When looking for a wedding venue we knew we wanted something more unique and fun, and the Warhol was a perfect fit. We did have some initial hesitation about the quick turnaround time from the museum closing to our event starting, but we were reassured by the Warhol team that they do it all the time and it would not be an issue. And it truly was not an issue at all, they are PROS and had the room set up perfectly even ahead of schedule. There are also so many activities / fun activations you can have at your wedding with the Warhol like gallery tours, a custom photobooth, and screen printing. The food was also excellent! When people ask where you're having your wedding and you say "The Andy Warhol Museum" be prepared for a lot of "oh wow" and "that's so cool" because it really is so special to be able to host an event here and guests will love it. We had the absolute pleasure of working with Dylan and LaSawn on the Carnegie Museums/Warhol team and Heather from the Culinaire catering team who were all so wonderful and kind. Extra-special shoutout to Heather because we worked with her from day one and she is just AMAZING, and truly one of the best parts of our wedding planning process. If you're considering the Warhol for your wedding, you won't regret it!

Hi! I’m Ashley of Ashley Sara Photography! I'm a luxury wedding photographer based in Pittsburgh, but I capture love stories all over the globe! I've been to Germany, Italy, Bahama's, Mexico and countless states in the US, all because two people fell in love with each other, and then with my work. My significant other offers videography and we both are familiar with Super 8 and film so together, we offer everything you could need!

Ashley Sara Photo is hands down the best choice you will ever make! She is not only the most incredibly talented photographer, but also the kindest soul. You will be in awe of her skills and want to be best friends with her all at the same time. She made our wedding day 1000x better and we had the best time exploring our venue with her while capturing the most beautiful memories. I look at my wedding pictures at least once per day because they are just that good. I am someone who hates photos of myself and does not enjoy being in front of a camera, and she somehow managed to give me literally hundreds of beautiful photos that I adore. She’s also a pretty awesome hype woman and will give you plenty of confidence boosts. We already have 1 year anniversary pictures scheduled with her and plan to use her for every other occasion we can because who doesn’t need more beautiful photos they love!? To sum this up, just hire her. I promise you will not regret it :)

I would highly recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a bridal stylist! I booked her for my wedding back in 2020. When covid hit, we decided to have a small wedding at a brand new venue as well as plan a new reception at another new venue for a later date. She was extremely flexible during this time and traveled over and hour to help me feel perfect on my wedding day. She was confident, efficient, and genuinely cared about making sure everyone was 100% satisfied with their hair. I have a very challenging head of hair to deal will and Courtney handled it with ease. I received so many compliments, and it still looked perfect by the end of the night! Not to mention she is just the sweetest; she really helped me stay calm during the day while getting ready. You will not regret working with this lovely talented lady!!!”

It's YOUR friggin' wedding and I promise you tons of laughs, creativity, and killer photos. I love working with people and find inspiration in REAL life couples. We have fun, we get silly... hell, we even get a little weird if you're into it (safe word is, "Camera Shy") 😳. At the same time I obsess over crafting exceptional and authentic images. So whether you're some groovy hip kids or a couple of squares, let's go make some art together. I’ll put in the blood, sweat, and tears… you just show up. By the end of your wedding day, we will be best friends. I believe so much in marriage and weddings and truly enjoy being a part of them.

I feel like more than just a client with Mike, he took the time to listen to our ideas, gave some great advice and knocked it out of the park! I would recommend him 100%

I hired these guys in a pinch and they were quick to get to work on asking us what we wanted in our photos. Then the wedding came and they were polite, kind, and were not distracting with taking photos in important moments. The result was outstanding. They captured our favorite moments in exquisite detail, as well as in different angles. I can’t recommend them enough!

I want to capture your essence. People are often nervous when you begin to photograph them, but I have no expectations for you- aside for you to simply be your authentic self! I want to capture your silly, your tender, your sweet, your love. I’ll guide you and your loved one to interact in natural, timeless ways to create art that will have the honor of living in your home and being a part of your family for generations to come. I don't create for the now- I create for the forever.

