Newport Weather & Hotels

Some people have been asking what the weather in Newport will be like so they can dress accordingly, as the ceremony will be outdoors. Well, the average temperatures in Newport in July range from a high of about 61-66F (~16C) to a low of about 52F (11C). It can be cool and breezy at the coast so it would be smart to bring a sweater, wrap or some other layer of warmth to put on in the evening. It is much warmer inland (Corvallis) in July with average highs around 82F (27C) but it can be even warmer than that inland.

Also, if you haven't made reservations yet at a hotel in Newport...it might be a good idea to reserve something soon. I know that the Elizabeth Street Inn only has a few rooms left for Friday night and other hotels are booking up quickly. Summer is high tourist season in Newport so things tend to get booked early.

Please let us know if you have any questions! We look forward to seeing you in July!
