    What A Perfect Day!!

    I had my Bridal Shower at Harbor Lights and I would not have changed a thing! Maxine and Kendal were so helpful throughout the planning process and their team executed everything just the way I had imagined! Plus, the food was delicious! Thank you Harbor Lights for the bridal shower of my dreams!

    Holiday Party

    We had 30 guests for our Holiday Party and were not disappointed. The service was great, the food was excellent (we had a 10am brunch), and the venue itself was beautiful. Highly recommend this place.

    Phenomenal venue!!

    Wish I could rate Harbor Lights way more than 5 stars! Maxine and her amazing team were incredible, during every step of the planning process all the way up to the day itself. Our wedding day was more perfect than I ever could have imagined and that was largely thanks to this amazing venue. They are truly incredible at what they do and experts in the industry - the attention to detail is unmatched, and they are just fun and friendly to work with on top of that! Our parents and the whole bridal party are still raving about how awesome Harbor Lights is. Thank you!!!!

    Surpassed my expectations

    My wedding day was perfect and everything I dreamed of. I had our rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception at Harbor Lights. Everything ran smoothly, the service was exceptional, the food delicious. Our guests raved about the food! The scenery for our pictures were beautiful. From the docks on the ocean to the barn by the pond, everything is there. I considered hiring a day of coordinator but am glad I didn't because Maxine took care of everything. The entire day ran on schedule. What's more, she assisted through the entire event planning process. She always returned my calls/emails in a timely manner and addressed my questions and shared really great ideas with me. I was not disappointed and am so happy I had my wedding there!

    A perfect wedding day!

    We absolutely loved every second of our wedding and picking Harbor Lights was such an easy choice. From the views, the food, to working with Tie. Everything went off without a hitch. Tie made planning my wedding so easy and simple I never had to worry about any detail. She genuinely cares and makes sure all your needs are met and stays in constant contact with you through the whole process which was very comforting. If you are considering choosing them for your wedding or any event look no further. They are top of my list for all events I will hold in the future. Thank you Harbor Lights and thank you Tie!

    Highly recommend!!

    I had my baby shower at Harbor Lights & also previously attended a wedding here. Each time- the atmosphere, service, attention to detail & staff were amazing! Not to mention the food was absolutely delicious! If you are looking for something classy by the water, at a super affordable price- look, no further. Harbor Lights is definitely for you. Maxine the coordinator was 10/10 to work with. She is super sweet, professional & is there for your every need.

    Perfect venue!

    We are so happy that we chose Harbor Lights for our wedding venue. From start to finish, everything was perfect. We mainly worked with Tie, and she was fantastic with keeping track of all the details and promptly responding to any questions or concerns we had. Her constant positivity and attention to detail ensured that we enjoyed our wedding day without worry. Our guests raved about the hors d’oeuvres and enjoyed their meals. The rooms and the patio were set up perfectly and everyone loved being able to use the driving range during our cocktail hour. We would definitely recommend having your wedding at Harbor Lights!

    Felt like a princess all night

    At first had a couple bumps in the road but they sure knew how to make it up to me. Maxine and her coworker made me feel like a princess all night. They made sure I always had a drink in my hand or at my table and that my husband and I were happy. Food was amazing and if I asked them to jump they would’ve said how high. I never felt more important in my life then the way these girls made me feel.

    Best Decision We Made For Our Wedding!

    We worked with Tie for about two years leading up to our wedding. She was so amazing through all the ups and downs of planning a wedding during a pandemic! She was always responsive and very accommodating with our schedule since we planned this out of state. Our bridal parties loved her too. Her energy and commitment to her job made the rehearsal and day of go smoothly. Her supporting staff the day of was also great. The venue itself was beautiful and everyone raved about the food. Couldn't ask for more than that!

    The best experience start to finish

    Harbor lights was the easiest and best decision when picking our wedding venue.
    From the first day walking around and seeing how beautiful it is to then sitting down with Tie to discuss the options she made it so fun and enjoyable.
    We booked right before covid hit for April 2021. I had so many questions this past year, while Tie was dealing with plenty of other brides she always answered all questions quickly and made it less stressful.
    The day before our wedding we met with Lauren to drop off and she was the absolute best to work with that day and day of wedding. Her and Tie handled everything perfectly and so beautifully.
    The ENTIRE staff working the wedding was incredible. And the food was unbelievable!

