Chapel By The Sea in 2012

Has anyone had there wedding there lately? I thought it looked so nice in the pictures. I drove by 2 days ago and I was REALLY REALLY disappointed. Everything is smushed together and looks so cluttered and the building and grounds for that matter need a LOT of work.

Plus I heard it is like $600? Is that true?

I was also wondering if anyone knew of any relatively inexpensive places to have the ceremony. We are likely going to do our reception at Chelo's on the water for a sunday afternoon wedding because it is fairly priced and I would like a water location and I just can't afford anything in Newport!!!

If anyone has any tips they are greatly appreciated! TIA :)

  • I recently went to a wedding here. And the place did need a lot of work. The paint was chipping and it was really kind of in need of a paint job and some TLC.
    I would believe that they probbaly do charge $600 because I am renting south ferry church in narragansett and that is what they charge.

    If you are interested in south ferry- the info is here:

  • Ceremonial Area - $15.00 for 3 hours

    From the RIparks.com website under Colt State Park.

    I always assumed this meant the Chapel by the Sea.

    I did hear about Colt State Park.... I didn't know the price though, I will have to look them up. Another Chapel by the Sea is in Warwick! That's the one I'm talking about.

  • Ohhh.. lol, I was wondering b/c I just went there the other day and it didn't look so bad to me! For the price, it is an amazing set up! Especially with a backdrop of the bay. =)
