Celebrations Rooted in

For us, wedding planning isn’t just about a fun party.

LUXURY WEDDING PLANNER

It is about the experience, the effortless appeal of walking into your wedding venue and seeing every detail perfectly placed. It’s about being fully present, immersed in your story, trusting that everything will run smoothly, and everything is where it needs to be. 

This is Port Town

This is ease. This is peace.

Josh White

CEO & Chief Curator

With a foundation rooted in oral tradition, arts, culture, and philanthropy, Joshua brings a rare convergence of heart and vision to everything he creates. As CEO and Chief Curator of Port Town Collective, he has built one of the most distinctive creative enterprises in the southeast, where history, beauty, and bold storytelling converge.

His work commands a room. A history major with a deep fascination for the Gilded Age, his aesthetic is maximalist at its core, richly informed by classic film, Hollywood Regency design, and Rococo architecture. His signature approach, layered yet purposeful and opulent yet deeply considered, reflects a curator who understands that spaces and experiences should tell a story. Port Town Collective is the living embodiment of that philosophy.

When he’s not deep in a project, Josh can be found with his hands in the garden, needlepoint in his lap, or lost in a book made of real paper and always leatherback. A devoted cat dad shaped by the Georgia wilderness, his native landscape shows up in everything, whether he intends it to or not.

Every member of the Port Town Collective team is selectively curated by Josh, first for their impeccable character for their attention to detail, refined taste, and poise under pressure. The Golden Method is made possible through this team of visionary artists. Throughout the planning process, every touchpoint is handled with grace, care, and a genuine desire to create something masterful.

Every aspect of our wedding was executed flawlessly, and we couldn't be more grateful for their expertise.

The Port Town Way

  • We want you to feel like royalty, which is why we’ve developed a concierge approach to simplify the wedding planning process. After years of studying the service traditions of the Gilded Age, we have incorporated these elevated traditions to create an unparalleled level of service. With one contract, one point of contact, and seamless vendor management, you can be fully confident from start to finish.

  • Every wedding is a narrative, not just an event. We turn your heirlooms, values, and personalities into tangible design and rituals, creating celebrations that feel deeply personal and cinematic. We see events as living works of art: architectural, atmospheric, and (dare we say?) amazing.

  • We don’t believe in contrived, cookie-cutter ideas. With a background in art curation and museum installation design, we treat every vendor as an artist. We appreciate their individual work while considering the way it contributes to a larger experience. From this perspective, we create concepts rooted in history, romance, and high design. Our events are layered, immersive experiences that tend to reflect a maximalist yet refined aesthetic.  We propose only elevated, authentic concepts. Every element of your wedding is unique to your story, never recycled.

  • We navigate challenges with grace, anticipating needs before they arise so your celebration feels effortless.

  • Every decision is filtered through what serves you best — your story, your priorities, and your peace of mind. Our operations are built to turn clients and vendors into true advocates, and (if we’re lucky), friends that feel like family.
