Rhode Island or CT Tent Weddings

bethsupe

Hi-
I  really have my hopes set on a tent wedding or a unique venue ( really dont like reception halls) in Rhode Island or CT maybe in MA if it is near the water. I have looked at places such as Regatta Place in Newport and The Newport yachting Center- I also liked places like Linden Place - Im looking for as many suggestions as possible due to the fact that I live in FL so I really have one weekend in July to look at Venues. My fiance and myself are also interested in possiby renting a home and doing it all ouselves. Our budget is a middle sized budget - we are not over the top people, we want our guests to feel comfortable and laid back but have beautiful scenery to take in as well. If anyone has any suggestions for us to look at it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Bethaney S.

You may want to post on the locao boards for those areas.  this is an international board and you will likely not yield many responses here on region specific questions.

I'm not sure what exactly your budget is, but you could consider Shining Tides Weddings.  It is in Mattaposiett, MA and right on the water.  The venue rental fee is a kinda high, but it all goes back to the YMCA.  For good or bad, they have a caterer that you have to use.  The cater is supposed to be really good.  I just thought of it as one less thing I needed to pick out.  This is the second summer that they are doing weddings there "full-time", so there aren't too many photos out there yet of past weddings there.  IMO, it is tough to be the view and feel.

Here's a website that lists some outdoor places in the United States. Just double click on whatever matches best to what you're looking for and it'll become more specific..down to certain places in certain states. You can also add any suggestions too!
