Wintergarden at PPG Place

ption. Shauna is an absolute dream to work with — she is always willing to answer your questions and is a very prompt communicator. The day before the wedding we also met Emily and Tiffany who made the day-of flow super smoothly. They were also fabulous to work with. Everything was set up and executed perfectly. To say the staff is a well-oiled machine doesn’t even capture how well the wedding day flowed and adhered to the timeline. The food is phenomenal — our parents were raving about it after our tasting; similarly, our guests are still talking about how amazing the food was!!! Kudos to the bartenders as well — our guests said there was never a line at the bar and the bartender even started to remember guests’ drink orders. Staff took special care of us as bride and groom to be sure we always had whatever we needed (drink orders, food from cocktail hour, etc.). We give our STRONGEST RECOMMENDATION to The Wintergarden. Thank you for helping to make our wedding day a dream come true!!!!!

kind, and honest throughout the entire planning process. The entire team at the Wintergarden was exceptional. Our guests are still raving about the venue, the service, and the food. We had so many people tell us it was the best wedding food they have ever had! Our wedding day could not have been more perfect! Highly recommend! ❤️

ing the city. The staff was so friendly and truly amazing at their jobs, the food was incredible (so many compliments from guests), and the planning was absolutely seamless. Shauna made everything so easy and was so responsive while planning. Tiffany and her team ran things the day of and everything was flawless. Could not recommend more!

night, everything was handled with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. The staff was organized, attentive, and incredibly responsive throughout the planning process. On the big day, everything flowed seamlessly and every detail was executed perfectly. They anticipated our needs before we even had to ask and made sure we were able to relax and soak in every single moment. The venue itself is breathtaking — with an atmosphere that feels straight out of a dream. Our guests are still talking about how stunning and unique the space was. It gave our wedding this timeless, romantic feeling that we’ll never forget. Listen to Shauna about the candles!!! Because of Shauna, Tiffany, Marty and Jasmine, our wedding day stress-free and filled with memories we’ll cherish forever. 

hly enough about this exceptional venue and team. What makes the Wintergarden so special is not only the breathtaking architecture and light-filled space, but its incredible ability to transform into whatever vision a couple dreams of. For my couple, we reimagined the space into a dramatic, romantic atmosphere, and the Wintergarden served as the perfect canvas. It is one of the rare venues that feels equally stunning in its natural state while also allowing for complete creative transformation. Equally impressive is the team behind the scenes. Shauna, Emily and Tiffany were truly phenomenal to work alongside.  Emily and Tiffany are exceptional the day-of and are present, attentive, and deeply invested throughout the entire day. They anticipate needs before they arise, communicate seamlessly, and create an environment where both planners and clients feel completely supported. Their professionalism and calm confidence make an enormous difference on a wedding day. The culinary team was also outstanding. From presentation to execution, every detail was handled with care and intention, and the guest experience reflected that level of excellence. Above all, what stands out most about the Wintergarden is its people. The staff is warm, intelligent, and genuinely collaborative. As a planner, that level of partnership is invaluable and allows us to create the best possible experience for our clients.

chosen this venue—and we meant it every time. Shauna, our Event Sales Coordinator, was an absolute dream to work with. We had so many questions throughout the process, and she answered every single one with such kindness, patience, and urgency. She made us feel supported, understood, and genuinely cared for, and that alone made our planning experience exceptional. Working with the day-of team, Emily, Tiffany, and Chef Josh, was equally wonderful. Emily and Tiffany were calming, organized, and incredibly attentive, ensuring every detail flowed seamlessly. And Chef Josh went above and beyond, creating delicious meals that our guests are still raving about. Many guests have told us: "This is the BEST meal we've ever had at a wedding!" Their combined effort made the day feel effortless for us. Now about the wedding day itself… it was everything we could have hoped for and more. The entire Wintergarden team was incredible; professional, warm, and truly invested in making our day perfect. We had the best day of our lives. Our wedding at the Wintergarden was perfect, and we will forever be thankful to the amazing people who made it happen. Highly, highly recommend! 💛

I have never had wedding food as good as the food here. I was getting compliments left and right from everybody on how good it was. As somebody who is extremely type A, I really appreciated their quick responses and organization skills. I highly recommend them!

