When my husband and I were looking for a wedding venue we had such a hard time! We were right in the middle of trying to book with all the Covid brides rescheduling their weddings. Everywhere was pretty much booked. We wanted outside, fall, but still covered in case of bad weather. I signed up for the knot and looked up outdoor venues near me and the Hyatt house came up. Neither of us heard of them before so once we looked through the pictures I really wanted to go get a tour! Carolyn Messaged us back pretty fast and scheduled us for a tour. Since then it was a breeze! Carolyn and Julie showed us around explained everything perfectly and answered all of our questions. They were both SOOOO nice and I couldn’t have been happier to book with them! The process was so easy we worked with Julie the whole time after that and she was great! Any questions I had she would respond that day and if not literally the next day. When she says she wears her heart on her sleeve she truly means it! Rehearsal she made sure everything and everyone knew what they were doing and where they had to be. The wedding day… I don’t think I could imagine anyone else helping besides Julie. She checked on me, made sure I had everything I needed, made sure all the bridesmaids were good, and even my children! The staff is also EXTREMELY nice! The whole stay they were amazing, sweet, caring, just all around once again perfect!! Our guests gave us so many compliments throughout the night all the way up till right now we are still getting compliments on how beautiful the wedding was and how nice the staff was. And I’m so happy that not just ourselves but our guests had a great experience with them too. Julie set everything up and it’s like she took the vision right out of my head and put it onto the tables and everywhere else. And not to mention if it weren’t for Julie my dress would have never gotten bustled up right 😂. It was truly the most perfect day in every way possible! I can not thank Julie enough for everything she has done for us and the time she took to make our day so special and perfect! I’m sad it’s all over because I’m going to miss her so much but I will be stopping down to see her when I’m in the area! If you want a stress free, beautiful, memorable, and perfect wedding… this is your venue and team!

The team at The Terrace at Hyatt House was incredible! Our banquet director, Julie, was a God send and I couldn’t be more grateful for her attention to every detail, making sure we had an evening that was anxiety free and exceeded our expectations! I will recommend this venue to everyone any chance I get. The space is gorgeous, with amazing views of the river and the city, and the reception area after dark with the lighting they provide is spectacular! ( we highly recommend including the fire table and seating area for your guests!)
Our wedding and reception were truly a dream come true and we know that Julie and her team had everything to do with that!

We loved our wedding in October at the Terrace at Hyatt House! The venue was the perfect space for our 115 guests. We loved the fluidity between the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception spaces. Julie was absolutely fantastic. She was so responsive to email leading up to the event. During the event, she did everything in her power to make sure every detail was perfect. The staff were all wonderful. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and we would definitely recommend this venue/Julie to anyone!

When my husband and I visited the Terrace, we knew immediately that it was the perfect place to host our wedding, and we weren't wrong. We've gotten rave reviews from our family, who helped us plan and set up, and our guests, who had a great time!
The space itself is open and comfortable, with plenty of places to add special touches, and the view on the river is incredible. Off the actual terrace, there is a huge room to use for getting ready and storing gifts, decorations, and odds and ends, and another to place your buffet, cookie table, and whatever else you'd like to serve guests. Our hair and makeup team told us repeatedly how great it was to have a dedicated getting-ready room with plenty of space to gather and maneuver so close to the ceremony location.
We chose to have our ceremony and reception at the Terrace, and it made planning so much easier. Our guests could relax while they flipped the space and then enjoy a cocktail hour 5 minutes after our ceremony ended. A large number of our guests were from out of town and chose to stay at Hyatt House over the weekend, and having everyone in the same space really added to the experience.
Lastly, I cannot say enough good things about Julie and the Hyatt House team. They are efficient and professional, but their help is always personal. We felt like a distinct couple, not a generic bride and groom, and Julie was always available, no matter how small of an issue or question we had.

The Hyatt House-Pittsburgh South Side is the BEST wedding venue! I recommend this venue to everyone. It is the perfect Pittsburgh wedding and made my dream wedding come true!

