Cheers to a great way to kick off your wedding weekend!

If your looking for a festive spot, consider a Newport Vineyards rehearsal dinner! This spot is literally designed for causal, relaxed socializing. It was fun to be there in early spring, the vineyard had a sparse, about-to-bloom quality.

Not to mention, their wines are amazing and venue is gorgeous.

When we photograph a rehearsal dinner, we stay for about 2 hours. This allows us to capture a quick portrait of the couple, the details of the event, and lots of fun candids of the guests. It’s a great way for us to figure out who’s who and make friends with the VIP’s so that the next day, everyone feels comfortable with us!
