My advice to couples planning an outdoor wedding? Make sure that you love all of the venue’s weather plans!

Sometimes plan B is as simple as a tent. Other times, it means moving either your ceremony or reception indoors. If you don’t love all of the venue’s options just as much as the outdoor plan, then it may not be the venue for you. And that’s ok! No one can control the weather, but having a great backup plan will bring peace of mind in knowing that everything will come together no matter what happens 🤍✨

First look moments with Ellie & Alex 🥹🖤✨

I can go on forever about how beneficial a first look is for your timeline (especially when your ceremony and reception are back to back at the same venue), but more importantly, doing a first look allows you more time with your partner! You’ll go into your ceremony feeling much more relaxed and at ease 🙌🏼

Alexa & Mike 🖤

The most beautiful day for the last of my fall weddings! Alexa & Mike made their wedding day a true experience for their guests with tons of food, live music and nods to their current city, including custom “terrible towels” and the most extravagant dessert display I’ve ever seen - the Pittsburgh Cookie Table! So happy to say that I’ve now done 3 Vieira weddings…their crowd never disappoints!! 🙌🏼

Cheers to the new Mr. & Mrs. Vieira!! 🥂🖤✨

Sarah & Matt 🤍

Sarah and I were in the drama club together in high school, so it was only fitting that her wedding took place in a theater setting! She and Matt booked with me almost two years prior to their date, and it was so special to be with them every step of the way, building a vendor team who made the day true to them! 🥹

Congrats to the one of the sweetest couples, the new Mr. & Mrs. Jacobs!! 🥂🤍✨

Bri & DJ 🤍

When Bri and I did our initial consultation all the way back in winter of 2023, she told she just wanted all of her guests to have a good time - I’d say we accomplished that!! Their wedding focused on family, with Bri giving the most beautiful bouquet dedication to her mom, and fun, with 200+ guests that never left the dance floor!! Every planning meeting was filled with so many laughs and I had so much fun working with these two! 🫶🏼

Cheers to the Navoczynskis!! 🥂🤍✨
