Newport, Rhode Island Honeymoon!

Ever consider Newport, Rhode Island as a honeymoon choice?  A few years ago (and then some) back my friend Cindy was married in a Newport, Rhode Island mansion!  What a beautiful place for a wedding ceremony and reception!  As the days approached the wedding we walked around this cute little town, up and down hilly streets filled with quaint little colored homes.  In and out of adorable restaurants eating seafood and enjoying cocktails while we talked about the upcoming wedding.  Below are some of the statistics of this adorable area!  Check it out!


Newport, Rhode Island
Honeymoon like the classic couple you are by mansion-hopping, history-trailing, cliff-walking, and four-poster napping in this picturesque Rhode Island town that's home to New England's bluest blood.
Average high: summer, 78; winter, 39 (okay, not so hot in winter)
The resort: Stay in a mansion: The Chanler at Cliff Walk (TheChanler.com), which was built in 1865, is now a 20-room boutique hotel. Take in its sweeping Atlantic views and dine on the superlative seven-course chef’s tasting menu (with wine selections) at the property's Spiced Pear restaurant.
The hot spot: A day trip to beautiful Block Island offers a Martha's Vineyard-type experience complete with beaches, bike trails, lighthouses, and traditional stone walls but without the crazy crowds.

Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis Childhood Home Newport Rhode Island
Hammersmith Farm is a Victorian mansion and surrounding property located in Newport, Rhode Island, and was the childhood home to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. The property hosted the wedding reception of Jacqueline and John F. Kennedy. During his presidency, Kennedy spent enough time at Hammersmith Farm that it was referred to as the "Summer White House." Notably the Peace Corps Act of 1961 (Public Law 87-293) was signed into law by Kennedy in late September 1961 during one of his stays.
