The Newport Syndicate was a stunning location to have our wedding reception, on August 12th, 2017. From the first meeting, the staff and owner at the Newport Syndicate were kind, friendly and very welcoming. They truly treated us like family, which is a rare thing to find in business. From the first meeting to the last, of the planning process, everything went really well. I was so impressed by their experience. The reception was honestly the one part of the day that went perfectly smooth and effortless. They really know what they are doing and will make you look good! Thank you, Sharon, Rachel, Betsi and Samantha!

If you are planning a wedding, I seriously advise going else where. I had nothing but problems with the syndicate regarding my big day. It was so bad that I even went through 2 wedding planners. I don't know if they were fired or if the just quit. But I would make plans and then not hear anything back. Come to find out my planner was gone. We were invited to tastings then told we couldn't go, then told we could. My in laws are from out of town, spent a lot of money on plane tickets just to go to a tasting that was scheduled and guess what. We were told we couldn't go to the tasting again! That was super irritating. They waited less than a week to tell me what I owed them for my final payment which resulted in complications paying other vendors off. I found a string in my potatoes. A janky blue string that looked like used dental floss which I have multiple witnesses of. I was told that the owner would call and talk to me about this. It's been 2 weeks and I haven't heard anything. I could keep going but thinking of my experience is just frustrating me. Mistakes happen, but mistake after mistake is not okay. Save yourself the heartache and book somewhere else.
