I missed Aldrich right after our wedding was over, it is the most stunning and unique wedding venue. Tony, Chef Al and the entire team are so professional and on top of everything I had no worries all day, just truly enjoyed, as did all of our guests! From the water views, the on site chapel, the stunning character of the grounds, the best wedding food ever, and so much more our guests were all blown away. We are so glad we found this venue for our once in a lifetime day

As soon as I saw this venue, I fell in love with it. Everything about it is STUNNING! Every inch of the mansion I beautiful, inside and out. It makes for amazing wedding pictures. It’s a really unique wedding venue in RI. It has a Catholic Chapel on-which makes things really convenient. Once the mass ceremony is done, you and your guests are able to immediately get the party started! The food was delicious. So many of our guests are still raving about the food and the beauty of the venue. Tony and his team are absolutely top-notch. Tony loves the Mansion and loves his job. Its evident in all of your interactions with him. He is someone you want on your wedding team. He takes the stress out of your day. He is incredibly responsive and helpful. The day went seamlessly due to him and his team. They made sure everything was taken care of. I couldn’t have been happier choosing the venue and having them on the team.

Our experience with Aldrich Mansion was wonderful. From the moment we stepped onto the grounds, we were greeted with a stunning landscape that set the perfect backdrop for our special day. The staff, particularly the coordinator Tony, were not only professional but incredibly warm and accommodating, making sure every detail was perfect.The venue itself was breathtaking. Guest after guest asked us how we found this venue and remarked on how absolutely breathtaking it is. The team went above and beyond to tailor the event to our preferences, ensuring that our dreams became a reality. The coordination and support provided before, during, and even after the event were outstanding, making the entire planning process smooth and as stress-free as possible.I can't recommend Aldrich highly enough for anyone looking for a breathtaking setting and exceptional service for their wedding.

Honestly, do yourself a favor and get married at Aldrich. I cannot sing the praises of Aldrich Mansion enough! Even before the wedding, the level of helpfulness, organization, and professionalism was outstanding. Tony, their event coordinator, was so easy to work with and got back to me so quickly on questions big and small. Tony helped us with so much, including coordinating the church documents so we could get married with our priest in the chapel (which is absolutely gorgeous and according to our photographer is dream to take photos in!) Chef Al was great to work with and the food was absolutely amazing - several of our guests said that it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. We went with the sirloin and the baked haddock which were both so fantastic, and the apps! Incredible! Cheg Al also let us bring some outside cultural desserts for our families and even worked with us to have pizza for our guests near the end of the night! We saved a ton of money by being able to bring our own alcohol, and the bartenders did a great job with our signature drinks. The staff both during the rehearsal dinner and the day of our wedding was so absolutely amazing - the day ran perfectly on time, they coordinated with our vendors perfectly, and they went above and beyond several times (most notably with my shoes - I asked our attendant if she could grab my sneakers upstairs in the bridal suite so I could change out of my heels and she not only did grab them, but also helped me take off my heels and put on the sneakers which in a wedding dress is harder than it seems!). We had plenty of room for dancing in the gorgeous foyer, and people LOVED the dessert room and the bar in the library. Zero notes. Zero complaints. Absolutely perfect day at the perfect venue.

If you want a stress-free, gorgeous wedding that you and your guests will remember, you must choose Aldrich. When I brought my then fiance and our family to tour the venue, all of our jaws DROPPED. It is truly an amazing site. From starting the planning process, to questions about each and every detail, to day of logistics, Tony and his team were more than willing to call, email, and meet in person to help me and my now-husband plan our perfect day. I would get pretty stressed about details, but Tony was always willing to take the time and help me work through my thoughts despite my busy schedule. Even the food tasting for wedding day great, thanks to Tony and Chef Al. They both sit down with you, talk about what you liked/didn't like, your vision, and help you make it come to life. They walk you through everything you need to bring, what papers to sign, etc. It was so stress free, all thanks to the entire Aldrich team. Not to mention, the venue is timeliness, classy, and has plenty of space outside and inside for guests. We used the Catholic chapel onsite, which was beautiful and a convenient one minute walk for guests to cocktail hour/reception. All in all, 11/10 reception venue and team that our guests continue to rave about a month after our wedding.

We had our wedding here and I can't even begin to explain how amazing this venue is. The mansion is a one of a kind, unique space with so much detail and character. The staff, bartenders, chef, and bridal assistants were all a pleasure to work with. Our family and guests recognized and commented on how amazing they were. They ensured everyone was taken care of, especially the mother of the bride and the mother of the groom. The food was delicious and the cake room was a magical surprise for everyone! Tony, the coordinator, made our wedding everything we hoped for and more! He is knowledgeable, pays attention to detail, responds quickly and is so professional. He made the planning process and wedding run seamlessly. The evening progressed smoothly and on schedule. We were able to relax and truly enjoy the magic of our special day. His experience and expertise as a wedding planner made all of our wedding wishes come true. The gorgeous mansion on the water was completely amazing. You and your guests will talk about it forever!

Cannot speak highly enough about our experience with Aldrich Mansion. From the initial consultation to every last detail the day of our wedding, the Aldrich team were consulate professionals who ended up feeling like family. Truly experts in the field, the team (led by Tony) had every scenario planned for and took all our questions and adjustments in stride. The venue itself is magnificent and the care with which the staff attends to each detail elevated our vision to the next level. Catering is provided on site by Chef Al, and guests are still raving about the hors d'Ĺ“uvres and main course selections. The fact that the chapel is available for use for Catholic ceremonies on site made our day incredibly convenient for guests who, once they arrived on site, didn't have to think about another thing for the rest of the evening. If you can, book here for an unforgettable experience!

