Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Kira + Cam

January 26, 2020

Kira + Cam’s wedding was straight out of a fairytale! Even though the weather threatened rain, that didn’t stop Kira + Cam from having the sweetest first look before their ceremony, picture proof below. After pictures were done, it was time to travel to the ceremony, at our sister company, Slate Event Studio.

The ceremony was intimate + beautiful under a massive arch overflowing with greenery + candlelight. Once guests moved to cocktail hour, the ceremony room was flipped to create the dinner reception room. The dinner side of the studio was filled with even more greenery + candlelight + created the perfect reception space for Big Burrito to serve their delicious food. It was a night full of love + laughter at Slate, which is always SHE’s favorite type of night. Congratulations again to Kira + Cam, we wish you many more days of love + laughter!

Sarah Jane + Brandon | Pittsburgh Wedding Planner

December 22, 2019

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! SHE loves a December wedding + last year Sarah Jane + Brandon had a perfect winter wedding with a classic design. Held at the Fox Chapel Golf Club, the scenery inside kept everyone warm with candlelight, traditional greenery + pops of burnt orange + red from Donati’s flowers. The mix of white + crème linens from Lendable Linens added to the chic design + let the gold + white chargers stand out.

Sarah + Brandon’s love for each other shined bright the entire day. From Brandon’s epic first look reaction when he saw his beautiful bride to-be Sarah in her stunning dress, to their first dance as husband + wife, it was a day to remember + the perfect way to wrap up the year. SHE adored working with this couple + wish them many more years of happiness + love.

Pittsburgh Wedding Planner | Marcia + David

February 14, 2019

Marcia + David’s wedding was the sweetest way to end {SHE}’s 2018 season. Not only was their wedding in Hershey Pennsylvania, home of the famous Hershey kiss, but their celebration lasted two days + brought us into 2019. Their ceremony was a romantic dream with floor to ceiling draping + a gorgeous platform stage + chuppah. After the ceremony, the guests enjoyed a long cocktail reception where they listened to the sounds of The Sterling Strings, a four string group from New York.

The next day, New Years Eve, was when the real party took place. Guests were transported to the Hershey Country Club for a moving cocktail reception. Not sure what a moving cocktail reception is, let {SHE} explain. The party starts in one room with food + beverage stations, then after awhile a door is opened to another two rooms where there is even more food + beverages. After a few speeches + a lot of delicious food, guests traveled to the final room where there was a massive dance floor, a balcony to watch fireworks, an amazing assortment of custom desserts + two DJ’s to keep guests dancing all night long. It was a party to remember + {SHE} was so happy to create this amazing celebration for our sweet couple Marcia + David.
