Weddings

Katie and Conrad are married! Their fall Newport Harbor Island Resort wedding this October was stunning – and we feel so lucky to have been their photographers! Katie and Conrad’s wedding day featured a beautiful palette of light blue, gold, and ivory – which was a great choice at Newport Harbor Island Resort. With all of the water views surrounding them and the neutral backdrop that the resort provides, the blue really popped and brought the space to life.

Katie and Conrad held their ceremony indoors and their reception in the ballroom space, keeping everything simple and in one beautiful location for their guests. We enjoyed the nice day outside, though, as we captured their newlywed portraits around Goat Island in front of the Newport Bridge. It was truly the perfect Newport wedding day! Congratulations again, Katie and Conrad! Thank you for having us with you during your wedding.

Newport Harbor Island Resort Weddings

If you didn’t know, Gurney’s Newport Resort recently changed their name to Newport Harbor Island Resort. Newport Harbor Island got a new name, but it’s still the same venue we love! Known as Newport’s premier resort, this stunning venue provides an unparalleled view of the Newport Bridge and breathtaking ocean scenery. It’s truly one of the most gorgeous event venues in the area and certainly one of our favorites. Newport Harbor Island Resort is a wonderful option for anyone looking for a modern venue with an unforgettable view of the water!
