Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Marlaina + Andre

Hotel Monaco was oh-so-elegant + pretty in pink for Marlaina and Andre's wedding day! Romance radiated throughout the night as everyone in the room could feel the sweet, sweet love this couple has for each other. Stunning floral arrangements infused with the perfect touch of sparkle created {SHE} magic we are still swooning over. The Peters love designer labels and one of their favorites is Versace so {SHE} fused in the signature pattern for their branding. A custom dance floor, mirrored sweetheart table, and too many florals to count were just some of the gorgeous details that were captured as Marlaina + Andre celebrated their stylish happily-ever-after.

Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Emily + Sam

{SHE} loved the timeless details of Emily + Sam's gorgeous wedding this past summer at Hotel Monaco in the heart of Pittsburgh. For the overall vibe, Emily + Sam aka Samily wanted effortless + classic balanced with fresh aesthetics + modern character. The venue's contemporary beauty + stylish ambience provided inspiration for the overall design. The crisp, neutral linens with a hint of texture + sparkle mixed with the incredible greenery + white florals were so inviting and elegant. This fun-loving couple showcased their personality with pops of the classic houndstooth pattern. Speaking of style, {SHE} still can't get over how stunning Emily looked in not one but two wedding dresses! Oh and did we mention the Valentino + Gucci shoes! It was a beautiful start to forever for our happy couple!
