Carla and Mike’s Wedding at Soldiers and Sailors

Carla and Mike have a lot of really great people in their lives. They both grew up in Pittsburgh and they’ve made their permanent home in the South Hills.  Last weekend, their wonderful families and their extended network of close friends from all over the country (and the world) joined them in their hometown to celebrate their wedding day. They were married in a Catholic Mass at St Paul’s Cathedral in Oakland followed by a reception at Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Hall.

They hired a lot of wonderful vendors to help them celebrate their wedding including videography by Fineline Weddings, makeup by Julie of Pittsburgh Makeup, reception lighting by Gray Phoenix, and wedding reception entertainment with DJs from 2nd II None.

Their wedding day was very fun and memorable. Nicki and I were there to capture those memories starting when they were getting dressed for the day’s events. Carla and the bridesmaids readied themselves at the Holiday Inn in Oakland after they all finished a leisurely lunch together. Nicki was at Carla and Mike’s new home in Bethel Park. She explained that this moment began with one of the groomsmen helping Mike with his vest before turning into a train of silly groomsmen.

My favorite:

Congratulations, Carla and Mike! Have a fantastic honeymoon island hopping in Hawaii.
