Sometimes when I meet a couple for the first time, I can just tell how much fun we’re going to have at their reception. That was certainly the case when I met Natalie Laneri and John Hurst to discuss their wedding at Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh, PA. Their outgoing and fun nature made me feel confident that their wedding day would be one that would be fantastic for everyone.
The ballroom at Phipps was decorated beautifully with their wedding colors.
Before dinner, John’s brother Cameron serenaded the couple as a special gift.
Natalie and John chose music for the evening that would be special to their families. The cocktail reception featured Latin artists and dinner music had a more Italian feel. Once dancing started, the floor was packed to modern music as well as some classic hits.
After the sun went down, it was time for the newlyweds’ first dance.
Things got a little crazy once it was time to celebrate!
Natalie and John’s guests were having such a great time on the dance floor that they could have easily celebrated long into the night. As everyone gathered outside on that perfect Pittsburgh evening, the newlyweds had the oppourtunity wish their guests farewell. They are now off on what I believe might be the perfect honeymoon as they visit both Antigua and Disney World.