ce for plenty of guests. The glass ceilings black & white floors create curate a wonderful vibe. The food was delicious and talked about days later. I would go back to PPG to have dinner if they had a restaurant. Our wedding was ~200+ people and all the food was on time, and delicious. Lastly, the team of wedding planners were timely, punctual, and thoughtful in their planning. We felt comfortable and prepared. Our wedding day could not be more smooth.

veable walls and planters. We would’ve chosen them for that alone, but it was the staff that took things from a dream to effortlessly dreamy in real life. Don’t bother hiring a wedding planner- Shauna, Emily, and Tiffany made things so immensely easy and stress free, sharing their wisdom, experience, creativity, and quips no matter how annoying or basic our questions or asks. Their flexibility and willingness to try things new even to them put them head and shoulders above the rigidity of other venues. The collaboration with Bartender Marty and Chef Josh made every last touch so unique to our event despite the high volume of diverse events they plan and execute so brilliantly. The team made me feel like a princess, like I was taken seriously and like the world was my oyster (because they ensured it was!). I cannot recommend this venue and team enough. The space is so stunning and transformative as the sun sets through the massive, glistening windowed walls. However, I cannot emphasize enough that it was the active collaboration and obsession with perfection and detail this team has that made it so very easy and fun to plug myself in with no stress. We got what WE envisioned down to them helping us design signature cocktails, making sure we were fed and pampered, and directing our beer boys down the aisle with precision timed with the music. Wintergarden and those who make it come alive are inarguably top tier, in an absolute league of their own.

m, Emily and Tiffany, were both equally as awesome. Aside from the venue being absolutely beautiful, the food and drinks were outstanding. Bartenders, chef, and waitstaff killed it as well!!! I can’t recommend this place enough. 

n for our Wedding venue. They went above and beyond in every possible facet throughout the entire process. Shauna, Emily, Tiffany and Chef Josh were so easy to work with and truly made the entire experience seamless! Towards the beginning, we were mostly working with Shauna, but as we got closer towards the wedding (taste testing, etc.) we started to work closely with the entire staff. We put together a list of venues that we were interested in, and we started scheduling tours of these venues roughly a year and a half before our wedding date. My wife knew she wanted the Wintergarden to be honest, but we wanted to give other places a chance. We toured the Wintergarden first, and Shauna gave us a full tour of the venue and thoroughly explained how everything was going to work. She was already so easy to work with, we walked out of there and decided to cancel all of our other venue tours. We knew the Wintergarden was the one the second we walked out.... From the start, we knew we did not want to hire a wedding planner, because we were expecting a large wedding and we just didn't think we could justify it in our budget. Ultimately, this was something we were slightly nervous about in the beginning, but we quickly came to realize that Shauna is just as good as any wedding planner! We know that's technically not her title, but working with her leading up to the wedding made us quickly forget about the fact that we didn't have a dedicated wedding planner. We truly cannot say enough great things about her. The entire Wintergarden team was in constant communication with us the entire time. We had our food tasting and the food blew us away....which we saw on other reviews. That was one of the main reasons we were interested in the Wintergarden from the start. We ended up asking if there was any way we could make all of the food Halal, and they didn't hesitate to make this accommodation. Not only were they okay with this, they didn't charge us anything extra! We ended up having to change multiple aspects of the menu that we picked out and they were more than okay with it. Chef Josh wasn't phased at all and the food was unbelievable the night of the wedding. Even during the cocktail hour, people kept coming up to us raving about the appetizers. We wanted to try to separate a portion of the bar for people who don't drink alcohol. They set up a satellite bar for us on the other side of the venue and this bar was labeled as a non-alcoholic one. All of these are just small examples of how they want above and beyond to make sure we had the greatest experience we possibly could have. The venue itself is soooo gorgeous, that you really don't need to do much to decorate it. They already provide you with all the linens, silverware, charger plates, chairs and glassware. All you need are your florals. They even provided battery operated candles for us, it looked amazing. We had 265 guests, not including vendors. Our wedding was a major success. We're a month out and we still have people continuously telling us that it was probably the best wedding they've ever been to....and again, no wedding planner. We could truly write another 10 paragraphs about the Wintergarden, but there's a character limit. Needless to say, BOOK THEM FOR YOU WEDDING!! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!

above and beyond to communicate with our other vendors to ensure that everyone could operate smoothly and on very reasonable timelines. The food and bar received so many compliments from guests, both on quality and service. On top of the amazing level of service that we received, the venue is hands down the most iconic one in the city. Can't wait for our photos.