Aldrich is an absolute DREAMMM of a venue!! From the gorgeous mansion and grounds, to the delicious food, to the absolutely world-class service. From our very first call, we could tell Tony (the wedding co-ordinator there) was someone we could really depend on to help us with all the craziness of planning a wedding from another country (Canada) especially amidst a pandemic. We really appreciate his extreme attention to detail, his prompt replies, incredible organization skills, and his thoughtfullness. We managed to snag a Monday date for our wedding which helped us save half the rental cost than it would be on a Sunday (our original plan). Every little detail at the mansion - from the schedule, to the decor organization, is thought about and carefully planned, so that on the wedding day you don't have to focus on anything else but your spouse. On the day of we were provided with 2 mansion liasons to help organize the wedding party entrance/cake cutting/vendor relations etc, and it was a huge help! Can't recommend the mansion enough!

If you are part of the LGBTQ+ community, do not bother with this place. It may look beautiful, but looks are deceiving. Friend of mine and her fiance (female) -- both kind Christian folks--reached out about having their wedding here and were told they were not welcome. Thankfully not all Christians choose to ignore the tenants of their own religion -- \"love thy neighbor\" and judge not lest you be judged\" -- so they'll be taking their business to a less hateful, homophobic church-affiliated establishment.

The Aldrich Mansion was the most perfect venue for our November 2021 wedding. The team there is incredible and I truly cannot say enough good things about Tony and Chef Al. They deftly navigated our year long postponement from October 2020 to November 2021. Tony is remarkably knowledgeable and has been doing weddings for a long time. His recommendations are spot on and he truly cares about his couples, their families, and the wedding they envision. We did a few unique things like dueling pianos for our music and no public cake cutting and Tony was supportive every step of the way. He answers questions patiently, always responds promptly, and is extremely accommodating. The food at our wedding was incredible. We have guests, seven months later, who still talk about the dessert room as the best thing they have ever seen at a wedding. Chef Al is also extremely knowledgeable and all his suggestions that he offered us were excellent. Amy and Jackie were our attendants throughout the evening and they were so helpful to us and our families. We actually got to enjoy Chef Al's delicious meal and spend time together as a couple thanks to their excellent work. One of the best things about Aldrich Mansion is not having to worry about securing catering, tables, chairs, and all the extras. Everything is included and you simply have to pick out your choices. This removes so much stress! We also had our mass at the chapel next door and it was so easy and convenient, especially for our elderly guests, to move a few hundred feet away for the cocktail hour and reception with no time gap. I could go on and on about this stunning venue and the incredible team so if you're reading this...run, don't walk, to book one of the most unique and beautiful venues in Rhode Island with the absolute best team.

My husband and I were married at Aldrich Mansion in November of 2021. Aldrich Mansion was the only venue we looked at and we immediately knew it was the place for us. As Catholics, we loved having our ceremony at the on-site OLP Chapel, and our reception immediately after at the Mansion. The property is gorgeous, centrally located, and on the water. The food and service were exceptional, and we loved having the whole property to ourselves for our special day. Tony, the Mansion’s Coordinator, is like no other. He was so professional and organized which gave me a lot of peace of mind! I knew if we asked him for anything, it would be done to our specifications, and we trusted him to lead us along the way when we needed guidance. In addition, Chef Al was a pleasure! We enjoyed our meetings with him and loved how everything was executed on our special day. I cannot say enough good about Aldrich Mansion, and would recommend this venue to anyone for their wedding day!

Tony was so easy to work with, he was always quick to respond to our countless emails as we figured out the logistics of the day. He is very knowledgable, organized, and charismatic. He knows weddings inside and out, and works hard to make the ceremony and reception run smoothly and efficiently. The mansion and chapel are breathtaking. As soon as we walked into the foyer of the mansion on our first tour, we knew that we wanted to celebrate our marriage there. Chef Al created a wonderful menu and our guests enjoyed countless hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour. We are still receiving so many compliments on how delicious both the salmon and chicken dishes were for the main entrees. The dessert room is nothing like you have seen before. We could not have been happier with how our wedding day turned out. We highly recommend Aldrich mansion, Tony, chef Al and his team for your wedding day!

We were married in September at the Aldrich Mansion. It was the best decision we could have made! First of all, the mansion and its grounds are stunning. I don't think you can beat this venue especially if you're looking to have a wedding that is timeless and elegant. Second of all, our experience with Tony couldn't have been more positive. He always seemed calm and laid back, but he was so responsive and super organized, and never made us feel like we were rushing him, even when we visited on those busy Saturday mornings! It is clear that Tony has done this for a while and knows what works logistically for a wedding at the mansion -- but he was so open to our ideas that were different from the norm and just went with it. We so appreciated that because it all came out to be exactly what we envisioned! Third, the food was delicious. We received so many compliments! Our guests seemed to particularly love the baked scrod and the mini lobster rolls!Last, but most importantly, our day went off without a single issue thanks to Tony and his staff. We could not have asked for a better wedding day and we owe so much to them for pulling it off so perfectly! Wish we could do it all over again!

My husband and I married at the Aldrich OLP Catholic Chapel and had our reception over in the mansion one year ago on October 20, 2018! We had looked at quite a few other venues but as soon as we visited the Aldrich Mansion, we knew this place was the one! Amazing location, breathtaking venue, high class service - an absolutely exquisite place to have a wedding!Our event coordinator Tony was so professional and attentive and we were grateful to have had him help us with every little detail. From our initial walk through and over the course of a year and a half, Tony made the entire experience a breeze. He and the entire staff went above and beyond to make sure that our wedding vision come to life! The food was brilliant and Chef Al was a delight to work with. He even let us bring some of our cultural dishes to be served. And one of our favorite aspect of the reception was the incredible dessert room. When the doors to the beautiful library opened up and the guests were greeted with close to 20 cakes and pies, they were all in complete awe! We are so grateful to the incredible Aldrich team for making our day a dream come true!

Aldrich Mansion truly is the perfect wedding venue. It's gorgeous, and it has beautiful views right on the water. Their wedding package is such a great value and includes so much. And, for what wasn't included in the package, Aldrich had a list of recommended vendors, making planning that much easier. And, the members of their team are absolutely incredible. Tony, Aldrich's wedding coordinator, was so great to work with and very responsive. He has so much experience with weddings, and he was really helpful when we needed advice. Everyone there really does go above and beyond to give you the wedding of your dreams, and my husband and I could not be more grateful.

