Laura + Jack | Heinz Chapel Wedding

We’ve been looking forward to this past weekend ever since we met with Laura and Jack (and they mentioned they would be having a Heinz Chapel wedding)! Their big day included black and gold (as their colors), a Bethel Bakery cake, a super fun bridal party, and lots of time for pictures between the ceremony and reception! And you couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day (especially with how it snowed earlier in the week)!

Laura and Jack are both finishing up Med School at Temple University in Philadelphia, so planning this wedding (in Pittsburgh) in just over 6 months was no small task! Even with that, the day went off without a hitch! I started off the day with the lovely ladies of Laura’s bridal party at Above All Hair Spa and Salon in Wexford while Mike was with the guys at Jack’s parent’s house. Both the guys and the ladies finished getting ready at the Sheraton Station Square before heading to Heinz Chapel to say their “I Do’s”! The reception was held back at the Sheraton which provided a gorgeous view of the Pittsburgh skyline, and we were able to make stops at Oakland, Schenley Park, the Roberto Clemente Bridge, and Mt. Washington in between!

We can’t thank Laura and Jack, their families and the bridal party enough for being so welcoming and friendly…we had a blast documenting the day and sharing in their fun and excitement! Thank you two for allowing us to be a part of your beautiful wedding day, and we wish you all the best and a life full of love and laughter. Never stop smiling, my friends!

Gotta love the Cathedral!

These two were ALL smiles, ALL day!

We were greeted by some unexpected visitors while taking group shots in Schenley Park. Thankfully, the bridal party seized the moment and cheered these guys on!

The dance floor was the place to be the entire night!

The first throw got stuck up in the light fixture (according to the Sheraton staff, this was a first), so Jack had to give it another try!

And these two (a couple) were a hoot!

Laura’s grandfather (who married them) was cracking some jokes after “winning” the anniversary dance!