    10/10 recommend Harbor Lights for anyone looking for a beautiful wedding with the best staff!!

    Best Wedding Venue Ever!

    My partner and myself have been planning with Tie (the wedding coordinator) for over a year. When covid hit she was on top of making sure we knew all of the ins and outs of the wedding day. We couldn't have asked for a better coordinator and facility to host our wedding!

    Wedding 10/17/2020

    Where do I start? Tie and her staff are amazing! I was able to plan the whole wedding with their expertise and support in a matter of two months. Everything was smooth and stress free during this pandemic. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose Harbor Lights!

    Amazing experience!

    My husband and I recently held our wedding at Harbor Lights. We’ve enjoyed dining at Par & Tackle in previous summers, so naturally Harbor Lights was on our “must see” list of Wedding venues. Our coordinator, Tie, was a dream to work with. Like many other couples this year, we were faced with the challenge of reimagining our wedding day due to the current Covid-19 pandemic. From the start, Tie made sure to communicate every possible option we had and continued to do so as restrictions changed during the course of the pandemic. Ultimately we reduced our guest list and resorted to an entirely outdoor ceremony/reception. The obstacles didn’t stop there! The weather was not in our favor but Tie again made sure that everything was perfectly taken care of so we didn’t have to stress at all on our wedding day. The entire staff was exceptional and we had the most beautiful day despite the change of plans and weather. Thank you Harbor Lights!

    Harbor Lightd

    My wife and I hosted our wedding at Harbor Lights On 10/10/20. To say this venue is beautiful is a complete understatement. We were absolutely Amazed by how diligent the staff was especially Miss Tie Cole who was our wedding coordinator. Tie answered every single one of our questions promptly and effectively. On our wedding day we had no worries whatsoever we had full faith in her and she made the day completely stress-free. The Daequan the wedding with everything we had hoped it would be and then some. Thank you Harbor Lights. Especially, thank you Tie!

    Beautiful location staffed with amazing, hard working people who dedicate their time to you!

    My husband and and I were married on 10/4/2020 at Harbor Lights. It is a beautiful venue! We had our ceremony outdoors on the property and our reception indoors. Everything was perfect! My husband and I had no worries on our day, because we had Tie Cole by our sides! She is truly Amazing! One of the most dedicated and hard working people I've ever met. She truly loves what she does and I knew this from the moment I spoke with her. We couldn't have asked for a more AMAZING day, venue, and coordinator!

    Flexible to make your special day exactly what you want. Great value for coastal wedding. Marina right next to it brings your nautical theme to life!

    Stop right here, don’t look any further!!

    My husband and I cannot say enough about our experience with Harbor Lights! From the moment we met Tie, our wedding coordinator, she made us feel welcome and at home. She was a big part of the reason why we chose Harbor Lights as our venue and we could not be happier. We were looking for a setting that had a little bit of everything. During our selection process we visited many other great spots. Once we reviewed what all the venues had to offer, staff, location, views etc. it was a no brainer, we chose Harbor lights. From our initial inquiry until the big day, Tie was very attentive and enthusiastic. All our many questions were answered thoroughly; and she always responded to our emails right away.
    We had our ceremony on the premises which is a beautiful location right on the water. You can imagine how the stunning sunset behind us during the ceremony added to our perfect day! Before the ceremony, we found multiple charming spots on the property where we were photographed. Our first look was on the docks which was intimate and unforgettable! Cocktail hour was both outside and inside taking advantage of the great scenery and weather. Our guests really enjoyed that time! We also cannot say enough about the food selection, quality, and service offered at Harbor Lights. Between the cocktail hour appetizers and dinner entrees, our guests were raving about how delicious the food was. How can you go wrong with Lobster on a potato chip?! We were pleasantly surprised and thankful about how reasonably priced the day was at Harbor lights.
    Even though our reception was inside, the ballroom is all windows creating a great vibe with a spectacular view of the harbor. Tie took great care designing and setting up the room capturing our vision. Throughout the day, Tie and the rest of the staff were by our side for whenever we needed them and effortlessly guided us through the day. As you can imagine, especially during Covid times, they were honest and reassuring. Our wedding day turned out to be absolutely beautiful and perfect! From the bottom of our hearts we cannot thank Tie and Harbor Lights enough for making this possible!!

