Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Cara + Conor

Cara + Conor’s wedding last year was a stunner! As soon as guests moved from cocktail hour to the ballroom, they walked through a tunnel of flowing white drapery, decorated with gorgeous pedestals of floral arrangements. The Omni William Penn’s ballroom was transformed with beautiful white florals, larger than life candles + upside down roses stemming from oversized lamp shades. The tables were a mix of traditional rounds + rectangles but made more modern with white leather curved couches for seating sprinkled into the layout. The dancefloor was a custom mirrored floor where guests danced the night away. It was a night to remember! SHE loves this family so much + wishes them all of the love + joy that they bring to everyone around them.

Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Casey + David

Casey + David’s love story is a sweet one…literally! It started many years ago when they would both watch their younger brothers play baseball under the coaching of David’s dad. Fast forward a couple years + Casey was going into her junior year of high school + had a job at Bruster’s Ice Cream. David had just graduated high school + would frequently stop at Bruster’s where he spent many nights eating Birthday Cake ice cream, each cone with a few extra scoops, scooped by Casey. Fast forward again to 2018, David had finished his first season with the San Diego Padres minor league team + reconnected with Casey + the rest is history.

SHE loved working with Casey + David, their love for each other + their overall fun-loving personalities are contagious! The day could not have been more beautiful. The reception was held at the Hotel Monaco which was the perfect backdrop for the classic + chic design of Casey + David’s wedding. DJ Digital Dave + Jason Kendall Productions kept the dance floor packed the entire night with their combined sounds. It was an elegant + timeless affair + SHE sends all the love in the world to Casey + David + their families.

Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Hannah + Will

Today’s blog features Hannah + Will’s gorgeous fall wedding at Longvue Country Club. The ceremony was under the most magnificent chuppah that was then converted into the stage for the incredible band, Nightsong, to perform on the rest of the night. As guests enjoyed cocktail hour outside on the courtyard, our team along with our fabulous vendors flipped the ceremony room to create a magical reception room. The twinkling overhead lights, combined with the lush greenery + white florals created an unforgettable reception room. It was a night to remember + SHE couldn’t be happier for Hannah + Will.

Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Kaitie + Chris

Kaitie + Chris’s wedding was another standout celebration from last year! It was the third time that SHE has had the absolute honor of working with the Olivo family + planning one of their children’s dream weddings. This time, it was with their only son Chris + his beautiful bride to be Kaitie. Kaitie’s vision for her wedding was glamorous yet also chic. From the white-on-white linens + florals with teeny tiny pops of pale pink mixed in, the Westin Hotel’s ballroom was transformed into a magical oasis. SHE can’t talk about this day without mentioning the absolute gorgeous wedding dresses, a custom Inesdisanto + a stunning Berta dress, Kaitie wore, both from Chris’s family’s shop, Bridal Beginning. It was a fabulous night for a fabulous couple + SHE was honored to play a part. Cheers to the new Mr. & Mrs!