The Terrace was the perfect venue for our July 4th wedding! Julie and her staff go above and beyond, they take care of everything! Julie was available and prompt to answer any and all of my questions along the way. She was also on top of everything including the weather! She made sure all was taken care of when the weather took a turn, dancing in the rain was a blast!
Everything about the space was beautiful and comfortable, access was easy for my mom, who uses a wheelchair. I can not say enough about how wonderful our wedding day was!

The Terrace is the only venue we looked at prior to booking, and we absolutely loved the space and everything about it! We had our ceremony and reception both at the Terrace and were able to decorate the space as we pleased to add our own touches. The view is beautiful and price is reasonable compared to other hotel venues in the Pittsburgh area. Their coordinator Julie is fantastic and really made the whole process easy and less stressful, as we did not have a planner. She and her team did all the decorating- we just had to share our requests and vision for the day! Julie made sure our day flowed perfectly, was attentive to all details, and was wonderful in communicating with our vendors. We had the most special day and would definitely recommend this space

The Terrace at Hyatt House is the place to have your wedding. Julie, the event coordinator, did an amazing job working with us and planning our wedding. She went out of her way to be sure all of our requests were satisfied. For example, she searched for our specialty cocktail ingredients until she could find them and made sure they were made to perfection. She does a great job working with your vendors and has amazing working relationships with all of them. Not to mention, the day of the wedding, nothing went wrong. It was such a peace of mind knowing Julie had the entire day under control so I was able to relax as we got ready! Highly recommend this location for your next wedding or event!

We loved everything about our wedding at the Hyatt! The view is amazing, the hotel is in a great location, the staff was so helpful!! I would not have changed a single thing. Julie, the event coordinator went above and beyond. As a bride who had to plan her wedding from Colorado, she may every step of the way so easy. She truly was incredible!! I was so thankful to have her during this planning process especially the week leading up/ weekend of the wedding. I could not recommend her and the Hyatt enough.

The MOST committed and dedicated team! They were so responsive and great with communication. On the day of, Julie was so willing to go above and beyond to make whatever happen. She has a great eye for detail and was willing to change things last minute if needed. The venue itself was clean, beautiful and very well taken care of. All of the tables and chairs look clean and brand new. Julie and her team were the best to work with and did so much of the work that I didn’t have to think about any of it!

I cannot recommend this venue enough! Julie and her team were fantastic throughout the entire process and the wedding day itself. She was professional, helpful, and just an absolute joy to have around us. Our guests agreed too! We received so many compliments on how beautiful the venue was and just how wonderful the staff was from the check-in desk to the valets, to the bartenders, everyone. Our guests also loved the terrace! They loved being able to sit by the fire or look out over the river and still be a part of the party. If you want a stress-free and fun wedding, please please please book them!

As the mother of the bride, I recently had the opportunity to meet Julie from The Terrace at Hyatt House Pittsburgh- South Side.
When my daughter and son in law meet Julie last year, in the planning of there wedding, they connected with Julie from the beginning. Julie was there for the wedding rehearsal and the day of the wedding. She was a true professional from start to finish.
I can't thank Julie enough for everything she did and we so appreciate all the details. She exceeded my expectations, being organized, accessible, attentive to detail and caring for everyone involved. Everything went smoothly and the service was impeccable.
Simply said, the night was magical for my daughter and son in law. They both will have amazing wedding memories that will last a lifetime.
I would highly recommend Julie, as she was a awesome wedding planner from The Terrace at Hyatt House- South Side.

We can't say enough great things about Julie and her team at The Terrace. First off, the venue is beautiful and offers a lot built in with their pricing. Secondly, Julie makes sure that the couple and their family/friends are 100% comforatable and happy from planning to execution. The venue location is great as it offers lodging and is within walking distance of some great cafes and bars. We will suggest this venue to any couple we know in the area!

