    Ooh me, me! *raises hand*

    I'm a grad student at Pitt, live in Squirrel Hill and we're getting married May 2nd outside at a place called the Alpine Room at SNPJ in Enon Valley, PA. www.alpineroom.com

    @ JeniRae -- I've been to SNPJ, but never in the Alpine Room.  I called for some info, but they were booked on the date we wanted.  My friend's brother had his reception there and, from the pictures I saw, it looked really nice!  An outside ceremony there would be beautiful!

    I'm getting married in Pittsburgh!  I went to PITT, FI went to IUP.  We're getting married on September 18, 2010 at St. Paul Cathedral in Oakland.  We've got site visits lined up at a bunch of hotels downtown for the reception (since I live in MD half of the guests will have to stay overnight and it's just easier this way).  Did anyone else do the hotel reception there?

    Mrs. Pineapple's reception was at a hotel downtown. Look for some of her old posts, she might have tips...

    Pittsburgh bride here too!  My FI is a Pitt Grad and I'm a Penn Stater, but we both grew up in town and are getting married at the Heinz History Center in October.  I'm very excited and couldn't be more proud of our great city!!

    Actually Mrs. Pineapple's reception was at The River's Club.

    Hi all!  I live downtown and work at Carnegie Mellon!  We're getting married May 30, 2009 - almost 100 days from now!  We're both transplants from Boston.  All of our guests will be from out of town.  So getting hotel space has been super crucial!

    At mnmgirl08 - I'm actually having my ceremony and reception downtown at the DoubleTree.  So far they've been so wonderful to work with!

    I'm a Pittsburgh bride, too!  I'm getting married north of Pittsburgh at my college alma mater in Amish Country this May :)  While I am using a few vendors from that area, I've been able to take advantage of excellent Pittsburgh vendors as well!

    Where is everyone having their ceremonies?

     Our's is at St. Paul Cathedral in Oakland.  We're going up to PGH this weekend (from Baltimore/DC area) to look at reception places and meet our priest (FI's distant cousin).  I'm so excited to see potential places.  And get back to Pitt.  I love that city.

    Hi Everyone!  I was married last May (1 year anniversary is so close) but still check in to weddingbee every now and then!  We were married at Phipp's Garden center and had our reception in Oakmont, so if anyone is looking for vendors in those areas, I would be happy to provide my recommendations!

    Hey Pittsburgh brides! Although neither my FI nor I are actually local to Pittsburgh, we decided to get married in the glorious Steel City! We are both Pitt alums and he was in the Heinz Chapel Choir for 4 years, and he told me the only wedding-related detail he truly cares about is having the ceremony there, so Pittsburgh it is. It's my favorite place in the whole world and we plan on eventually settling down there one day, so I can't wait! I haven't been down yet to scope out venues in person, but from my Internet searching, my favorite reception venues are Pittsburgh Center for the Arts and the Frick. Anybody have any thoughts on those?

    Thanks, DE! The SNPJ was great. The wedding was outside and we used the big barn there as our portrait background. I haven't added to the gallery, but have worked on my Bio some. :)
