About Wetherledge
Wetherledge is a private estate on a ledge at the southeast end of Jamestown, with views toward Narragansett Bay and Newport. Its main house dates to 1889, and the surrounding property includes Fort Wetherill State Park. Receptions are held outdoors under rented tents; a 50-by-60-foot tent suits up to 170 guests, while larger tents can accommodate up to 300. On-site wedding ceremonies may precede receptions at no additional charge. The main house’s first-floor parlors are available to the wedding party and family, and can serve as a cocktail area for groups under 150 in case of rain. The bride has access to a room and bath, and bedrooms may be available for rent. The property arranges parking at Fort Wetherill, with optional valet service. Guest restrooms require a rented portable toilet; tables, chairs, tent and catering are not included. Food and alcohol service must be provided by a properly licensed and insured caterer.