I am SO confident in saying that Julie completely made our wedding experience. She is truly one of kind and is so amazing at what she does. She is very detailed oriented and so quick to respond to any questions you may have (as small as that may seem, it’s huge to a stressful bride!) .. whatever the Hyatt pays her, they should double it - seriously! She helped set up our entire ceremony and reception (and with the help of tropical storm Ophelia - completely change it last minute to even been an a more perfect setting). We love Julie and look forward to stopping in just to say hello or stay at the Hyatt for a night out in Pittsburgh.

The Terrace was the best of both world for us - an outdoor tent wedding in the city! It was perfect for our summer wedding reception. All of our guests enjoyed their stay in the hotel, the location (so much to do now in the South Side!), and the reception. You have the freedom to make your vision come to life in this space.
If anything - this place is the best because of Julie, the coordinator! She truly goes above and beyond to make sure everything goes exactly the way you want and she makes sure you don’t lift a finger the weekend of your wedding 🙏 she is hands down the BEST I’ve ever met.

We loved this venue right away when we toured and met Julie. As soon as we left we were in agreement that we wanted to book our wedding here. We are very happy with the experience we had with our venue. From the start, Julie was very easy to work with and available to us for any questions we had throughout the process. We communicated over email with her many times and always got prompt responses and answers to our questions. One of the best things about this venue is that they took care of all of the set up/ clean up for us on the day of the event. We were really happy to be able to enjoy the night with our guests following the reception and go across the street to one of the bars instead of staying behind to clean up. Julie and her team had the ceremony and reception area set up perfectly for us and everything looked beautiful! The next day everything was ready for us to take home in a conference room as well.
Overall we would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a fun place to hold your wedding in the SouthSide Works area. If I were to go back I would book with them over again without a doubt!

Julie and her staff are so great! We had an amazing experience with having our wedding here. Everything was planned to a T and the day of coordination was spectacular. It ended up raining but Julie made sure everything was perfect and moved under the tent. It was an amazing time! We both enjoyed ourselves and we’re not stressed by the small stuff day of. The rehearsal was quick and simple and perfectly staged! We loved our team and Julie!

The Terrace at Hyatt House, but more specifically Julie, was literally the best venue my husband and I could have asked for. We got married in Maui and decided to throw a Newlywed Luau as our “reception” for friends and family. Julie made the whole experience amazing. She truly created our vision and brought Maui to the Burgh. Even with the threat of weather, we were not worried at all because the tent was huge (we had about 150 guests) and Julie put our minds at ease and was ready for any potential back up plans. Luckily the rain held off and the night was a huge success. We can’t recommend this venue enough! It was literally stress free and that’s saying something when planning a wedding!

We had our wedding May 2023 and I would rate this venue and my experience a 10/10! They have the best price in the city, not to mention all that is included within that price.
Also, I will never forget our coordinator Julie!! She is simply amazing! She was there every step of the way and was so kind to answer all of my questions. I truly can't thank her enough for all of her hard work and making my vision come to life!
I would choose The Terrace all over again, and would highly recommend this venue.
Thank you Julie, staff and The Hyatt House Pitt-Southside for a day I will never forget!

We are so happy that we had our wedding and reception at The Terrace! The planning process with Julie was amazing, and she fielded all of our questions promptly and thoroughly. She went above and beyond to help make everything run as smoothly as possible. The venue is beautiful, unique and located in a great spot for visitors to explore the city. I would book this venue a thousand times over. Not too mention the accommodations in the hotel are lovely! Nearly all of our guests were from out of town and we heard from several people that they loved their stay. BOOK YOUR SPECIAL DAY HERE!!

Highly recommend having your wedding here! I had my wedding 7-8-23 and they made it a breeze. Julie worked her butt off making the day perfect, she is amazing and even flew back and forth to a funeral out of town twice to make sure she was there for it. The rooms at the hotel are beautiful as was the venue. Having the hoffbrahaus next door for rehearsal and pins mechanical next door for the after party made this so convenient and fun for guests. Obviously it was a little hot as a July wedding but after dinner it cooled off and didn’t bother me personally. Julie and Carolyn were super responsive and answered all 100 of my emails throughout the year. If your wedding is 150 or under this is a no brainer.

