Newport Vineyards is a wine-lovers dream just minutes from Newport, Rhode Island. Founded in 1995 by brothers John and Paul Nunes, it is the largest grower in New England and boasts award-winning wine, craft beer, and farm-to-table dining experiences spread over 100 acres of preserved farmland.
The vineyard offers exceptional venue options suitable for any occasion or size, including weddings and bands. To upgrade their outdoor event space, the Nunes brothers researched a versatile weather solution and found ShadeFX.
Four retractable roofs and structures were customized to fit the lawn area, replacing the unreliable table umbrellas. Gutters were added for optimal rain management, and outdoor lighting was strung underneath to create an intimate ambience after dark.
The motorized roofs in the Serge Ferrari Champagne fabric were paired with custom structures powder-coated in a complimentary brown. Now, the renovated terrace is the ideal location for guests to soak up the rays during the summer and have an intimate dinner during the fall.
