The Newport Harbor Lighthouse, which sits behind the Hyatt Regency Hotel on Goat Island in Newport, Rhode Island, has been a popular site as a backdrop for weddings held on the grounds of the hotel. The American Lighthouse Foundation and its chapter – the Friends of Newport Harbor Light, plan to utilize the 1842 granite beacon in the future for periodic educational public tours once safety enhancements have been made at

the lighthouse.