    Excellent!!

    My husband and I got married in September 2020 at Harbor Lights. I emailed Tie and told her that I was looking for a small wedding ceremony and a venue, and she responded right away that they have a mini package that is perfect for what I'm looking for. She was very accommodating from the very beginning until our wedding day. It ended up raining on our day but she made sure that everything is perfect. She worked so hard to make our wedding day extra special. Our guests loved the food and the raspberry lemon cake! I would highly recommend Harbor Lights and Tie is the best!

    Loved our venue!

    Choosing Harbor Lights as our venue was the best choice. You get the ocean view, golf course and marina all in one! There are so many stunning spots on property and the room is also gorgeous. We mainly worked with Tie throughout our experience and she was phenomenal. She was always quick to respond and was always on top of her game. Due to COVID we had to reschedule our wedding for a year later and she made that transition seamless. On the day of the wedding we worked with Kate and she was also excellent. Every single person I talked to the day of my wedding (wait staff, bartender, etc) were amazing! The food was incredible and I got so many compliments from guests about it! I would absolutely recommend Harbor Lights.

    Perfect Venue

    I had a destination wedding in RI and did most of my research online where I found Harbor Lights. When we went down to RI this was our first stop on my list of venues to check out. Immediately we knew that this was our venue. We only looked here and we are so glad we chose Harbor Lights. You cannot beat the price of this venue for the stunning views and food. The food was amazing especially the lobster mac and cheese! Jessica was the absolute best. She answered all of my questions and made us feel special on our wedding day. We did not have a first look and she made sure we got our hor devours and drinks during cocktail hour. We opted for a bucket of golf balls during cocktail hour which kept our guests entertained while we took our pictures. We also brought our own corn hole that was set up on the lawn for guest to play during cocktail hour. When the best man lost our vows Jessica and her team kept me calm and printed them out for me from their office. As soon as the ceremony ended she had beers and hard seltzer ready for the bridal party which was an perfect surprise! They have a golf cart that carted the bridal party all around the grounds so we didn't have to walk around in heels which was a huge plus.They also allowed us to have our dog in the wedding. I didn't have to worry about a thing because I knew the Harbor Lights team would take care of it. We had the most beautiful wedding and can't thank Harbor Lights enough!

    Harbor Lights's reply:

    CONGRATULATIONS on the wedding Kristin! Thank you for your kind words about your experience with Harbor Lights and our amazing team, We wish you both a life time of happiness. :)

    Perfection!

    My husband and I were married at Harbor Lights a few weeks ago, and we could not have asked for a better venue. From the planning process to the rehearsal dinner to our actual wedding day, the team was there to answer our questions and give us guidance.

    Our guests were impressed by the views for the ceremony and reception. We opted to have buckets of balls available for our guests to use the driving range during cocktail hour, which was a big hit.

    Our family and friends are still raving about the food, especially the passed hors d'oeuvres (I would HIGHLY recommend the Fish and Chips- they will not disappoint)! We also included a Doughnut and Coffee Milk station for dessert, which they also enjoyed.

    Overall, Harbor Lights is an amazing venue. They allowed us to host the wedding of our dreams- which our guests will be talking about for years to come.

    A Hidden Gem in Warwick

    When looking for the perfect venue, Harbor Lights hit all of our goals: the beautiful ceremony location overlooking the bay, the reception hall that has views of the water, and the price that fit in our budget with our expected guest numbers! The food was fantastic and well prepared! Hannah was our coordinator and she did such a wonderful job from the tour to the big day. When we had conflicts come up, Hannah was quick to respond back and more than willing to try to help us out. The team at Harbor Lights did more than enough to make sure that the day went smoothly especially when problems arose. All of our guests had nothing but great things to say about the location, the food, the sunset and the venue itself! We were even given a free game of golf the next day! We happily recommend Harbor Lights to anyone looking for that affordable venue by the water!