y weekend yet they made us feel so special and welcome. Our family and friends could not stop commenting on the delicious food, gorgeous venue, great drinks, and all around incredible atmosphere. I cannot recommend this place highly enough!

with. They are unbelievably organized, incredible with transparency and communication, so inviting, and really know how to help throw an unforgettable wedding. The food was to die for; everyone raved over how good it was. And based on pictures, it goes without even saying, but the venue is spectacular. You could not ask for a more perfect and beautiful venue in Pittsburgh to hold your wedding. We can't stop thinking about and reliving every moment of our night there, because it was simply so perfect. For those out there deciding on where to have your wedding, don't think twice....call Shauna at Wintergarden and book!!

moon with the way the event unfolded. The coordinating staff of Shauna, Tiffany and Emily are very understanding of our needs, accommodating and first class. They made the entire process of planning and holding a wedding reception of 200 plus guest a breeze. They took care of every detail, large or small, to make the experience the best. Everything went off without a hitch. The food was above excellent, and the bartenders and servers were all first class and very accommodating. I highly recommend The Wintergarden facility for your next wedding reception and/or event. You will not be disappointed. If I could give The Wintergarden a 6 out of 6 star rating, I would, unfortunately I am limited to giving it the maximum of 5 out of 5 star excellent rating this site allows. Thank you to everyone! You made my daughter, and her husband's wedding amazing and truly unforgettable. Job well done!

book a tour and the reviews speak for themselves. The second we walked in and met Shauna, we were sold. This is the only venue we toured and knew within seconds of being there it was the one for us. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful but the true magic of it is because of the incredible people who work there. Shauna is truly an angel on Earth and will do whatever it takes to make your day exactly how you want it to be. She was the best and easiest person to communicate with and she never asked questions, no matter the requests we had - she just made it happen. Tiffany and Emily knew our plans better than we did ourselves and made the day of go without a single hiccup. Our day was absolutely perfect because of these three people - not one single thing went wrong (and I mean not one single thing) and they brought our vision together better than we could have ever imagined. I also cannot forget Marty - every single person who came to our wedding raved about Marty’s service and just who he was as a person. I could not have asked for a better bartender to keep the party alive and bring such joy to all of our favorite people on our new favorite day. I cannot say enough good things about this venue or the people who are a part of it. Our wedding day will go down as the best of our lives, and it is because of the people we got to work with during this process!!

as stress-free as possible with their expert guidance, quick response to questions, and day of coordination. Every single detail was perfect, and our guests are still raving about the food, service, people and ambiance over a week later. Choosing the Wintergarden was the best decision we made for our wedding, and the day was absolutely perfect.

sappointed! After touring the venue a year and a half prior to our wedding date, my husband and I were completely blown away by the space and knew we had to have our reception there. We were looking for an elegant and timeless venue in the city, and the Wintergarden is just that! The space itself is not only stunning but it also comes with so much offered in-house, which definitely helped eased some of the planning stress because we didn’t have to coordinate outside food, drink, linens, etc. Shauna is fantastic to work with - she answered any and all questions we had in record time and was extremely organized and easy to work with. During our wedding weekend, Emily and Tiffany were just as great! The food here is insane (so many compliments, thank you Chef Jeff!) and the service is top notch. We could not have imagined our wedding day anywhere else - thank you to the whole Wintergarden team for helping to make our dreams come true!!

s the food was absolutely to die for! Our guests raved about the quality and portion sizes of the meal. We waited 2.5 years for our big day and it was absolutely perfect thanks to everyone’s hard work at the Wintergarden!

of our guests made numerous comments about how absolutely stunning this place was and how incredible friendly the entire staff was. I cannot begin to recommend our coordinator Shauna and her team more as they were absolutely vital in making sure our special day was stress free. They went above and beyond for us and I know they'll do the same for you! Seriously this venue in our honest opinion is flaw free and you will not regret choosing this beautiful venue as the start of your forever! -Asa & Shay

