Newport weddings remain quite the rage for brides seeking a glorious experience for their wedding day. Beyond the gorgeous seaside venues that Newport offers, that ethereal experience comes together with the help of many talented wedding professionals who strive to make the occasion one to remember. Over the years, Boston Premier has had the pleasure and honor of performing many incredible Newport weddings at venues such as The Bohlin, The OceanCliff Hotel, The Castle Hill Inn, The Beach House, The Eisenhower House, Belle Mer, Regatta Place, Ochre Court, The Hotel Viking, and Rosecliff Mansion. We are known as a Newport wedding band and truly enjoy performing at these venues and being part of such incredible celebrations.

We love traveling down to Newport becuase the weddings there have a certain flair to them. There's a glamour and charm that couples from all over the world gravitate to. One of the most recent weddings we performed at was for Anna and Matthew, a wonderful couple from New Jersey that held their wedding at The OceanCliff Hotel. Anna and Matthew's wedding day was an incredible, exquisitely detailed celebration from start to finish. Here are some details you've got to see!

Take a peek at Anna & Matthew's incredible wedding at OceanCliff in Newport!

Anna & Matthew's Highlight Reel From Their Wedding.

The Start of a Wonderful Day!

On the morning of Anna and Matt’s wedding, Ceasar (band manager), Jonathan (guitarist), and Nick (sound engineer and DJ) arrived at OceanCliff Hotel at 11:30 AM with the band’s equipment vehicle. We began the day by unloading and setting up the full PA system inside the ballroom, ensuring the foundation for an exceptional live sound experience was in place.

By 2:00 PM, the remaining band members arrived to complete the full setup, including drums, keyboards, horns, and vocal stations. Once all musicians and vocalists were dialed in, the band conducted a full sound check to lock in the mix and ensure everything was perfectly tuned before guests arrived.

With the ballroom ready, we shifted focus to the ceremony. Our team moved outside to set up a separate microphone system, speaker array, and DJ equipment, creating a seamless audio experience from the first vows to the final dance.

Their Ceremony.

A wedding ceremony on the back lawn of OceanCliff is truly unforgettable, and Anna and Matthew’s celebration was no exception. With sweeping coastal views and a beautifully adorned arbor framing the moment, the setting created a breathtaking backdrop for their vows on a perfect August afternoon.

As guests arrived and took their seats, our DJ set the tone with soft, elegant music that complemented the serene atmosphere. Two handpicked songs, chosen by Anna and Matthew, added a deeply personal touch to the ceremony. The bridal party entered to the instrumental version of I Get to Love You by Brian Catuccio, followed by Anna’s emotional walk down the aisle with her father, accompanied by a moving piano and cello cover of Christina Perri’s A Thousand Years.

At the conclusion of the ceremony, the crowd rose in celebration as the couple was joyfully introduced as Mr. and Mrs. Delancy. It was a moment filled with love, applause, and the beginning of an unforgettable new chapter.

Newport Weddings Are Elegant Affairs!

The ballroom was nothing short of breathtaking. Every detail, from the floral arrangements to the table settings and uplighting, was thoughtfully curated to create a refined and elegant atmosphere. Anna and Matt’s vision for the space was executed flawlessly, resulting in a stunning setting that captivated guests the moment they walked in. The entire room reflected their impeccable taste and commitment to creating an unforgettable celebration.

Let's Get This Party Started!

At 7 pm, Boston Premier began performing a set of sophisticated background music as guests made their way into the ballroom from the cocktail hour. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, setting the perfect tone for the evening ahead.

Once everyone was seated and the signal came from the function manager, we invited guests to rise and celebrate as we formally introduced Anna and Matthew into the room. The energy was electric as friends and family cheered for the newlyweds, marking the beginning of an unforgettable reception.

Following their grand entrance, Anna and Matt went straight into their first dance—a heartfelt and elegant moment that set the tone for the evening. Boston Premier performed a custom arrangement of Can’t Help Falling in Love, creating a romantic and unforgettable atmosphere as the couple danced together for the first time as husband and wife.

Without missing a beat, we transitioned into September by Earth, Wind & Fire, instantly bringing the dance floor to life. Guests joined in with enthusiasm, and the celebration was in full swing. As the energy soared, the room was filled with joy and movement until it was time for the first course. At that point, we invited everyone back to their seats to continue the evening’s festivities.

Formalities

While guests enjoyed their salad course, we heard a heartfelt welcome speech from the bride's father. The best man and maid of honor followed up with beautiful toasts of their own.

After dinner, the couple performed a traditional cake-cutting ceremony and then took a moment to thank their guests for joining them and sharing their special day.

Let's Pack The Dance Floor!

After the parent dances concluded, Boston Premier launched into the second half of the evening with incredible energy. As the house lights dimmed, our stage lighting illuminated the band, creating a striking visual that signaled the start of an unforgettable dance party.

It was a joy to watch Anna and Matthew surrounded by their loved ones, completely immersed in the moment, dancing and celebrating with full hearts. Boston Premier delivered a perfectly curated mix of timeless dance favorites—from Earth, Wind & Fire and The Jackson 5 to contemporary hits by Dua Lipa and Bruno Mars. Every song kept the dance floor packed and the energy high.

The celebration was nothing short of spectacular. It was a vibrant, nonstop evening filled with joy, laughter, and music as Boston Premier carried the night with passion, precision, and a performance that matched the magic of Newport itself.