Our daughter just had her wedding Oct 13th at Aldrich Mansion. It was the best day! Every part of her wedding was just perfect, starting with great weather. The venue is so pretty overlooking the water. The inside of the mansion is gorgeous. Our photos are so pretty. The food was delicious with generous servings. The Elizabethan package is amazing. Our guests could not believe all of the appetizers and the dessert room which was just amazing. Tony and his staff along with Jackie and Amy were so attentive to every detail!!! We also loved having the chapel onsite. It made it so easy for our guests just to walk to the reception from the chapel and the sound system made it very easy to hear the entire ceremony especially the priest and the vows. We just can't say enough good things about Aldrich Mansion which gets 5 stars. It is the perfect place for a magical wedding!!!

From the moment we arrived at the Aldrich mansion for our initial tour we knew without a doubt that this would be our wedding venue! The mansion is absolutely gorgeous and has breathtaking views of the Narragansett Bay that provide a beautiful backdrop for the wedding pictures. There is also a Catholic chapel right on the property for Catholic ceremonies so that guests can walk right over to the mansion after the ceremony for the cocktail hour and dinner. Tony Maggiacomo, the event coordinator for the Aldrich, was professional, very responsive and obviously very experienced in event planning. Every email we sent him received a response within the next day or two, which my fiancee and I found very reassuring. Three unique things about this venue that I absolutely have to highlight: (1) the venue provides access to AllSeated, a digital seating chart platform that made our lives easy for this part of wedding planning. We had our seating chart done in less than 48 hours! I have heard stories from other brides about how painful this process was for them; (2) the dessert room! You have to do it!! It was the highlight for most of our guests, and we're still hearing about it! It also means that you don't have to separately order a wedding cake as this is part of the package; (3) the mansion does not have a liquor license and allows the hosts to procure their own alcohol for the event. We were able to get alcohol at a third of the cost it would have cost us elsewhere, and so we had open bar for our wedding. You can't beat that! I cannot say enough about how we lucked out with this venue. Do yourselves a favor and book them!!

My husband and I got married at the Aldrich Mansion on 9/29/18 and it was a perfect day. During the year leading up to the wedding Tony was extremely helpful. During the year before the wedding, he answered all of questions and met with me multiple times to make sure I had all of the information I needed. On the day of the wedding, he spent the time making sure everything was set up exactly how I envisioned it and even edited a couple place cards because I put the wrong table number for a couple guests! Tony made me feel 100% comfortable and confident throughout the entire process and I can't thank him enough. Chef Al and his staff were also great! Chef Al was extremely accommodating to the changes we wanted to make to the menu and the food on the day of the wedding was amazing. We received numerous compliments from our guests on how much they loved the food. The day of staff was extremely attentive. They were constantly checking in with my husband and I to make sure we had everything we needed and kept us on schedule throughout the night. In addition to the staff, the mansion and the chapel are absolutely beautiful. We had perfect weather so we were able to enjoy both the inside and back patio of the mansion. I can't thank the Aldrich Mansion enough for everything and our wedding will forever be a day that we cherish. I highly recommend the Aldrich Mansion to anyone who is looking for their wedding venue!

Do yourself a favor... book the Aldrich Mansion for your wedding! I cannot give high enough praise to the Aldrich Mansion and the entire staff! They see to absolutely every detail, and make everything run very smoothly on your wedding day. Tony, Aldrich's event planner, will work tirelessly to ensure that you get exactly what you want for your special day. The day of my wedding was an absolute monsoon... pouring rain and extremely windy. But, as soon as I got inside Aldrich Mansion, I actually forgot about the weather completely. This is because I had my wedding mass at the gorgeous onsite chapel, and once we got inside we were able to stay inside for the entirety of the day. While this may not seem like a big thing, it most definitely was!! Had I been forced to walk outside in my dress either enroute to mass, or enroute to the reception, it would have been ruined in the mud of that stormy day (plus my hair would have taken a beating). Instead, I was in the comfortable, visually stunning, and DRY Aldrich chapel and mansion all day. The mansion and chapel also provide wonderful photo settings if you cannot be outside due to weather. I think I like my indoor pictures better than I would have if they were taken outdoors! Also a note to folks considering a holiday season wedding... no one decorates like the Aldrich Mansion! My wedding was a few days after Christmas, and the decor could only be described as magical. And don't get me started on the food... it is absolutely delicious, and they give large dinner portions. They also knocked the cocktail hour out of the park. Thanks to Aldrich Mansion for a truly fairytale wedding!

Aldrich Mansion was the perfect venue for our wedding. Tony was wonderful to work with throughout the planning process, answering all of our questions, planning every detail from the timeline of the whole day to where every piece of decoration would be placed, and even making last minute changes to the layout to accommodate our request. On the day of the event, the entire staff was extremely professional; the two attendants assisted us throughout the day and got us whatever we needed. The chef, Al, was very helpful in planning the meal and the food was exceptional, not to mention the dessert room, which was a show stopper! All of our guests, including our parents, raved about the venue, the staff and the food. We highly recommend Aldrich Mansion and couldn’t be happier that we had our wedding there!

