Alexandra and Scott (Hotel Monaco Wedding)

I talk frequently with people about the importance of finding a venue that matches your style and taste.  Pittsburgh offers so many choices including museums, renovated churches, and some of the best high-end hotels.  Alex and Scott could not have made a better choice than holding their wedding and reception at the amazingly beautiful Hotel Monaco located in the heart of the downtown area.

After the ceremony and cocktails on the main floor of the hotel, guests were invited to the roof of the hotel, which was beautifully decorated for their celebration.  Guests had the best time taking advantage of the stunning flower wall to take photos and selfies.

Alex and Scott’s friends enjoyed dinner and dancing on a perfect summer evening with a stunning view of Pittsburgh!  When it was time to dance, everyone joined in and got a little crazy to a great variety of music from yesterday and today.  I can’t imagine a better location that was truly a reflection of this very cool and fun couple.  Their guests were treated to a one of a kind party that I’m sure will be talked about for years to come.

Amanda and Keith (Club at Shadow Lakes Wedding)

Weddings can be so many things.  Many people plan on how to make the day romantic, elegant and unique, but it’s so important to prepare for how much fun the day is going to be.  I knew from the moment I met Amanda and Keith, that they wouldn’t lose focus on what a great time their wedding at the Club at Shadow Lakes was going to be as their favorite people gathered to celebrate their new lives together.

The ballroom was decorated beautifully and showcased an amazing view of a perfect summer day.  I was thrilled to get to provide uplighting and a custom monogram in the entrance to the room.  As the sun went down, all the guests took advantage of the big dance floor to celebrate.

Amanda and Keith chose some great music for the reception, and their friends and family jumped at the chance to get silly, dance and have the best time ever.  The happy couple is now headed to the Riviera Maya where I’m sure their amazingly fun times will continue!

Grace and Miles (Grand Concourse Wedding)

Friday weddings scare some couples.  They’re afraid that their guests won’t be able to make it, or that no one will stay late to party.  Grace and Miles proved that there is nothing to fear when they held their amazing wedding day celebration on a beautiful Friday night at the Grand Concourse in Pittsburgh, PA.

When it comes to venues, there’s nothing quite like the Grand Concourse.  The main dining room is a stunning location where everyone enjoyed dinner.  Afterwards, the guests headed to the outdoor patio for a fantastic dance party.

Grace and Miles’ wedding shows that Friday weddings can be even better than getting married on a Saturday.  They had so many fun friends and family join them on their special day, it probably would have been just as successful on a Monday morning.  Their wonderfully relaxed attitudes and love for each other made for a great environment for everyone to enjoy.

Meghan and Dan (Pennsylvanian Wedding)

Almost everyone you meet will tell you that they love music, but every once in awhile, I get to work with couples who really LOVE to hear their favorite songs.  Meghan and Dan’s passion for music was evident as they sang and danced at their wedding reception held on a perfect summer day at the Pennsylvanian in downtown Pittsburgh, PA.

The Pennsylvanian is one of the most stunning venues in the city.   The large dance floor was perfect as everyone joined in to dance the hora!

 

Meghan and Dan provided a wonderful list of songs to be included on their big day.  They knew exactly what would get their guests excited and on the dance floor.  As a DJ, there’s nothing more fun than seeing a couple explode with excitement when their favorite song starts playing.  Eventually, it was time for the evening to end, and everyone headed over to the after-party.  The happy couple is soon headed off for a well-earned honeymoon in Greece and Italy.

Chelsea and Tyler (Pittsburgh Airport Marriott)

Many newly engaged couples I meet with are concerned about their wedding guests dancing and having a good time at their reception.  I assure them that if the bride and groom are having the time of their lives, that energy radiates to everyone in the room.  From the moment I met Chelsea and Tyler, I knew their excitement and love for each other would make for an incredible celebration.

Their ceremony and reception were held on a perfect day at the Pittsburgh Airport Marriott.  Both the indoor and outdoor spaces were excellent locations for the big day!

Chelsea and Tyler’s first priority was to make sure their friends and family were included in the celebration, even when it came to the music.  From beginning to end, they were sure to have music from every genre imaginable.  The dance floor was constantly full and you could tell how much everyone loved the newlyweds.  The happy couple is off on a romantic honeymoon in Aruba to relax and enjoy the success of their special day.

Sarah and Brian (Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh)

Wedding days are elegant, serious, romantic, and beautiful, but at the same time they are also funny, loud, joyous and absolutely crazy.  Sarah and Brian road this roller coaster of emotions with style during their perfect celebration at the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh.

The art studio at the museum makes the most amazing location for a ceremony!  Once Sarah and Brian tied the knot, guests made their way to the wonderfully decorated Big Red Room for dinner and a wild dance party.

Sarah and Brian made the most of their big day by making sure to spend lots of time with their friends and family.  They also took time to join in the dancing and singing all the way until midnight!  The couple will soon embark on their honeymoon where they can reflect on their wonderful and successful wedding day!
