About this venue

This summer Gansett Cruises is celebrating nearly two decades on the water! We offer public as well as private cruises in Newport's Harbor and the surrounding waters of the Narragansett Bay. As a wedding venue, the vessel Gansett offers the couple a unique opportunity to share their vows with a 360 degree water view. Newport's shoreline is speckled with Gilded Age Mansions from the turn of the last century as well as lighthouses and the breathtaking Newport Pell Bridge. A stocked bar is available with beer, wine, cocktails and sodas, all served by our well balanced crew. Casual bites can be catered from a 3rd party and served onboard as a casual meal or hors d'oeuvres. If you see yourself getting married in an intimate yet breathtaking venue with simple elegance then onboard Gansett is the perfect space for you! We can also accommodate your wedding adjacent events like bridal showers, bachelorette parties or simply somewhere for your guests to enjoy their down time in Newport.

    The Narragansett Bay Route

    A curated journey through Newport’s historic waters

    Unlike a traditional room, this "event space" is a curated journey through the scenic waters of Narragansett Bay. Your event unfolds as you cruise past the Newport Bridge, Rose Island Lighthouse, and the stunning estate coastlines. The layout of the vessel allows for a seamless flow of guests from the bar to the viewing rails, ensuring everyone has a "window seat" to the sunset. With the sound of the waves and a custom playlist via the onboard sound system, this mobile venue transforms a standard gathering into an immersive coastal adventure that showcases the very best of the Ocean State.

    Ideal for

    Cocktail hour, After party, Elopement, Other