We hired Anne has our part of our wedding day vendor dream team, and I am so, so thankful that we did. It was one of the best decisions we made. Anne is an incredible photographer. Her work is dreamy & ethereal, yet perfectly captures the essence of her subjects. Her work is also versatile - her candids and styled shots are both fabulous. Anne worked with us on engagement photos, so we had the chance to get a sense of her style and personality, and it was love at first photo. She is so warm and effervescent that we immediately felt at ease. Both my husband and I aren't super comfortable in front of the camera, but Anne's encouragement made the photoshoot fun. She even brought treats for our pup, which endeared him immediately. The engagement photos were incredibly and perfectly captured our romantic garden party vibe and our connection as a couple. Leading up to our wedding, Anne worked closely with our planner to make sure that our timeline, photo locations, and shot list were in perfect order. She worked tirelessly to create a rain plan that eased my panic when we couldn't take photos inside the hotel. On day of, Anne & her assistant arrived promptly at our bridal suite and quickly got to work doing flat lays, detail shots, etc. before moving seamlessly into first look and group shots. Her sense of humor kept our group laughing and made sure the groom didn't get tired of photos. She even helped carry my shoes and got my husband water when he lost his voice. It was like having a close friend at our wedding to cheer us on. Of course, the photos were incredible! Our preview was full of gems, I can't choose my favorite one. I can't imagine having to pick for the full album! She captured our love for each other and made sure we had a good time the whole day. tl;dr Hire Anne because she is very talented photographer and her team is fabulous, and also hire Anne because she is an amazing person. She will make your wedding day even dreamier.

Options are really endless here. They allowed us to utilize the furniture they had on hand or bring in any rentals. We liked what they had so we needed to rent very little and were happy to share recommendations for other vendors. The space is sizable but still has has a nice intimate and warm feel and they were actively distilling during our ceremony/reception, which was cool to see. The bartenders are kind and talented and all the craft liquors (which are made on site) are top notch. No bottom shelf here. Excited to visit and try the rum created during our vows!

Hi, I'm Angela! Enough about me. This is about YOU. You want your wedding to be a reflection of you and your values, and perhaps you're thinking of having an eco-friendly wedding. But you're quickly becoming overwhelmed by all the information and inspiration out there and realizing that there's so much to do. That's where I come in. I help take the wedding planning stress off your hands so that you can sit back and enjoy the time leading up to your wedding. The goal is for you to look around on your wedding day with a warm and fuzzy feeling, knowing that your wedding was earthy-friendly and true to YOU as a couple.

We can't say enough good things about Angela! When we hired a day of coordinator, I thought we would do all the planning ourselves and she would check in right before and that was all. Angela exceeded our every expectation. From the moment we hired her, she sent us multiple resources, check ins, checklists and recommendations, coordinated with vendors and so much more. She put us at ease and made us feel like we knew what we were doing (we definitely did not feel like it at times). The day of she completely went above and beyond (working in 96-degree weather no less). She took everything out of our hands on the day of our wedding and allowed us to enjoy every moment of it. Her hard work even let us enjoy the following day, by having everything we needed cleaned up the night before and packed away for us to easily get the next day. There was so much thought and effort that went into everything she did. And I loved the eco-friendly recommendations throughout the planning process. Booking Angela was the best decision we made during the entire wedding planning process!

Do you know what I love the most about my job? People. The people that I photograph. The people that I get to know. Their lives, and the story that has helped to shape them. There are never two stories that are the same. Life is beautiful that way. I began my journey as a photographer happenstance- I took some photography college credits because I loved the art, and wanted to fulfill a degree in it. Photography helped me to outwardly express the visions that I dreamed of, the visions that I couldn’t express into words.

