was. Hotel Providence has multiple spaces you can utilize, and we used the lovely terrace for our ceremony, the beautiful ballroom for dinner, and the Main Stage dining room with the courtyard for dancing and dessert. We loved the option of having multiple spaces for our guests to enjoy. It was the best day ever and and wouldn't have been possible without the Hotel Providence. Hotel Providence is truly the crown jewel of the Providence wedding scene!

ur day special. Kate is 100% a wedding pro in every sense of the word, plans for every possible thing that could go wrong, and has multiple backups. She is literally the BEST. I seriously felt like a queen here. If you want a beautiful wedding with plenty of options and a truly accommodating venue, Hotel Providence is the way to go. 100/10 would recommend.

he apps and food were phenomenal. (ESP the beef tenderloin!) The staff was great and kept everyone happy. Planning was so much easier the way Kate gathered up details for us. It was so nice to have everything all included and I didn’t feel like I got “a la carted” to death like I was finding with other places. There were also ample opportunities for pictures like the rooftop and city spots all around (and the staircase inside!) The suite I stayed in to get ready was like a mini apartment and was perfect for the day of. They also arranged for the groom and groomsmen to get ready in a conference room at the hotel. Everything was perfect!

y were offering Micro-Weddings. Kate was quick to respond to my inquiry and she put us at ease about planning a small wedding during a pandemic. Kate and her team were so helpful and put up with all of our questions and constant emails. We were thrilled with her professionalism, her enthusiasm and suggestions. The Hotel Providence was perfect for our re-imagined Micro Wedding. The decor was beautiful and the food was amazing. The rooms for getting ready and staying over were large, clean and perfect for what we needed. We took so many fantastic photos in the space and outside. The staff at the hotel were accommodating and welcoming. Kate also recommended a singer for the event, named Emily, and Emily was the icing on the cake. She was fantastic and truly made the event special with her singing voice and talent. Kate - thank you for all of your help last year. I hope weddings will soon be back to some kind of normal but you really know how to get through the COVID times and put on a remarkable event. Thank you!!

amazing from my initial email to our wedding date. She was on top of everything and knew exactly what to do. With COVID putting a wrench into most people’s plans Kate didn’t disappoint. She was able to work with us and safely design plans to promote socially distancing. Even while working limited hours she still answered tons of questions and made time for me to come in a few times for some extra detail meetings. Kate knows exactly what to do and how to alleviate any stress. Our wedding went off without any problems. Emily was also on top of everything. She was a perfect addition to our wedding day coordination. Kate and Emily flawlessly organized our wedding party and guests so that we had a perfect night. I couldn’t be happier with every aspect of our entire wedding day. Hotel Providence was the perfect location and provided gorgeous back drops for our wedding photos. The girls got ready in the Roger Williams Suite. It was the perfect size for us to get ready. It had all the necessaries for getting ready. The ceremony on the balcony is magical. The courtyard was perfect for cocktail hour. With the restaurant being closed we were able to use some of that space as well. Which was amazing. It was also really cool to be able to go up to the rooftop for pictures. I could just relive this day over and over. We loved everything about this location and can’t wait to go back for our one year anniversary.

me up to date with details, and making sure everyone was on zoom/had no tech issues/had good angle and could hear. I can’t say enough about the hotel and Greg and Kate who run the wedding. LOVE!!!

ce is stunningly beautiful and was perfect for our day. It was wonderful for our guests who were able to just flow from one area to the other and not have to worry about transportation. The food was outstanding, all of our guests ate very well as did we! What made it even better was the exceptional coordinator Kate and her team. Kate helped make our wedding planning process smooth and enjoyable. She was responsive to all of our questions and was always so kind and patient! I cannot recommend Kate and Hotel Providence enough. Thank you for making our wedding day absolutely magical!

y went perfectly and because of Kate and her team we were relaxed and able to enjoy it. Still so excited about how amazing our day was. I am so thankful we found this venue.

is wonderful, and did everything possible to make our day perfect), and ambiance, was incredible. I am so glad we chose this hotel for our reception - I highly recommend it if you would like something that is personal and with flair!