Julie and her staff were absolutely amazing to work with. We received so much positive feedback from our family and friends about how top-tier both the venue and staff were. They were very prompt with their responses to any questions we had and incredibly accommodating to our requests. We did not have to stress about the venue set up or tear down because they did it all for us, and did not rush us to get all of our decorations out of the room they were stored in the next day. The hotel rooms were beautiful, clean, and good sizes, and it's in an amazing location with Pins and several other restaurants being right nearby. I can not say enough good things about Julie and the venue.

My daughter and son-in-law's wedding was June 17, 2023 at the beautiful Terrace at Hyatt House Pittsburgh-South Side. It could not have been a more perfect venue with the perfect Director of Banquets, Julie Hutto. From day one, I felt confident that it was going to be a perfect day with Julie as our wedding coordinator. She was informative, experienced, pleasant and always available anytime I had a question (or twenty). I NEVER felt anxious about any aspect of the wedding. The venue was beautiful, clean and the perfect location. The staff was pleasant and always available if we needed anything. I highly recommend this venue and Julie Hutto.

The Hyatt team went above and beyond for my wedding! When you are booking a venue, you should also think about who is helping you with your big day. Julie handles everything and pays attention to every tiny detail. She was very responsive of every phone call and email, answered all of my questions and always made me feel comfortable. From decoration set up, to mimosa deliveries, groomsmen herder, to take down she had a hand in everything. Not only was the venue beautiful, but centrally located to bars, bakeries, food trucks, DOG PARK, it couldn’t of been better for my guests! Of all the money spent for my wedding, having my wedding here with Julie, Carolyn, Dan and their team was INVALUABLE. The hotel was clean, accommodating to my guests, rooms were spacious and fully furnished with a kitchen. I truly can not say enough about this venue, they made all of my dreams come true.

Not to mention, Julie was so attentive to the grooms and my personal needs throughout the day. Truly made us feel so special, and we hope she knows how much we appreciate her and her skills!!

If I had to do it all over again, I would pick The Terrace 100 times over. The venue is absolute perfection - the location is gorgeous (plenty of spots to take great wedding photos), it's convenient, and provides the perfect mix of indoor/outdoor setup. I would be remiss not to mention Julie and her amazing staff who took wonderful care of us and our guests the entire weekend. Julie is truly passionate about her couples and made planning our wedding so easy. She was so responsive and kind during our year of planning. Our guests were also in awe of her! I cannot recommend this venue enough to any future events!

I don’t think there are enough words out there to describe how amazing Julie is. The entire planning process, the month of, week of, and day of, I felt SO calm. I truly don’t think I would have been able to accomplish alot of things without her. She is truly an angel on earth. I would re plan and live our wedding day 20 times over knowing how helpful Julie was! My entire family and friends all kept saying how AMAZING of a job she did! She was able to make quick decision to still have my wedding outside when it started to rain out of nowhere and there was a quick stop and I am so so so thankful for that! If you are hesitant about booking this place - don’t be. Our entire weekend there was an absolute dream come true!!!!!!

From the very first email Julie was prompt and answered all my questions happily! She even went as far as recommending and contacting other vendors we used for our wedding! We still hear from our guests how fun, unique and beautiful the space was. Julie is a rare gem who cares about what she does and we still can't thank her enough for everything she did!

Julie and her team took every phone call, email, and texts from us as we planned a wedding from Tennessee. Her attention to detail and genuine kindness helped us through our wedding without a hitch! Whether it was finding a caterer, sourcing obscure decor, or getting a recommendation on good local restaurants, Julie was our go-to person and she made it all happen. We are very grateful for the entire team’s flexibility and help with making our wedding day magical!

