Jason & Amanda are just like so many Port 393 couples—joyful, deeply in love, and completely committed to one another. But their wedding held an extra special place in our hearts, because Amanda is the niece of our very own Candice.
While they were dating, the idea of getting married at Port 393 was tossed around, but they wanted to choose their venue with intentionality—not just go with the “obvious” choice because of family ties. Still, once they toured the space, everything changed. When they arrived for their tour, their engagement photo was displayed on the floor projection, a beautiful and personal touch that set the tone for a celebration full of intentionality and love.
They quickly realized that even though Port was family, the experience would be no less extraordinary than it is for any other couple. In fact, the team was just as dedicated—if not more so—to creating an unforgettable day tailored just for them.
Port 393 became the starting point of their next chapter—as the Ives. Surrounded by family and friends, they were at the heart of it all. Every detail was chosen to reflect their story and to let them be fully present in the moment. To make sure their loved ones could relax and truly enjoy the day, they entrusted the entire decor experience to Port’s premier partner, Charm Decor House. With everything handled beautifully, the focus stayed exactly where it should be—on the couple and their love.
One of the most memorable moments of their day? Signing the brick wall at Port 393—a meaningful tradition for our couples. Today, that brick is a sweet reminder of their beginning, and they make a point to visit it each time they’re back at the venue.
As they reflect on their marriage so far, Jason & Amanda speak with joy about the milestones they’ve shared: getting their first home, bringing their dog into the family, being baptized together, and continuing to grow—always side by side, always best friends. Through it all, they’ve never stopped laughing together.
And what would they tell their newlywed selves now? To slow down and savor the little things. Coffee together in the morning. Grocery store runs. Quiet moments that build a beautiful life.
Jason & Amanda, thank you for letting Port 393 be part of your story. Your wedding was more than just a celebration—it was the beginning of a life filled with love, faith, and friendship. And we’ll always be honored that you chose to start it here.
