Belle Mer - A Longwood Venue

The sophisticated and contemporary atmosphere of Belle Mer is ideal for an elegant oceanside wedding, cocktail party, or gala. On the brink of Narragansett Bay, seven acres of groomed green lawns allow 1,500+ guests to mingle in luxury, eclipsing the Newport society experience. The Water Salon + Lawn at Belle Mer epitomizes the richness and sophistication of Newport by providing a perfect venue for private wedding ceremonies and lovely outdoor parties. Under the stars, the lawn is ideal for afternoon lawn games or team building activities. The Water Salon exudes sophistication and glamour, dressed in soft whites and shimmering crystal. The Salon, Newport's largest un-tented, four-season event venue, has a wall of glass doors with practically unimpeded views of the ocean, and warm weather means an organic transition through the completely open wall onto the lawn. The Island House, a short stroll down a shell walkway past lit fountains, offers a scene of relaxed elegance. The view of the Newport Bridge and the romance of the Vanderbilt Light post from the secluded space distant from the main structure add a delicate intimacy to any gathering. The big and open loft on the second level of the Island House is a great location for a break from an event. The space is ideal for a VIP lounge, wedding suite, or regatta observation room.
