Jenny Preston, Founder

I began working in events in 2010 before opening Port & Palm Co. in 2015. I love curating experiences that feel unique to each client and environment. Whether it’s pulling in thrifted vases, layering textures, crafting a flow to best fit a guest’s experience, or figuring out which flower perfectly fits the occasion; I know that no two events ever feel the same. My career has brought me work in not only weddings, but event coordination for large scale city events, fine dining experiences, trade events, and management of hospitality teams. I work with each client to ensure a seamless story is told from the moment guests are greeted to the moment they walk out the exit.

I’m a born and raised girl from Delray Beach, Florida who was dragged through dirt fields of antiques since before I could talk, while my mom taught me the name of every plant and flower we walked by - my entire life. I picked up sand dollars with my toes in neck deep water with my grandpa and brother, and spent weekends rearranging my bedroom. All of these pieces influence my day to day and the way I approach event design.

Fun Fact: While Florida provided the mise en place for my life, I spent 7 years in Oregon immersing myself in the local gardens and the wine industry.

Today, my favorite projects are the ones where I'm managing the complete picture: florals, linens, stationery, vendor coordination, and day-of logistics, all designed together so nothing feels disconnected. We've designed weddings at venues including the Ocean Club of Florida, the Flagler Museum, and the Gulfstream Bath & Tennis Club, and traveled for destination events in the Bahamas, Oregon, Washington, Virginia, and Montana.

We provide wedding floral design, month-of coordination, multi-month wedding planning, vendor selection and management, linen and rental curation, day-of stationery management, rehearsal dinner design, floral arranging workshops, and micro wedding florals.
