This is the beautiful Rhode Island estate where Jennifer Lawrence will wed art gallery director Cooke Maroney today (Saturday 19 October). Belcourt of Newport, as it is called today, was designed in 1894 by the renowned American architect Richard Morris Hunt and inspired by Louis XIII’s hunting lodge at Versailles. It is currently owned by Carolyn Rafaelian, CEO of Alex and Ani, who had the sprawling 40,000-square-foot estate restored in 2012. The property has changed hand several times over the year and used to be known as Belcourt Castle, before it was re-birthed under its current name. Back in the 1990s the property became the talk of the town on account of the raucous parties it hosted, including a ‘No Underwear Allowed’ theme where female guests had to stand over a mirror to prove they were abiding by the rules. After decades of little care, the once-derelict mansion started to offer ghost and murder mystery tours. Rhode Island native Ms Rafaelian purchased the property in 2012 for $3.6million and oversaw a year-long restoration, which included an exorcism of the property. Speaking to the New York Times in 2013, Ms Rafaelian said: ‘There were energies and entities, some not pleasant. ‘I had a shaman perform ceremonies. We did a major cleansing, energy-wise. There was a lot.’ Today, 29-year-old actress Lawrence is set to exchange vows with Maroney, 34, at the historic venue, with 150 guests expected to attend. And an extravagant menu, complete with an array of hors d’oeuvres and many dessert options, including s’mores, is set to be served up. 19 Oct 2019 Pictured: CAPTION: Belcourt of Newport, the historic and lovingly-restored 1894 estate in Rhode Island where Jennifer Lawrence is set to wed Cooke Maroney on Saturday 19 October, 2019.