Not only as a wedding and event planner but as a client, we have worked numerous times with Lavender Leigh! Leigh is so easy to work with, sweet, kind and overall just amazing at what she does! The natural light she looks for always is classic and timeliness and her pictures are stunning. I, Ali, had a boudoir done with Leigh for my husband as a gift for our first anniversary. I was nervous and overall never super confident about my body. Leigh made my boudoir session not only turn out beautiful but she helped me love my body and enjoy the process and the session. It was a wonderful experience and I am SO glad I did it! I will cherish the photos forever. Leigh is organized and timely. She is professional yet friendly and personable. Barry is so much fun and the guys of the weddings always have a good time with him! These two are a wonderful pair and are so good at what they do! We cannot recommend them enough.

Pastries A-La-Carte created a beautiful cake for our wedding day! Communication with them was easy and smooth throughout the planning process. We ordered both a gluten-free sheet cake and a sweetheart cake. The sheet cake was a hit - even our gluten-free guests raved about how moist and delicious it was! Our sweetheart cake was so tasty too. We did have a small hiccup when I picked up the cake - it was in a different system. But they brought the cake out and everything was fine. Despite that little scare, our cake looked and tasted perfect on the big day. The whole cake was beautifully decorated and added a lovely, sweet touch to our wedding. We were so pleased with their work and prices. I would happily order from Pastries A-La-Carte again!

Congratulations to all the beautiful brides! These have been trying times to say the least. Life still goes on and like you, I was planning a wedding in the midst of it all. Throughout my process of trying to find vendors and all the things that come with every bride-to-be's well deserved special day, I was shocked at the cost of everything. I am a huge DIY fan if its doable. I do know, however, that not everyone is in a position to go that route so I started my own company dedicated to providing custom, high quality bouquets and other floral and misc wedding decor. No bride should have to sacrifice beautiful flowers on their big day.

Absolutely amazing! They showed up early and decorated the entire venue, including the ceremony aisle and all the details in between. I couldn’t have asked for a better florist!!

I’m Dawn, and I photograph your real, blissed-out wedding moments so you can relive them later. With me, there is no separating the now from the nostalgia, because I always deliver both.

I cannot stress enough how incredible our wedding photographer, Dawn, was throughout our entire wedding journey. From the moment we booked her, she went above and beyond to ensure that every special moment leading up to our big day was beautifully captured. Dawn's talent behind the lens is truly remarkable. She has a unique ability to capture the essence of every occasion, from our engagement photos to our bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day. Her attention to detail and artistic eye resulted in a stunning collection of photographs that we will treasure for a lifetime. What sets Dawn apart is her genuine passion for her craft.

She took the time to get to know us as a couple, allowing her to capture our personalities and love story in the most authentic way possible. Dawn's dedication to her work was evident in every interaction we had with her. She was always prompt, professional, and extremely organized. She effortlessly coordinated with our other vendors, ensuring that everything ran smoothly and seamlessly. Her positive energy and calming presence on our wedding day were a true blessing. Not only did Dawn capture all the big moments, but she also beautifully documented the small, intimate details that made each event so special. Every smile, tear, and embrace was preserved in her photographs, allowing us to relive those precious memories over and over again. The final result of Dawn's work left us speechless. The quality and composition of her photographs were simply breathtaking. She has a remarkable ability to create timeless images that evoke emotions and tell a story. Her skillful editing enhanced the natural beauty of each photo, resulting in a collection that exceeded our wildest expectations.

Hello! My name is Shannon Cole and I am a professional makeup artist in the Pittsburgh area! In 2011, I began my journey at Sephora, where I became a certified makeup artist. Now nine years later, I work as a full-time freelance makeup artist. There is truly nothing in the world that makes me happier than helping others to feel beautiful and empowered with the amazing power of makeup.

