Ben and Nina designed a wedding day that was uniquely theirs, weaving together thoughtful details, rich colors, and a special nod to their Pittsburgh roots. From start to finish, the celebration felt vibrant, personal, and full of love.

The day flowed seamlessly from a heartfelt outdoor ceremony to cocktail hour and a lively evening reception. Guests were welcomed with playful touches, including a handmade banner crafted by the bride herself and a “Be Our Guest” sign that set the tone for the celebration ahead.

The design drew inspiration from the hues of a ripe fig. Bridesmaids dazzled in shades of green and burgundy, while velvet green tablecloths and cozy lounge sets added warmth and depth to the reception space. Dazel Florals completed the vision with lush, artful arrangements that tied the entire design together in a stunning display of color and texture.

Nina looked radiant in a gown from Simply Blush Bridal, a timeless dress that perfectly matched the day’s elevated yet personal vibe. From her walk down the aisle to the last dance of the night, her look captured the essence of elegance and individuality.

Guests enjoyed a feast of raw oysters, tuna, smoked whiskey cocktails, and even an espresso martini tower to keep the energy high. Live music and dancing brought the night to life, but one of the sweetest moments came in the form of tradition, a Pittsburgh cookie table. Filled with homemade cookies baked by moms, aunts, and grandmas, it was a heartfelt reminder of family, love, and heritage.

Ben and Nina’s celebration was more than just a wedding, it was a colorful, joy-filled reflection of who they are, blending meaningful traditions with unforgettable style.