10 stars! There are too many wonderful things to say about the stunning Aldrich Mansion and everyone who works there. My husband and I saw this place for the first time a year ago, shortly after getting engaged. It was one and done! The opulent beauty of this historic mansion and the grounds will take your breath away. It is so romantic, elegant and simply stunning.The Aldrich was extra perfect for us because of the GORGEOUS Chapel right on the grounds (the property is owned by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Providence). When we toured with Tony, the event coordinator, we were sold right away. Tony is the most pleasant and professional person you could ever hope to work with when planning your wedding. He guided us through each step of planning and answered all of our questions along the way. Chef Al was the same! It was such a delight to meet with him at the food tasting and our planning meeting. He gave us some great advice!The food! The passed hors d'oeuvres were delicious and a huge hit! The beef was so choice and the chicken so tender. I have to mention that literally EVERYTHING we tried at the food tasting was impeccable in quality, taste and portion and these qualities carried over in our wedding day meals as well. Chef Al and his crew are culinary rockstars! Our guests are still raving about it all. One of many unique features is of an Aldrich wedding is the incredible dessert room (tarts, cakes, pies, bananas foster etc.) in the gorgeous library. We opted to have this and our guests were stunned and excited! It was so much fun to have a surprise for everyone.Our wedding day was nothing short of perfect, a dream come true! Amanda, our day-of coordinator, was magic! She was so kind and helpful and lightning fast, getting us tea/water/wine, anything we wished while we took our pictures. She coordinated the flow of the day beautifully. My husband and I and our party had our own space upstairs to place our things (phones, extra shoes, etc), get dressed, freshen up and have a few moments to ourselves between photos and intros. All of the staff were pleasant, helpful, quick and professional; a well-oiled machine built for the most wonderful, top-notch event experience you can imagine. We are so grateful to each and every one of them for making our special day so awesome! We're already hoping to have an anniversary party there down the road! Thank you SO MUCH to everyone at the Aldrich Mansion!!

Aldrich Mansion is an exceptional place to get married. We could not have asked for more. Our friends cannot stop talking about “the best wedding” they’ve ever been to. It’s not because of us it’s because of the mansion. The staff, starting with Tony, were phenomenal. They go above and beyond in every aspect when compared to other venues. There is a reason why they have so many glowing reviews. If I could do it again I would have our reception here again without any reservations. Lastly, food is out of this world when compared to other weddings; the desert room and beef tenderloin cannot be beat.

We loved having our wedding at Aldrich Mansion and it honestly couldn't have been easier or more beautiful. Tony was a wedding professional through and through, having planned weddings here for years. In the weeks leading up to our wedding he was so helpful with all of the little details, he met us at the mansion on the Thursday before our wedding and organized all the decorations, photos, programs, etc. (Don't worry if he's not as responsive months out from the wedding, he will be there at the drop of a hat when it really matters.) All of our guests were so incredibly impressed with the views and the mansion and said it was one of the best weddings they have ever been to. We got married in the chapel which was SO easy and great that you can get married in the Catholic church and then just walk next door and immediately start cocktail hour. Also definitely do the dessert room- it was such a fun surprise for after dinner and all of our guests were raving about it. It wasn't even that much of an additional expenditure because we didn't have to pay separately for a wedding cake. We brought in our own alcohol from Total Wines and it was the way to do it! It cost about half as much as my other friend's weddings. You cannot go wrong with Aldrich Mansion!

The divided ballrooms actually worked really well, we had 100 in each divided by family and everyone loved the different rooms. We had a February wedding, and it was a fairytale. Getting married onsite at the chapel is so convenient and gorgeous, the guests loved walking right into cocktail with the views! Chef Al's food in wonderful, we did the Elizabethan package and the tenderloin is a must! You can't go wrong, the place is phenomenal and your experience will be amazing!

Getting married onsite at the chapel is so convenient and gorgeous, the guests loved walking right into cocktail with the views! Chef Al's food in wonderful, we did the Elizabethan package and the tenderloin is a must! You can't go wrong, the place is phenomenal and your experience will be amazing!

I don’t even know where to start, but I can’t imagine getting married anywhere else. Tony and Chef Al are complete dreams to work with on top of the mansion being absolutely stunning. Our guests are still blown away with the beauty of the venue and the incredible food (you have to do the dessert room). Thank you all for making our day so perfect

Aldrich Mansion is a dream of a wedding venue and has a wonderful team to support you throughout the planning process. The venue itself is beautiful and unique, and you actually host your event in the mansion as opposed to in a tent on the lawn like many other RI historical estates/mansions. The planning coordinator (Tony) and day-of wedding coordinator team are professional, responsive, and in short - pros. They've done this before and are excellent at taking care of you throughout the process. The food is excellent and the dessert room is a crowd pleaser. We had guests stay in Providence, which created a bit of a drive to the venue via provided buses, but offered a nicer selection of hotels and more things to do for out-of-town guests than Warwick (in our opinion). Highly recommend Aldrich Mansion and the chapel to any couple looking for a stand-out venue with excellent service!

My husband and I got married at the Aldrich mansion 9/16/2017 and it truly was the perfect day! The Aldrich mansion is stunning, we looked at many wedding venues in Rhode Island and we were blown away with the Aldrich mansion. Tony, chef Al, and all of the staff were AMAZING. They truly care about making your wedding day perfect and will do whatever it takes to make it happen. My family/friends were amazed with how beautiful the Aldrich mansion is and are still talking about how delicious the food was. The staff is very organized and the day/night ran smoothly. I 100% recommend the Aldrich mansion to anyone looking to get married :).

Tony, Chef Al, and team were fantastic! To start.. the venue and grounds are breathtaking, and you get it all to yourself. Our guests were enamored from the second they walked into the chapel. The detail and elegance in the mansion is like no place else and it was great for our smaller, intimate reception (we closed off the second dining room for the night). To be honest, as a wedding venue, I think Aldrich blows those Newport mansions out of the water..Anyway, the food was AMAZING. I think we will be returning yearly for Christmas dinner. Chef Al is a rockstar.Tony made they whole planning process a breeze. He was quick to answer questions or help us through paperwork. We left a lot of detail to Aldrich, and everything was perfect.

It made the day of go by flawlessly and the schedule of the night was perfect. My husband's family that came in from Texas were taken back by the beauty of the venue and the views.

