Pittsburgh Children’s Museum Wedding
Emily and Ryan’s Pittsburgh Children’s Museum wedding was filled with color. I mean, just look at that photo!
In fact, The Children’s Museum really was the perfect place for Emily and Ryan to express the unique vision they had for their wedding which was both fun and non-traditional. Their sense of style and fun are all through photos on this post. Ryan goofing around as he and his friends got ready cracks me up every time I look at it!
Ceremony in The Studio
Ryan watches as Emily walks down the aisle. They had their ceremony in The Studio section of the museum, which was once the Allegheny City Post Office.
Ryan and Emily exchange vows.
You can see that Emily was all smiles.
Ryan stomped on the glass about 5 times, just to make sure 😄
Emily’s expression was perfect when she and Ryan were introduced as husband and wife!
Ryan kissing Emily’s hand as they leave is one of my all-time favorite recessional photos.
Portraits
We took a short walk through the area around the museum for portraits. The steps to the Carnegie Library were our first stop.
Then we went over to the “Cloud Arbor” sculpture. The fine mist that comes out of the standing pipes was turned off that evening, although it might have felt good on that hot summer evening.
An enthusiastic group of friends was waiting for the couple!
Reception in the Big Red Room
Emily and Ryan’s first dance was to Guns ‘n Roses’ “Sweet Child of Mine” 🎸
Emily’s dad Lee gave a very funny speech.
Lee called out Ryan for wearing a tie, which is a rare occurrence.
Next up, Ryan’s mom gave a very lovely and moving speech.
Cake!
Parent’s dances in the Big Red Room.
The Hora is always a lot of fun!
Emily’s mom had a great time!
The dance floor was packed for the rest of the evening.
Fittingly, PNC Park had a Skyblast that night. The fireworks provided a fitting backdrop at the end of a wonderful evening!
