Haren & Caitlin | The Porch Schenley Park Wedding Pittsburgh

Cue the happy tears because Haren and Caitlin’s first look was pure perfection! It was a small wedding day tailored to suite them in downtown Pittsburgh. Their first look was at the University of Pittsburgh’s Frick Fine Arts Library with a ceremony and reception at The Porch in Schenley Park.

Haren met Aaron at The Porch before moving over to the Frick Fine Arts Library and Caitlin and I were soon to follow. The sun was shining leaving a warm romantic glow for photos. Haren’s face as he say Caitlin was priceless! Caitlin glowed in her elegant gown.

At every wedding, I always try and snag a photo of our couples that is more of a landscape style. A photo pulled back a little with the couple in the photo but not fully the focal point. It was a photo Aaron and I loved from our wedding, a favorite actually. Even if it’s not our couples favorite, it’s become our signature photo.

Those sweet grins on their faces are darling!

Stunning, simply stunning Caitlin!

Aaron and I finished their bride and groom portraits at the University of Pittsburgh Frick Fine Arts building then strolled over to The Porch for family photos before their ceremony.
Simple greenery created a warm and romantic look inside The Porch restaurant for their ceremony and dinner after.

They chose a self uniting ceremony with family and friends reading passages and sharing well wishes before their first kiss and the smashing of a glass.

My favorite was their exchange of vows which were the most lovely speeches that they wrote for one anther. Each speech contained sweet sentiment, memories and playful moments making it so personal. Their family and friends laughed and smiled right along with them.
