Ashley and John’s coastal summer wedding at OceanCliff was filled with so much beauty and love. They had a stunning color scheme with hues of pink and orange flowers.
When Ashley described her vision for her reception she said “The main goal was for the room to feel warm and inviting. Inspired by our Italian heritage, the color palette and theme were inspired by the whimsical and dreamy coast of Italy, with personal touches throughout.”
One of our favorite moments from their wedding day was that the rain stopped and the sun came out right before the ceremony started and Ashley picked the song “Here Comes the Sun” to walk down the aisle down to. Ashley said, “that was a moment that she will cherish forever and the circumstances made it that much more special.”
This wedding was so special and it will be one that we will always remember!

Litchfield Distillery recently stopped by The Safari Room at OceanCliff to chat with our restaurant manager, Reagan Nicole, and sampled our new fall cocktail, the Cocoa Maple Old Fashioned. We are honored to be the first restaurant in Newport to be featured in their Mixology Spirit Series.
The Cocoa Maple Old Fashioned is made with Litchfield’s Distillery’s 4-year Straight Bourbon along with their Bourbon-Barrel Maple Syrup.
“The addition of Dark Creme de Cacao and Cocoa Bitters adds a subtle layer of chocolate flavor, while creating a velvety-smooth mouthfeel. If you love Old Fashioneds, this is a nice, simple spin on the classic recipe—one we think is especially good for the fall and holiday seasons.”
When asked what makes a great cocktail versus just a good cocktail, Reagan said “Quality ingredients and creativity…and recognizing when simplicity is necessary.”

Thank you Litchfield Distillery for visiting us and trying one of our new fall cocktails!