I just had my wedding here in early September and it was the most beautiful day I could have ever imagined. The venue is stunning, even more so than the pictures but what really makes the terrace at Hyatt stand out is the event coordinator, Julie. It is like she literally took the wedding I have been imagining out of my head and made it come to life. She was there the entire day, from the early hours of me and my bridesmaids getting ready until the last call at the end of the night. She made sure me and my new husband had time to eat and had a drink in our hand all day. During wedding planning I got the advice from several people that something will go wrong during your day and to not let it get to you and I can truly say because of Julie not one thing went wrong that day. Thank you so much! And to future couples interested in this venue, book now!

I wanted to send an extremely complimentary feedback message for a tremendous Event Coordinator, Julie. I was impressed from the first encounter on my son’s wedding day to the end of Julie’s time with us on July 3, 2022. Julie seamlessly moved in at the right moments from major assistance with the wedding arch construction to rescuing a bustle-making attempt so my daughter-in-law could dance at the reception!
And there were so many very small but needed things she did throughout the morning & early afternoon prep prior to the 3:30p ceremony. All this while setting up The Terrace for the ceremony & reception in what appeared to be a solo act! She was calm, professional, courteous and appeared to genuinely care that the bride & groom were happy and prepared. She had an emergency box with all kind of little “helps” that came in handy when she had to repair a torn tie on the wedding gown bustle.
I told her she was the Pittsburgh J Lo of wedding coordinators!!! I meant it!
She told us when she was leaving and assured we met the person who would take over for the remainder of the reception as well as identifying the staff that was available for assistance. Thank you so very much Julie for assuring a beautiful wedding event at The Terrace!

The best decision we made when planning our wedding was choosing this venue. By choosing this venue you have access to Julie, who makes the entire wedding planning process extremely seamless. Julie answered so many questions before the wedding and on the day of she was there to assist with every little detail. Julie and her staff took care of all the decorating, set up/tear down, bartending, communicating with other wedding vendors/our wedding guests, etc. Overall the venue was perfect for us. The views were stunning and the end result was so much better than we ever could've imagined.

I could not have asked for a better venue with better staff to host my wedding. Everything went perfectly! My biggest stressor throughout all of my planning was unknown weather since the venue is outdoors. But even on the cold and very windy day we were given, the tent on the terrace was beautiful and felt like we were indoors with the heaters. Julie is wonderful to work with and made the process so easy. She makes it her mission to make sure your day is exactly what you dreamed of! 3 weeks later and all my guests are still talking about how beautiful the venue was. The accommodations are truly unmatched. Will forever be sad that I can’t relive the day!

I am SO glad we chose this venue. Julie is incredible and you can see she really has a passion for what she does. From day one, she always responded to my questions quickly. From the rehearsal to wedding day, she had everything down to a science and I knew that I didn’t have to worry about a thing. It was truly a weight off my shoulders to just relax and focus on myself! The view of the city is absolutely gorgeous. Our guests loved the convenience of everything in one place. I would highly recommend this venue - Julie will make your day exactly how you want it to be. I would choose this venue over and over again!

There isn’t enough time to share how AMAZING and WONDERFUL Julie is! She knew what I wanted, how I wanted it, and where to put it before I even knew what I wanted. She made my dream day come true and then some. I got married April 29th, 2022 on the terrace and it was beautiful! Everything was taken care of for my husband and I, Julie and her crew were in charge of everything from planning to setup to tear down and packing up. She made sure I had not a single worry that day and also made sure I had a drink in my hand at all times! We could not have asked for or had a better wedding and party than what Julie put on for us. We cannot thank her and her team enough! She was there for every question I had and any request I made, she is truly amazing. We love you Julie and Hyatt House! -The Greers

