Goat Island
Newport, RI
Located on the edge of Narragansett Bay on Newport's exclusive Goat Island, Belle Mer redefines simple chic by combining Newport's timeless elegance with a contemporary energy and understated glamour. Surrounded by 6 ½ acres of picture-perfect grounds, complete with outdoor terraces, an island house and 14,000 square feet of indoor function space, Belle Mer epitomizes the Newport wedding experience.
The design blurs the distinction between exterior and interior, with a palate of white on white defining the Belle Mer experience. A study of complimentary contrast begins with a large stone fireplace surrounded by pearlescent oyster shell tiles, framed by large antiqued mirrors propped against the adjacent Trousdale walls. A collection of mismatched antiques contrasts against modern custom-designed crystal chandeliers, with the sixteen-foot long white sheer curtains that line the walls offering a breezy reprieve. The interior look of sophisticated style is tied together with highly glossed planks of rich Brazilian cherrywood that line the floors. The interior spills onto the Oceanside lawn, featuring a collection of intimate exterior "rooms." Framed by evergreen hedges, paths of crushed oyster shells traverse the property's 6 ½ acres of verdant green grass. Throughout the landscaped grounds, rich dark wood-and-wicker furniture plump with sail cloth cushions offer inviting sitting areas, and wooden pergolas, draped in white sheers, create a shady respite. Food and wine play an integral role in the success of any special event, and can turn an everyday function into one that will be talked about for years to come. At Belle Mer, we work closely with our clients to create the perfect culinary setting for each event. From a multi-course meal paired with the finest wines from our Private Reserve List to trendsetting savory and sweet stationary displays, Belle Mer guarantees an unparalleled culinary experience. Belle Mer is the perfect venue for wedding ceremonies, receptions, rehearsal dinners and post-wedding brunches. We look forward to being a part of your special day. |