I have had my eye on Aldrich since I saw a Facebook friend got married there. When we got engaged, I knew exactly where to check out! So we went to 2 or 3 other places in RI and then the Aldrich, I didn't influence my parents or fiancé too much about how I loved it simply from pictures so they could make their own decision. My fiancé was worried about the flow since there are 2 dining rooms instead of the usual 1 ballroom. The three of them were FLOORED at how amazingly gorgeous the entire property is. We booked that day and cancelled all of our other appointments for that day. Tony is phenomenal. Not only does he have so much experience but he takes all the guessing out of it. You simply shoot him an email with any wedding question you have and you have a pleasant response right away. I can honestly say I did not worry about much at all throughout the planning of my wedding because of this amazing venue and the even better team. They set everything up for you as long as you give them direction, so you don't have to do any decorating or organizing. You don't really have to do much of anything once you drop off your stuff a few days before the big day.Al was amazing and people cannot stop talking about the food at the wedding but mostly..the dessert room!! So many people have told me that they stood in awe of the gorgeous dessert room..until they realized they needed to get in line for some bananas foster (which one of my bridesmaids is still dreaming about).I cannot say enough about this amazing place as a whole. GET MARRIED HERE!!!

My husband and I got engaged in Paris in April 2015. One month later, we were touring Wedding Venues and when we went to Aldrich Mansion, we knew that it was the right fit for our Wedding!We had about 160 people in August 2016, and our guests are still raving about the venue, view, and food! We had people of all ages and from all over the world on Our Big Day, and everyone just was so happy and comfortable at Aldrich Mansion.Aldrich is an extremely elegant venue, and one that makes you feel like your Wedding Day is truly a fairytale. We had the most beautiful weather in August and our guests were able to stroll on the lawn, sip cocktails on the patio, or wander around the rooms inside while the jazz band played outdoors. I think that one thing that sets Aldrich apart is that all of our guests had their own experience and they could do what they liked as far as where they spent their time during our Reception: the bar room, the patio and lawn, the dance floor, or the sitting rooms. We had many guests with many different tastes and food allergies and Aldrich was so accommodating with the choices! We loved our time spent with Chef Al and Tony- they are truly experts and professionals!! The staff is a joy to work with and so much of our year and a half of planning was made easier and more simple thanks to the Aldrich staff. As a Bride, I really didn't have to worry about anything on the Day, and that is an amazing feeling!If you are wondering, the Dessert Room is a MUST! We kept it a surprise for our guests, and they really, really loved it! All in all, it was the most spectacular day we ever could have asked for, and Aldrich played such a big part in making our wedding day dreams come true! Thank you especially to Tony, Chef Al, and the entire Aldrich Mansion staff! We will re-play all of the memories of our happy day at Aldrich Mansion forever. We were also so lucky to have a Harvest Moon rise over the water to end our special night!It was all so meant to be! :)C & R

I do not even know where to begin with this review because everything was OUTSTANDING for our wedding this month!!!! If I could give this place a million stars I would, that is how amazing our wedding was. First of all, my husband and I were on a strict budget and the Aldrich Mansion worked with us to achieve our dream wedding without having to sacrifice major items we wanted. Second of all, Tony the event manager is INCREDIBLE. I would love to put him in my pocket and take him everywhere with me to plan out my life. These people here know how to plan and run an event. I plan events for my job all the time and I was worried that because we did not have a wedding planner that I was going to be doing a lot of work during our wedding. Not with the Aldrich Mansion!!!! They literally are on point, they know everything and execute to the highest level. I did my own decorations and centerpieces, I took pictures and sent them to Tony and him and his staff put together everything exactly how we envisioned our wedding. I just couldn't believe I didn't have to do anything or look at a clock or what not. Two hostesses during your event will keep you on track of time and make sure you stay to the schedule you plan out with Tony and Chef Al beforehand. And yes you read that right, Chef Al helps plan the schedule! He is truly amazing as well - what an amazing chef. People keep contacting us letting us know how amazing our food was which is saying a lot seeing how we all know wedding food is usually just ehh. Chef Al is very particular about his work so he wants to work with you. I said people had nut allergies, dairy allergies,etc and he was so accommodating. Also, we wanted to do signature drinks and they went above and beyond for that too - when I walked in after our ceremony I saw my Carver cranberries beautifully strewn throughout champagne and perfectly place sugar cubed for my husband's old fashioned. I want to go back to the mansion every weekend for an event. They have kept this place in such pristine condition - when you walk in you think WOW - and that is what sold us and that is what our guests said when they arrived. It literally was a fairy tale wedding!!!! Nothing went wrong - crazy right? They keep in touch with your other vendors, all you have to do is fill out their contact sheet and then your golden. Easy peasy. Thank you Aldrich Mansion (Tony and staff) for your amazing work, you really made our dream become a reality and for that we are forever thankful!!!!!

Working with Aldrich to bring our wedding vision to life was an absolute dream. The venue itself is amazing, and the team we worked with was incredible. The mansion and grounds are stunning, and the chapel couldn’t be more convenient. The library, dessert room, grand foyer, and grounds are truly one of a kind and unforgettable. The dressing areas and private bathroom upstairs are pretty and convenient. The lower floor has AC which is extremely rare for mansion venues, and it is one of the few options for an indoor, seated dinner for 230+ in this setting on the east coast.We booked more than a year and a half out, and from day one until our wedding day (and even months after) our venue coordinator Tony and the entire team at Aldrich went above and beyond to make sure every little detail was accommodated and every expectation was surpassed. Tony was available, a great communicator, warm, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile to bring our vision to life. He accommodated multiple visits and special requests and worked seamlessly with all of our vendors and month of planner to coordinate a very detailed event. Chef Al was equally great to work with, taking the time to review all of our menu and cake details, again accommodating multiple special requests and always greeting us with a smile and great sense of humor. His food is delicious and our guests are still complimenting the lobster bisque and tenderloin. Along with the lovely and helpful hostesses, Tony, Chef Al, and team were extremely helpful and attentive on our wedding day, and the entire staff and operation was extremely professional and efficient.Aldrich was truly made for fairytale weddings and I could not recommend it more. Everything from the venue to the food, the team, setting, and the planning process was delightful, special, and unique. Our family and friends are still saying it is the best wedding they have ever attended, and I know we owe so much of that to the magic of Aldrich.

