As you can tell, October is a crazy month for us, flying back and forth to Pittsburgh and with 2 double wedding weekends, but it has been worth it, what a great bunch of weddings.
As last week, the challenge was road closures. Renee and Blake's wedding was at James Center in McKees Rocks. This was Pittsburghs 250 th celebration with fireworks everywhere and many of the bridges and roads where closed. Renee and Blake had hoped to take a limo to a couple spots for pictures, but we soon realize it would be very hard.
I arrived a little early and decided to scout out an alternate location for photography. I was only a mile and a half away up a very steep hill when I found this beautiful carriage house. I knocked on the door of the house next door and this wonderful woman, Mary, greeted me. She was a little surprised that I liked the carriage house and gave me permission to use it and said I could go anywhere on her property including the gazebo and pond. Wonderful!
When I got back, I found all my favorite vendors there. Cheryl Bakin of Parkway Florist, DJ Mark Tishko and Larry Goida as the officiant. What a great day.
We got time after the wedding to go to the site and we had a blast. The wedding party had me laughing the whole time.
There where a few glitches with the hall but it was a fun night.
Thanks Renee and Blake!
