Rhodes On The Pawtuxet

Rhodes on the Pawtuxet is a historic wedding venue located in Cranston, Rhode Island, housed in a neoclassical revival building that opened to the public in 1915. The venue features distinctive architectural elements including 10,000 square feet of hardwood floors, 21-foot ceilings with unobstructed views, and the original gazebo known as "The Trolley Stop." The venue underwent a complete transformation in 2020, restoring historic details while adding modern amenities. The foyer showcases an original mural of Narragansett Bay painted by watercolor artist Hezekiah Dyer, along with a restored coffered ceiling, crystal chandeliers, and an expansive bar. The main ballroom features tented fabric drapery with Edison lights, second-floor orchestra lofts, and gold-leaf accents. The venue boasts one of the finest dance floors in New England and was added to the Registry of Historic Places in 1978. Rhodes accommodates 300+ guests and offers a range of services including catering, bar and beverage service, desserts, rentals, planning assistance, and event staffing. The team has 24 staff members and speaks English and Spanish.