We had a long reception- 6 hours! of awesomeness- and rather than being stuck in one banquet hall like other weddings, our guests could wander through the lounge, dining rooms, patio, library, waterfront, etc. We were a little nervous about it having two dining rooms, but it wasn't an issue at all. You just do things a little out of order (toasts and first dance immediately after the entrance, rather than once guests are seated), but the hostess ensures all the scheduling and transitions go smoothly, so we never worried about it. The library was straight out of Beauty & the Beast, I was in love. Second- Tony and the Aldrich staff were amazing. We felt like we were the only wedding they were hosting! Tony responded to all of our emails within a few hours and was incredibly accommodating when we were running late for appointments. Over the entire year+ of our wedding planning, he was so helpful and patient when we stressed about little details- there was no dumb question. And on the day of, they treated us like royalty and everything went perfectly (or if it didn't, we never knew!). Third- the food was to die for. The dessert room blew our guests away! We are going back to Aldrich for their Christmas dinner just so we can have their food again. And lastly- price. For the size of our wedding (200 people), this was the most inexpensive venue we could find! Which was amazing, because it was also our favorite. I would highly recommend the Elizabethan package. We also saved so much money with it being BYOB, something most venues do not offer. All in all, our wedding day was incredible and like a fairytale, all thanks to our reception being at the Aldrich Mansion!!

We fell in love with Aldrich mansion immediately (I mean come on, just look at it) but what we weren't expecting was how much we'd love the staff. They were always responsive, kind, and incredibly helpful. The day of the wedding, I would have been lost without the amazing staff. There was always someone by my side getting me water, making sure i had a moment to eat, and one of the waitresses even took my bouquet and put it back on the table for me. The food was outstanding, the location is beyond beautiful.. It's everything you could want in a wedding venue.

We were married on June 20, 2015 and could not have asked for a better more perfect venue.\r\rWhile all brides attempt to prepare for that \"one thing that will go wrong\"...with our wedding, that one thing never came. The staff, the food, the magic of the mansion, everything was PERFECT. Our guests from all corners of the country raved that it was the best wedding they had ever been to and the best wedding food they had ever eaten! \r\rUpon our arrival to the mansion to get dressed, all the responsibility and stress I felt was removed. We were in their hands and I was so glad!! We took our wedding photos throughout the grounds before the ceremony and were able to view the true beauty of this place. Next was our wedding ceremony in the chapel which went off without a hitch. The assistance and guidance provided by the mansion was impeccable and much appreciated.\r\rJames and I had the best night of our lives thanks to those wonderful mansion staff - from the church to the cocktail hour to those late evening hours on the dance floor! They were there for our every need and even for the things we did not know we needed!!\r\rAs an example, it began raining towards the end of the night. We had one bartender at the outdoor bar who my father at that point saw standing outside in the rain. My father told him to come in and not to worry about the bar outside. The bartender insisted that he stay, in case someone wanted to stand outside and have a cocktail. This is just one example of the efforts of the amazing staff. \r\rI am SO happy that we chose this place...a perfect venue with amazing views of the water for our guests from Florida, California, New York, Massachusetts and beyond.\r\rI urge you to consider this venue in your search, you will NOT regret visiting and falling in love with this place, just as we did! Thank you Aldrich Mansion for making our wedding day absolutely perfect.

The Aldrich Mansion went above and beyond to make our wedding day a fairytale! I have been in 10+ weddings and attended 40 plus weddings in my lifetime. I have to say I waited for the right man to walk into my life, but we could not have asked for a more exquisite venue and the professionalism that was displayed was top notch! I just wish I was a guest at my own wedding!! \r\rThe food is still being raved about almost two months later! Chef Al's beef tenderloin can be cut with a butter knife and melts in your mouth! The dessert room was just an added bonus, but I have to say, what a conversational piece that will be discussed for a long time coming! \r\rBar none, I have to say our day was absolutely perfect! There was rain, but the Aldrich thought of everything! As a bride you worry if you need a planner, and whether you (or if your family is involved) can plan the entire ceremony and reception from start to finish. I did most of my planning and just firmed plans with the Aldrich. However, the Aldrich staff is very responsive with the questions via phone calls or emails you have leading up to the wedding and the day of their timing, professionalism, open doors, and \"family\" staff make YOUR day seamless! \r\rWe highly recommend this venue! We are over the moon with how our day went and the beauty that surrounded us!\r\r\rBy the way, being able to bring in your own alcohol saved us about $10-$15K!!

We fell in love with the Mansion from the moment we walked in - the beautiful, historic mansion, the ocean views - it's truly special and makes for a memorable event. \r\rDon't let the multiple rooms dissuade you. The night flowed seamlessly, guests enjoyed exploring different rooms, and the non-dancers could still have conversations in the library or dining room while guests hit the dance floor throughout the night.\r\rWe had 200 guests. The food was delicious, the bar well-staffed and the dessert room was a hit. The night was amazing and we wouldn't trade picking Aldrich as our venue.\r\rThe planning process, however, was tough at times (this coming from a low maintenance bride). The staff was a bit rude at several points in the planning process, and overall not very accommodating. Short, snippy emails; Chef called me a bridezilla when I asked about flexibility in the dessert room etc. They know what they're doing and know how to run a smooth wedding, but could use a customer service refresh for the planning period. The day-of hostesses were very attentive and friendly though and cooperated well with the wedding coordinator we hired for the week of the wedding.\r\rOverall: multiple rooms was a hit; venue is beautiful; food was delicious; but be prepared for some attitude during the planning process.\r

Needless to say the location is just magical. The mansion as well as the grounds it's situated on are just perfect. Since then, I've had person after person tell me it was one of the most magical weddings they've ever attended. \r\rIn addition, the majority of the staff was amazing, expect for some major hiccups with one staff member. Chef Al is a sweetheart and extremely accommodating, he took the time to discuss our needs and arrange a menu to fit that. John, the Director, is one of the nicest people I've ever dealt with in any professional setting ever. However, Gloria one of the directors was not just rude, but also ignored and humiliated my mother and father, and other family members who were helping with the wedding. I always tried to be kind and courteous in my emails and calls, however when she dealt with my parents especially, who were helping with pickups and setup she was entirely out of line. The day after the wedding when my parents went for a pickup at **8am** (yes, the day after a long wedding just 6 hours before) my mother called and she balked that they should have already been there! Once my parents got there she opened the door then completely ignored them!!\r\rIt's an amazing place, but for that type of treatment and humiliation the received it really made the \"best day of my life\" pretty sour.

