Let’s Get Cracking
Welcome Party & Lobster Boil
Oceancliff Resort
65 Ridge Road, Newport, RI 5:30 – 10:30 PM
Trolley Tours and Pickup beginning at 4:45
We have done away with the traditional rehearsal dinner and have chosen to invite EVERYONE to join us in kicking off the wedding weekend. We couldn’t think of a better way to “get things cracking” than with a New England Tradition – A Classic Lobster Boil.
After a long day of travel, we will look forward to gathering on the Upper Deck of the Ocean Cliff Resort for Spicy Margs, sweeping sunset views of Narragansett Bay, and acoustic seaside tunes.
It will be our last night before becoming a Mr. and Mrs. and we can’t wait to greet our friends and family and share some one-on- one time with all of you before our big day.
We picked this location for our Welcome Party because we wanted you all to experience what we consider the most beautiful part of Newport; the pristine rocky coast of the island.
The evening will begin with a narrated trolley tour which will take you on a guided tour around town, past the historic mansions of Bellevue Ave, and around the bends of the rocky coast past some of the most spectacular residential properties in the US.
DRESS – RESORT CASUAL NOTE - we will be in a tented space but you will want to spend time on the open decks so bring a wrap or jacket. The temperature drops quickly when the sun sets!

A Gilded Gathering
Ceremony & Reception
ROSECLIFF MANSION
648 Bellevue Ave, Newport, RI 6:00 PM-11:30 PM
Our Ceremony and Reception will be held at the historic Rosecliff Mansion. We visited the mansion last summer and immediately knew that we wanted to exchange our vows overlooking the Cliff Walk and the Atlantic Ocean. Rosecliff was a key player on the social scene during the Gilded Age and has been the backdrop of Hollywood hits like Great Gatsby and True Lies. We look forward to gathering with our favorite people on the planet as we take a step back in time and party like it’s 1902!
DRESS – BLACK TIE for the men, Glitz and Glam for the Ladies
Late Night Soiree
For those not quite ready to call it quits.
Ceremony & Reception
SURF CLUB & DIVE BAR
337 Thames Street Newport, RI 11:30 PM-1:00 AM
Closing Time at Rosecliff Mansion does not need to be the end of the revelry. If you still have some power left in your social battery, you can hop aboard a trolley and head to Surf Club & Dive Bar for a Late Night Soiree.There, we will run the clock out on this historic night with the craft cocktails, late night bites, and a DJ spinning tunes for the new Mr. & Mrs. Onufry.

On Night Three of our wedding weekend, we are going back to our roots, kicking off our high heels, and planning a relaxed evening of fun. We both share a love for tennis and can’t wait to share with you the incredible International Tennis Hall of Fame and their unique grass courts. This beautiful venue was once the Newport Casino during the Gilded Age and will serve as the perfect backdrop for a fun night of Tennis, Champagne, and Music under the stars.
For those of you who know how to mix it up on the courts, we are planning a Round Robin tournament (and YES, there will be prizes.) For the rest of you, simply show up in your “whites”, sip champagne, nibble on canopies, and watch as the Bride and Groom and others battle it out on the grass courts.
As we gather for dinner on the horseshoe veranda, we will nosh on New England classics, award prizes for our Round Robin tournament, and dance the night away under the last moon of our Newport Weekend.
DRESS – COUNTRY CLUB CASUAL – ALL WHITE requested white jeans, tennis shoes acceptable. Remember you will be walking on the grass courts so comfortable walking shoes encouraged. Also remember this is an outside venue so a jacket or wrap in suggested.