nt planner, was AMAZING to work with. She is so sweet and super efficient! She took care of everything and responded in a timely manner. No wedding planner needed! (maybe a day of or month of depending on preference). Staff was super nice and accommodating and made my husband and I feel like royalty. Food was amazing and all of my guests complimented how delicious it was and how they were very pleased that it was actually warm as so many weddings they have gone to the food was cold. The servers were super-efficient as well and everyone was eating in no time. CONS: BEWARE, NO REHEARSAL. This was the only drawback to the day. The venue does not guarantee a rehearsal the day before your event as they usually have another event the day before yours. I opted for a rehearsal, and they told me it would have to be between 1 and 3 pm the day before, which is a terrible time for people who work, and they said it could not be guaranteed. There ended up being an event the day before, so we were unable to do a rehearsal. The annoying thing about that is that they expect the bridal party/parents to be at the venue 45 minutes before you walk down the isle, ON YOUR WEDDING DAY, to do a "quick" rehearsal right before you get married. I hated the idea of getting fake married before getting actually married right before your ceremony as it would take away the specialness of the actual moment, but there was simply no other option. We did a first look so it wasn't like the Groom saw me for the first time at the rehearsal, but I couldn't imagine this scenario if a couple chose not to do a first look. Also, we paid a lot of money for our photographer, and this took time out of our day from photos to do this rehearsal. Also, there is no way to enter the Wintergarden without your guests seeing you. There will always be those guests that arrive super early, and I was seen by several people before walking down the isle which was disappointing to me. Lastly, the acoustics in the place are very tricky. It was hard to hear the speeches of anyone even on the microphone.

and I cannot thank them enough!

pectations. The coordinating team accommodated every special request and made the day so special. They were extremely responsive, professional, and also game great input when needed. The venue is so unique and beautiful. The food was another huge hit that everyone enjoyed. I would highly recommend the Wintergarden to anyone.

s bring our vision to life, and she was quick to help answer any of our questions along the way. Emily and Tiffany were lovely to work with on set up and on our big day, and everything went so smoothly as far as we knew! Our guests raved about how good the food from Chef Josh was, we absolutely loved the pork tenderloin. Marty and the bar team were a joy and efficient throughout the night. The parking garage connected to the venue and close hotels downtown were convenient for our guests. We highly recommend Wintergarden!

rfect choice for our special day. The service we received was nothing short of exceptional. Connor and I were treated like royalty, thanks to our very own personal server who ensured that we had everything we needed throughout the evening. It was such a relief to have someone dedicated to our needs, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment. One of the standout features was their willingness to accommodate our unique idea for a drink wall. The servers hiding behind the wall and serving drinks through a hole added such a fun and memorable touch to our celebration. It’s these little details that made our day so uniquely ours. A huge shoutout to Shauna, whose communication skills were truly impressive. She addressed all of our questions promptly and thoroughly, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. Her attention to detail and dedication were evident in every aspect of the event. The food was absolutely phenomenal—each dish was not only delicious but beautifully presented. The bar was huge and efficient, ensuring that our guests were never left waiting for a drink. It was clear that the Wintergarden team is committed to providing top-notch service. The bridal suite was a private oasis that provided the perfect escape for us to freshen up and take a breather whenever necessary. It was a wonderful feature that made a world of difference on our big day. Additionally, the shuttle service provided for our guests was incredibly convenient, ensuring everyone could easily get to and from the venue without a hitch. We wholeheartedly recommend the Wintergarden to anyone looking for an outstanding wedding venue. Their exceptional service, stunning facilities, and thoughtful touches made our wedding day truly unforgettable. Thank you to everyone at the Wintergarden for making our dream wedding a reality!

ted something that showcased Pittsburgh, was classic, timeless, and beautiful . We got all of that and more at the Wintergarden! All of staff are truly incredible to work with! Shauna is with you every step of the way, and will always be there to promptly answer any questions or concerns you have. She is also just a true delight to work with! We had Emily working with us on the day of the wedding and she truly made the day feel so enjoyable and effortlessly perfect! The Wintergarden team works so hard to make you feel at home, comfortable and special! The food was absolutely incredible!! All of our guests raved about each dish! From the appetizers to the salads to our main dish - everything was cooked perfectly! I didn’t get to finish my dinner because I was talking with guests, and they made sure to wrap up my food to take with me at the end of the night. We also had a wonderful waitress named Maggie, who made sure my husband and I always had food and drinks whenever we needed. She was the best! Our guests still cannot stop talking about the beautiful venue and kind staff! We especially loved whenever it got dark in the evening and the venue lights up inside! It is truly like something out of a movie! I could not recommend the PPG Wintergarden enough!! It is the perfect place to hold any special event! From the food, to service/staff, to accommodations, to ambience - it is perfect! Thank you for making our wedding the best day of our lives! 💗

ponding quickly to our questions, helping us understand the best way to layout our vision and making it come to life. The day of coordinators, Emily and Tiffany, were absolutely amazing and helped us pull everything together. They helped keep us on schedule and make sure everything was moving. The venue looked stunning when we arrived for our reception and the service was great. No one ever waited in a line for drinks and there were constantly people buzzing around making sure everything was good. The food was probably the best food we have ever had at a wedding and our guests have echoed that feedback. Our day was truly perfect and we could not have done it without the help of everyone at the Wintergarden. I would recommend this venue to everyone getting married in Pittsburgh!

