Bianca and Pete met in Sewickley through friends.  They actually went to the same high school a few years apart.  They picked out her engagement ring together, and the jeweler called her when it was ready for pick up (oops!).  Pete proposed to her on their front porch last May.  

Bianca and Peter got married at St. James Catholic Church in Sewickley, then celebrated with their friends and family at the stunning Allegheny Country Club.  Their wedding was beautiful, elegant, and focused on their friends and family.   Judging by all the smiles, everyone enjoyed themselves immensely.

Laura & Ryan are the sweetest, most hard-working people. A week after their wedding, they BOTH finished up MBAs - how crazy is that!? For their wedding, they went with a winter/glam vibe, especially apparent in the champagne & gold decor, fur wrap, and abundant candles at their reception. I loved every second of it. You could just see how much they love each other.