So beautiful, so regal, great view, and professional staff... this place makes planning a wedding from a distance breeze. The staff is extremely responsive. They do have a lot more rules than a typical venue, but they are easy enough to follow, and they know what they are doing! They do a great job of marketing themselves, so I was pretty much sold before I took the tour. One thing to consider (which inevitably totally tipped the scale in their favor), was that this was the ONLY mansion I saw with A/C. A summer wedding in New England can go a lot of ways, and I just didn't want to take a chance that there wouldn't be a heat wave.

Quickly after our engagement, my mother began searching for venues in southeast MA and RI for our 2012 wedding for us. My mom came across the Aldrich Mansion and from our first visit my fiancé and I were in love! Here is why we selected the Aldrich and were so glad we could have our wedding there: (1) The location was perfect: it was close to the airport, had a number of hotels that were priced well for our guests and also close to Providence for guests that wanted a city experience. (we had 90% out of town guests) (2) The grounds were beautiful for a summer wedding: close to the water, great lawn, and an amazing mansion. (3) The chapel was on site and we could bring in our own priest: The chapel is absolutely gorgeous! I loved the seating and the wow factor as our guests walked into the chapel. It was also tremendously convenient that both the chapel and mansion were on site! No traffic or potential for our out of towner guests from becoming lost! (4) We would be the only ones on the site for the entire day of our wedding! It was our own mansion for the day! (5) The mansion is gorgeous inside and out! Every aspect of the mansion is just perfect for a wedding. (6) My hubby loves history and the mansion brought a historical aspect that we couldn't find at other venues.\r\rPrior to the wedding, the ladies at the Aldrich work with you to ensure all the details you want are captured and that they understand them to ensure they are executed on the day of. We also met with the chef prior to outline our menus and what our preferences would be for the food! They obviously have tons of wedding that they are planning but I always felt that mine was the only one on their list. They were never too busy to answer a question or reassure us. \r\rThe day of our wedding was just a perfect day. The staff at Aldrich is top notch and want you to feel like a king and queen on your big day. They not only make sure you are taken care of but they made sure our parents and guests' needs were taken care of throughout the night. They were caring, calming and wanted you to know they were there to support and take care of you without being overwhelming and intrusive. Oh! and I forgot to mention the dessert room!! It is an entire room of desserts for the night of. AMAZING. Our guests were shocked when the smell of the amazing desserts hit them as they walked in!\r\rOur guests are still raving that our wedding was the best they have attended and that it was a fairy tale day. Looking back, I wouldn't change anything about our day. I highly recommend the Aldrich Mansion, their chef/catering and their staff. Absolutely amazing work. They truly enjoy what they do.

(we had 90% out of town guests) (2) The grounds were beautiful for a summer wedding: close to the water, great lawn, and an amazing mansion. (3) The chapel was on site and we could bring in our own priest: The chapel is absolutely gorgeous! I loved the seating and the wow factor as our guests walked into the chapel. It was also tremendously convenient that both the chapel and mansion were on site! No traffic or potential for our out of towner guests from becoming lost! (4) We would be the only ones on the site for the entire day of our wedding! It was our own mansion for the day! (5) The mansion is gorgeous inside and out! Every aspect of the mansion is just perfect for a wedding. (6) My hubby loves history and the mansion brought a historical aspect that we couldn't find at other venues.\r\rPrior to the wedding, the ladies at the Aldrich work with you to ensure all the details you want are captured and that they understand them to ensure they are executed on the day of. We also met with the chef prior to outline our menus and what our preferences would be for the food! They obviously have tons of wedding that they are planning but I always felt that mine was the only one on their list. They were never too busy to answer a question or reassure us. \r\rThe day of our wedding was just a perfect day. The staff at Aldrich is top notch and want you to feel like a king and queen on your big day. They not only make sure you are taken care of but they made sure our parents and guests' needs were taken care of throughout the night. They were caring, calming and wanted you to know they were there to support and take care of you without being overwhelming and intrusive. Oh! and I forgot to mention the dessert room!! It is an entire room of desserts for the night of. AMAZING. Our guests were shocked when the smell of the amazing desserts hit them as they walked in!\r\rOur guests are still raving that our wedding was the best they have attended and that it was a fairy tale day. Looking back, I wouldn't change anything about our day. I highly recommend the Aldrich Mansion, their chef/catering and their staff. Absolutely amazing work. They truly enjoy what they do.

We had our wedding on 12/1/12 at the Aldrich Mansion and it was simply stunning. The Mansion is completely decked out for Christmas the entire month of December, so we got to take advantage of all the beautiful decorations without any additional cost (and their off-season pricing starts in November!). Paulette and Gloria were great to work with all year, they took care of everything. The dessert room is a MUST - all our guests are still gushing over it. We had our ceremony at the on-site chapel which was also beautiful. Everything went very smoothly, and having the Mansion for a full 6 hours (post-ceremony) was great - no one wanted the wedding to end. I am sure the venue is gorgeous in the warmer months, too, but I highly recommend the Aldrich Mansion for anyone who wants a wedding at Christmastime - you will not find a more beautiful (and well-run) venue for the price!

