The Chanler at Cliff Walk is a 20-room Gilded Age mansion above the Atlantic on Newport's Cliff Walk. Weddings begin with a two-night buyout of the house, with terrace ceremonies and tented celebrations on the Cliff and Meadow lawns. The venue can accommodate up to 100 guests for your wedding celebration.

The story

A whole Cliff Walk mansion for the weekend

The Chanler at Cliff Walk stands on Memorial Boulevard in Newport, directly above the Atlantic along the Cliff Walk. It began in the 1870s as a summer house for the Chanler family and is now a boutique hotel of twenty individually decorated rooms. For weddings the whole house is taken over, so the couple, close family and friends share one building rather than a conventional hotel.

Weddings of up to about 120 guests fit within the property, while larger parties use a tent on the Cliff Lawn or Meadow Lawn.