ed help making decisions that shaped our day. Our food tasting with Shauna was so efficient and organized, it left us feeling like we’d be in good hands for the day of which we absolutely were. Our day of coordinators, Emily and Tiffany, were also amazing. It felt like they were one step ahead of us all day, handling basically all the setup and tear down, offering us food when we needed it, making adjustments as we asked, and much more. The food (and Chef Josh) also deserves its own shout out. So many guests complimented the unique food and side options, and said it was some of the best wedding food they’ve had. The cocktail hour snacks went over great as well. In terms of the venue itself, we couldn’t have asked for anything better. We did both our ceremony and reception in the Wintergarden space with about 160 guests. Between events, the space was seamlessly transformed from ceremony seating the reception ready. All of our guests gave the venue and team high compliments. We loved the lighting and how it turned into a real party atmosphere as it got darker. All in all - perfection!

ff was super helpful, attentive and quick with responses. The food was phenomenal. I couldn’t recommend it enough!

na, Emily, Tiffany, and chef Josh went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. The food was spectacular, with every dish prepared to perfection. We couldn't have asked for a better place or a better team to make our wedding day so memorable. Highly recommend Wintergarden!

stions over the 11 months, and she always answered promptly and actively followed up on anything left outstanding. We couldn’t have asked for a better or more thoughtful event planning and logistics. The day of and day before, all the staff were very helpful and doing whatever they could to decrease stress on us / our family. The Wintergarden pays attention to every detail and will ensure your wedding is everything you want it to be. They care about your wedding as much as you do, all while being extremely professional, kind, and fun along the way. AND the food is absolutely delicious. We’re very grateful to have had the Wintergarden team with us over the last year - I’m not sure what we would have done without them!

ue to the day of the event. From the way we were cared for throughout the experience, it felt as if we were the only client this team was focused on. They supported our vision while providing helpful insights along the way to ensure a successful wedding reception. Shauna, Emily and Tiffany are a first class team. The food was raved about by so many of our guests; a big thank you to the chef and the amazing servers! We would highly recommend this vendor!

team went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was perfect. The venue itself is stunning, with its tall ceilings and glass windows. The staff was incredibly professional, attentive and friendly every step of the way. Our coordinator Shauna was the most amazing, helpful and responsive woman to work with. Her attention to detail is unmatched. She genuinely cared about each and every detail we wanted for our wedding day. Shauna answered every phone call, email & text, no matter what time of day. The food was exceptional. Our guests raved about the cuisine, and we were impressed by the presentation of each dish. If you're looking for a wedding venue that will exceed your expectations, we cannot recommend PPG Wintergarden enough!

g, guests have complimented how cool the venue was and the food (I wish I could get the Halibut every day). Thank you to the team at the Wintergarden- Shauna, Emily, Tiffany, and Chef Josh!

al light. We soon learned that behind a stunning space there is also an INCREDIBLE staff when we met Shauna, Emily, Tiffany and Chef Josh. The highlight of our experience was the impeccable service provided by them. From the initial planning stages, to our tasting, to the execution of the event itself, every detail was handled with precision and care. Shauna answered our endless questions with urgency and made us feel fully at ease without hiring an outside planner. Her experience, professionalism, friendly demeanor and advice towards hosting an event are unmatched. Emily and Tiffany walked through all of our decor with us and ensured everything was set up exactly as we wanted. They made our day BEAUTIFUL and even accomplished a few things we thought would not be possible. The delicious food must also be mentioned! Our guests have not stopped talking about it since and many said it was the best wedding meal they've ever had. Chef Josh provided us with an amazing tasting experience and that only continued on our big day. We cannot recommend the PPG Wintergarden enough. Their team was truly invested in making our wedding day unforgettable and we're grateful that they did just that!
