History

Constructed in 1899 by Francis S. Kinney, The Kinney Bungalow was originally the site of lavish social gatherings and extravagant festivities. Its East Indian-influenced structural design was most likely inspired by Francis’ time spent as a sailor. Along with his brother, Abbot Kinney, Francis established the Kinney Brothers Tobacco Company, an authoritative enterprise and major player in the 19th-century tobacco industry. From its subsequent changes in ownership to today, The Kinney Bungalow continues to uphold a legacy of hosting unparalleled momentous events.

Daisy and her team are the best!

We just got married at Kinney Bungalow this past August and we had a great experience!

The best part: Daisy and her team were incredibly responsive, accommodating, and helpful with the entire wedding planning process. From our first tour to the last walk through, she was super sweet and made us feel confident that our big day will go well.

A couple of things about the venue to really consider:
- The sunset is really the best here! Look up when the sunset is on your big day and plan for that! We sat down for dinner as the sun was setting and it was the perfect backdrop for us.
- The bar is tiny so consider doing a limited bar service instead of a full open bar.
- There is no AC so if you know it will be hot, rent some extra fans. The ocean breeze was perfect for our ceremony and most of our reception but the fans will be nice when dancing starts!

Happy wedding planning!

Perfect for our wedding vision

When I first toured venues in summer 2019, I immediately fell in love with this place. It has a special, unfussy elegance that was perfect for our vision. We had to postpone for two full years due to Covid, and Daisy and Emma were perfectly responsive and helpful navigating that process. As our wedding day got closer, they were super helpful with allowing us time for a rehearsal, and even thoughtfully connecting us with another couple getting married the day after us so we could use their arbor.

Our ceremony was held outside on a warm sunny day (late June) and transitioned perfectly into an outdoor evening cocktail hour and indoor reception. The space was flooded with beautiful late-afternoon sunlight during our 7pm dinner. It is so beautiful here that you really don't need to do much decorating at all. And surprisingly, it was one of the least-expensive venues of this kind we found in the RI area. We were slightly worried about the sight lines of the central staircase here, but it turned out not to be a problem at all, even with a 120-guest wedding. The building does not have air conditioning, but with windows on 4 sides and standing fans, there was a nice breeze. Guests might want sunglasses handy for ceremony/dinner if it is a sunny day!

Beautiful venue

Our September wedding at Kinney Bungalow was absolutely perfect. This venue is gorgeous - the intricate antique wood interior, the cozy fireplace, the romantic string lights, and huge windows overlooking the farm and the sunset made for the ideal setting for our vintage-inspired wedding. The coordinator, Daisy, is such a pleasure to work with and was extremely helpful through the entire process. It's a great spot for sunset photos and for parties under 100. The bridal room has antique accents too, which I loved!