My husband and I got married on August 29, 2021 after our wedding being postponed twice due to COVID. In addition to our postponements, we also changed venues multiple times due to restrictions. After our 3rd postponement, we decided to have our wedding completely outside and that’s how we found the Terrace!! We met with Julie to check out the Terrace and knew immediately that we needed to book. Not only was the space exactly what we had envisioned for our wedding, but Julie was an absolute DREAM to work with. I seriously can’t say enough good things about her. She answered my MANY emails leading up to the wedding and put all my worries at ease. Even the week of the wedding, I was extremely nervous about the high temps predicted for our wedding day and Julie suggested purchasing mini fans for our guests to include on the ceremony chairs. We did just that and they were an absolute hit! Her and her team kept the day running very smoothly, set up all of our decorations perfectly, and even provided mimosas for my bridal party while we were getting ready! She truly though of everything and had every detail under control so that we could enjoy our day. We would book the Terrace again in a heartbeat- the venue & Julie (plus her team) are the absolute best and we can’t recommend enough!!

We could not have been more satisfied with choosing our wedding reception at the Hyatt. We loved the outdoor terrace space. I have never been to another wedding venue in Pittsburgh like this one. We were also truly impressed by our wedding coordinator Julie. She is a perfectionist and made sure every detail was perfect (even with the COVID restrictions).

Julie and her staff were amazing. She communicated with our vendors and handled everything to make our day seamless including some hiccups the day of that we had no idea happened! The space is a perfect blank slate to do with it as you wish and Julie makes the process easy but informative. We truly had the best night, highly highly recommend!!

Following suit with everyone else in these reviews and raving about Julie and her team! I honestly can say that I did not have to worry about 1 single thing for my rehearsal and the day of my wedding. Everything was handled and the vendors were all set up perfectly because of Julie. She made sure my husband and I were fed and never had an empty glass!
The terrace was absolutely beautiful and even though it rained in the morning, the rain set up was gorgeous under the tent. Julie was even willing to set everything up outside because the rain stopped! If i could go back in time I would choose this venue again and again! I will forever be grateful for the huge role she played on one of the most perfect and important days of my life! Honestly cannot say enough amazing things about this venue!

The Hyatt House was the perfect place for my wedding reception! The outdoor terrace was beautiful and I loved the option to have a fire pit and cornhole too; it allowed guests who didn't want to dance to have another space to hang out and relax. The event coordinator, Julie, is the BEST! She was so helpful with planning the reception. I know nothing about wedding planning, and she helped the day run smoother than I could have ever imagined. All of my guests raved about the venue and loved the convenience of having the reception at a hotel. I seriously cannot recommend this venue enough!!

The Hyatt House was an amazing venue. It was perfect and casual. Julie was a SAINT. She took all directions for what I was thinking for decorations and elevated it. She also was on the ball with timing, people, etc. honestly if it wasn’t for her, I wedding wouldn’t have been so successful and beautiful!

Julie and the staff at The Hyatt House were fantastic. We had to reschedule our wedding twice due to covid restrictions and every time we did, Julie was more than accommodating. She answered all my questions during the planning phase leading up to our big day. She was so attentive and on top of every single detail. On our wedding day, she made sure everything was perfect, and it truly was a perfect day! We loved having our wedding at The Terrace at Hyatt House. We could not recommend it more! Thank you SO much Julie and staff!

Julie and her staff were amazing! We planned our wedding in 5 months, and from the West Coast. Julie was always available to answer questions and made sure our day went smoothly. Our guests couldn't have been more complimentary of the staff- they were so kind and helpful!

When we canceled our wedding in California due to Covid we were scrambling to find a venue in Pittsburgh that was still available. I loved the Terrace at Hyatt House because it was outside, in the city with a nature vibe, everything was in one spot and we met and lived in the Southside so it had that nostalgia. I am SO glad we chose this spot. It was convenient for all of our guests to stay there, the Terrace itself is beautiful and spacious and the team there is incredible. Julie and Emily went above and beyond to work with us, our wedding planners and our vendors to make sure our day was perfect. They are so easy to communicate with and timely in their responses. It’s also nice because you can utilize a lot that they already have there (bar, bartenders, linens, chairs, tables, flatware/plates etc) but also we’re very accommodating when we brought some vintage chairs and additional things in. I cannot recommend this venue enough!
