My husband and I recently had our wedding at the stunning Bay Pointe Woods and we could not have been happier with our choice. From the moment we first visited the venue, we knew it was the perfect place for our special day. The grounds are absolutely breathtaking, with lush gardens, beautiful flowers, and a charming pergola where we exchanged our vows. The staff was incredibly attentive and helpful throughout the planning process, making sure every detail was perfect. The ballroom was elegant and beautifully decorated, providing the perfect backdrop for our celebration. The food was delicious and the service was impeccable. Our guests raved about how wonderful everything was and how smoothly the event ran. Overall, we could not have asked for a better wedding venue.

We had our wedding at Port 393 on December 14, 2024, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. Chloe, our wedding planner, was incredibly attentive and had everything under control from start to finish. Her meticulous attention to detail allowed us to relax and truly enjoy our special day. Chloe was always easy to reach and guided us through every step of the planning process. On the day of the wedding, she made sure I had everything I needed and went above and beyond to make the day special. She even took care of loading up the car throughout the night, so we could focus on enjoying time with our family and each other. The decorations were stunning, and the entire venue looked beautiful. I highly recommend letting Port 393 handle all the details—they truly made our wedding everything we had hoped for and more. It was a fun and memorable day, thanks to their exceptional service.
