The Aldrich House:

An Elegant Setting for Receptions & Special Events

Whether a wedding, reception, office party or business meeting, the Aldrich House is an ideal location for an unforgettable event. We are located on the beautiful and historic East Side of Providence.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Aldrich House was presented to the Rhode Island Historical Society in 1974 by the heirs of Winthrop W. Aldrich, a former Ambassador to Great Britain.

A reception area serves as the foyer entrance to the cozy 800 square foot ballroom, and our four French doors open to large and beautifully landscaped grounds.

Discounted rates are available to Rhode Island Historical Society Members.

Outside rentals and wedding photography considered. For more information or a personal tour with our Rental Manager, please call Renata Luongo at 401-331-8575 x 49 or email rluongo@rihs.org

You can find a portfolio of Aldrich House photos, as well as venue reviews at The Knot & Wedding Wire.
