The Carnegie Event Center is a venue that offers an experience of elegance and class. The building was home to the Newport Library for over 100 years and so not only does it offer beautifully restored and stunning architecture but also has a rich history.
We had the privilege of meeting and speaking with Mary Lippert, the General Manager at the Carnegie Hall at Newport. She had some great information to share with us and any bride or groom looking for their perfect venue. Take a look below for our interview with Mary!