Absolutely thrilled with the experience I had with Shannon Cole for my wedding and bridal party’s makeup. She was on-time, (7:30am start) incredibly talented and took so much time answering all of my niece’s makeup and skincare questions, they have never felt more special! Her professionalism and passion for her craft was evident on all of our faces, we looked amazing. Shannon was responsive through email and her pricing was true to her estimate. I was running out of time to do a trial, but based off of her Instagram I knew I didn’t even need one. Her signature look suits every bride and I have never felt prettier in my entire life. The makeup lasted all day and night, even through tears. I received countless compliments from friends and family and the pictures look amazing too. Not only is she beyond skilled, but her personality made the experience so enjoyable and relaxed. We honestly just had so much fun getting ready together. If you are lucky enough to find an open availability with Shannon, do not think twice and BOOK that now. She made my wedding day incredible, and I will be asking for a one on one makeup lesson for a Christmas present. Thank you, Shannon!!

Happy Out derives from Irish origin- ‘a feeling or strong emotion that you can’t quite put into words about how you are feeling in that moment…blissful, joyful, or pleased is just not enough to convey to others about the butterflies you have in your stomach and that permanent smile you can’t wipe of your face.’ So why is this important? — This is the feeling you should have throughout the entire wedding photography + videography experience, and more importantly when you look back at your once in a lifetime moments in your portraits and film.

The team at Happy Out photography is top notch! Their attention to detail is just what you need on your wedding day. They’re kind, enthusiastic and a have calm presence - just wonderful to be around! Beautiful imagery and video - we love working with this team!

PBG is an absolutely stunning location to get married at. The grounds are well kept, clean, and even individually catered to your group (the staff trimmed up greenery just to suit our wedding party!). It is also extremely convenient to have the ceremony and reception all in the same location. This was accessible to all of our guests and made transportation very straightforward. The PBG staff are ready to transport the bride/groom and photographers around the garden grounds for private photos, which made leaving and rejoining the party quick and easy. PBG does require you to individually hire catering and equipment, which allows your wedding day to be highly customizable but can also be overwhelming if you are doing this on your own (depends on how much work you want to put in!). They are also pretty flexible on different customizations you want. The only thing we wish went differently was the communication with the vendor - leading up to our wedding weekend they were quick to communicate via email or phone. However, on the rehearsal and the day of we felt unsure of what to expect. For example, when we arrived for the rehearsal our wedding group was left outside for 15-20 minutes without access to the venue and no information on why our rehearsal was starting late. When we tried to contact the team their phones were not picking up, and a staff member in the adjacent office for horticulture told us to our faces "we can't help you." The late start was because of vendor coordination - which we totally understand, but not knowing why we were waiting outside in the sun for that long was upsetting. Once we had access, we were not given any information on how the rehearsal would run, and it wasn't until at least 20 minutes late from our start time that the event managers interrupted our officiant to let us know that they would handle the logistics and cues. Once we had the direction it went smoothly, but similarly on the day of our wedding we were not told that the staff would assist with our entrances which led me (the bride) to panic about 15 minutes before our entrances until we were told that it would be handled. I feel that the PBG events team could easily smooth this out with an emailed outline of the rehearsal plan and what to expect on the day of, or to reach out with a day-of contact number.

I’m a multicultural wedding photographer based in Pittsburgh, PA and serving the surrounding area. My style is truly unique. I would describe it as a cross between modern, fine art and documentary-style photography. What makes me unique is that I do not have a single form of editing style like you see on most photographers instagram pages. I believe each image is unique, and you cannot edit every image the same way. If you like darker edits, I do those. But if you like more vibrant edits, I also do those. So let’s talk about what YOUR style is and how with my artistic eye we can create photos truly personalized to your event.

Simply put: Hire Danny NOW! We love his work.. and him as a person He was always on time and responded quickly to any questions we had... We didn’t want a traditional look to our photos... His artistic eye and edits gave us a truly unique look to our photos! Our photos were so awesome and loved that my brother and his fiancé are using him for their wedding too!!!