After deciding that the Newport mansions would be too much of an expense for our guests (Two night min stay at hotels for $500+ a night was way too much to ask) We began to search for a more reasonable option. What we discovered was better than any of the previous vendors. \r\rThe Aldrich Mansion has it all, a dessert room that does not disappoint, picturesque views of the bay and a Catholic chapel on site! (A little more paper work for a Catholic wedding, but you can choose your own priest) \r\rThe girls at the mansion do everything they can to make you feel like your wedding is the only wedding they have all year. Chef Al is your private chef for the evening; he is friendly and willing to work with any personal needs. The waitstaff was accommodating and professional. \r\rWe could not have imagined a more perfect day!

The Aldrich Mansion is a fairytale wedding site! The food was phenominal and the service was amazing. The staff there caters to you from start to finish. I went to the food tasting there and di not want anything on the menu so I met with the chef and he custom made a seafood dish that was to die for! I could not be more impressed by the Aldrich. My only advice to brides is to take pictures before the wedding ceremony if you have your ceremony at the OLP Center. Because of the fact that the church is on site, your wedding goes from ceremony to reception quite quickly and you have little time for pictures in between. We had an hour before the ceremony pictures taken, and it still did not seem enough.

Our wedding photos from around the grounds and inside the mansion came out amazing.\rWe feel so lucky to have had our wedding at the Aldrich.

We had our wedding at the Aldrich on 9/10/11, and it was amazing.\rVenue location: Warwick was perfect for us. We toured several venues, and our final decision came down to the Aldrich vs. Oceancliff in Newport. For us, the Aldrich won out because there was no event minimum, and we liked that Warwick was away from the hustle and bustle of Newport. We also loved the mansion feel. We had a lot of out of town guests, and I didn't want them to be overwhelmed getting in and out of Newport. I also didn't want them to pay too much for accommodations. We had a room block at the Crowne Plaza Warwick, which was only 15 minutes away, for $119/night, with a hot breakfast buffet included. In addition, we booked a coach bus through Fisher Bus Company for our guests between the hotel and the mansion, and it worked out great.\rVenue style: We were worried that the two dining rooms and lack of designated dance floor might be issues with how the night went, but I have to say, we think we prefer the two separate dining rooms and would recommend that it's not a con, but rather a pro for the venue. We sat our families in one dining room, and our friends in the other. It was perfect because the older folks got to sit and eat their dinner in a relatively quiet setting, while our friends could get as rowdy as they wanted in the other room. The venue did a great job of escorting us from eating our soup/salad in one room to dinner in the other room. I think that both rooms felt like we spent enough time with them. As for the dance floor, no one seemed to care that it was in the foyer of the mansion. People were dancing all night. \rFood: The food was amazing. People keep telling me that the food was the best they've had at a wedding, and we have to agree. The lobster bisque was amazing-- Chef Al did not skimp on the lobster! The petite filets were perfectly cooked. Even the wedding cake was amazing, and I'm normally not a cake person. The only \"complaint\" I have is that we had the dessert room for $12.95/pp, and they ran out of bananas foster way too quickly. \rDecor: The ladies at the mansion set up everything perfectly. We didn't add much to the mansion since we thought it was gorgeous on its own, but we did have some personalized touches that they set up exactly as we discussed. In addition, online pictures of the mansion do not do it justice. It is a gorgeous venue, both inside and out. If you luck out with weather, you'll get to do your introductions, toasts, and first dance outside on the patio, which we loved. \rService: The ladies who run the mansion are truly amazing. They promptly responded to all my emails during the planning process. If they couldn't reach me by email, then they would call. In addition, the service on the day of the wedding was second to none. As the bride and groom, we had hostesses getting us drinks, telling us where to go, what to do next etc. all night long. Our guests were in awe of how smoothly everything ran. Little did they know that our wonderful hostesses were orchestrating everything behind the scenes.\rOther: I can't think of much else. The only real downside to the mansion is that it is expensive. You have to pay a flat fee ($8k as of 2011) to rent the property, which includes tables, chairs,and standard linens (which looked great to me!). The food bill, security detail, insurance and other expenses are in addition to the rental fee. \rBottom line: My husband and I loved the mansion, and we are so glad we chose it.

My husband and I chose Aldrich for a few important reasons. (1) It has a Catholic chapel attached, so we were able to have our ceremony and reception in one location, which saved a bundle of time and money. (2) The on-site coordinators have a tremendous amount of experience. Even during a hurricane, the event ran seamlessly. (3) Location! The mansion, which is gorgeous on the inside (tough to tell on their website), also has beautiful grounds for photos and an outdoor cocktail reception. (4) Dessert buffet - if you really want to WOW your guests, spend the extra money and have the buffet. You won't regret it.\r\rDownsides: The in-house chef is less than spectacular. Nice man, but his creativity is limited. Food quality was not a priority for us, so if it is for you, don't choose Aldrich. They don't allow outside caterers.

Our wedding was held at the Aldrich Mansion back in July of 2008. Throughout the planning process the mansion staff was so wonderful and helpful. When it comes to the food, it was excellent. We went to a tasting a few months before the wedding and had a great time. We then met with the chef who helped customize our menu. He even added on an extra veggie at no cost to help make it a healthier meal. Everyone raved about the food. We were married at the OLP Chapel and thought it was wonderful. It was intimate yet unique. At the end of our service they rang the church bells, which was a nice surprise. Our reception at the mansion was wonderful and people still talk about it to this day. It was fantastic having the chapel and the mansion in one place to make things easier for the guests. They really know what they are doing here and everything ran very smooth. The couple of things that I would do differently would be to have a separate cake besides the one the mansion provides. I asked for no icing decorations and for the ribbon I provided to be placed at the bottom of each tier and the florist would decorate it with flowers. Instead, the cake had a bunch of icing designs and the ribbon was placed on top of it. Really not what I wanted. The flavor also wasn't what I had asked for. In addition, I wish I went with some decorative table cloths. While they provide ivory table cloths, I really wish I had gone with a decorative one for the little bit extra money it would have cost. You do have to bring in a bar tender and liquor company, but the ones that they work with and recommend were great. Overall, I would highly recommend the mansion and would love to go back there again for another wedding or event. The mansion itself was just so beautiful that it made for such a beautiful backdrop to the entire evening.
