Wintergarden at PPG Place

edding in April 2023 went so smooth & was so perfect thanks to our vendors & this venue. Wintergarden had natural light come in through the glass for our ceremony & then the venue transformed as it got darker out. It was so nice having our ceremony & reception onsite at Wintergarden. The catering & bar service was phenomenal. Everyone was raving about the appetizers (specifically chickpea panisse!) & the entrees (pork tenderloin is to die for). The bar service was so great & they have such a variety for the alcohol selection. The cappuccino/espresso add on is a must for after dinner! The location is also perfect as we had an after party at City Works. Overall, our day could not have been any better. Wintergarden truly goes above & beyond and the service is top notch. We highly recommend this venue for your wedding!!

dding all the guest could not believe how much food they got and how good it was. The service was top notch! It is such a fun venue with the location in market square. When guest arrived to the cocktail hour they were greeted with signature drinks! I can’t say enough good things about this venue and staff!

were amazing to work with, Shauna was always very quick and responsive to all emails/inquiries which helped SO MUCH! The food was also sooo good the guests all raves about everything from cocktail hour to dinner! I wouldn’t have changed a thing about this venue or the team. They helped make my vision come to life! Best day ever and best team ever!

We felt we were in good hands from the initial meet & greet to the time we left the wedding. This venue and the staff made an amazing day even more special. What a great way to start a new life together when everything just goes right without a worry. Thank you Wintergarden and all of the staff!

before to go over where our decorations would go, to communicating with all of the other vendors to make the process so seamless. They really did make it seem like it was easy, when I absolutely know that there were so many moving parts. For food we had the steak, the salmon, and the vegetarian bolognese, and even though I'm not vegetarian I got that bolognese and it was EXCELLENT. Thank you times a million to everyone there; if you choose the Wintergarden you will not be disappointed. Especially in the wintertime, with the tree outside and some Christmas decorations, we could not have asked for a more elegant and beautiful venue.

atched. The food was absolutely amazing (definitely the best food I've ever had at a wedding and multiple people told me this as well), and just all the help from everyone. Tiffany and Emily were amazing that day and I truly appreciate everything they did to make the day enjoyable and stress free. I'm not sure what event I can plan next, but if there is another event that requires a large venue, the Wintergarden will certainly be our choice.

What really makes this choice the BEST is the team we worked with on our special day. The coordinator Shauna is extremely organized, thoughtful, supportive and so experienced in ensuring our day flowed smoothly. She kept us on track throughout the entire planning process and is so easy to work with. The rest of the staff are exceptional - Emily made sure that everything was in the right place and we both felt great about the layout. She thinks very creatively and is open to making sure that you are happy with everything. Tiff is so kind - I was really nervous before my ceremony and she checked in on me several times and I felt that I could trust her as if we had been friends for a long time. It is rare that you get that with someone you have just met ! The culinary team under Chef Josh is excellent - everyone raves about our food and how nice the portions were. The staff at Wintergarden elevates the experience and I could not have picked a better team or venue ! Do yourself a favor and add this to your list of options for your wedding day.

orough information on any questions I had. As stressful as wedding planning can be, I never had to worry when it came to anything venue-related thanks to how helpful and detail-oriented Shauna was. Everything went perfectly on the day-of thanks to seamless planning from Shauna and her team. The space looked absolutely beautiful and everything was set up as I envisioned. The food was amazing as well with many of our guests praising the quality and quantity of their meals along with how quickly everything was served. Beyond the food, our guests were incredibly complimentary of the evening as a whole. I cannot speak highly enough of the Wintergarden and couldn't recommend it more! We are so grateful we chose this venue and so appreciative of the phenomenal staff for making this special day come together so perfectly.

there for you for everything you need from months of planning, to pre-wedding tasting, to day of. Communication is top notch from the entire staff and their efforts to coordinate with other vendors made our planning seamless. Also the food is amazing. Our guests are still talking about it even a month later. We cannot speak more highly of the Wintergarden and hope that you book them for your wedding too! It will always hold a special place in our heart and we would love for another couple to experience the best day of their lives in a beautiful venue with amazing staff just as we did!

and fast!! I couldn’t have asked for better service all around from them!!! 10/10 recommend!!!!!

s hotels, shops, and restaurants all within walking distance, giving guests easy access to accommodations and other fun things to do in the city. The Wintergarden’s onsite team, Shauna, Emily, Tiffany, Maggie, & Chef Josh, deserve all the praise in the world. I can’t thank each of them enough for their role in hosting our special day. Shauna is so personable in all interactions with everyone. She is responsive in her communication and honest when providing information, offering recommendations, and answering questions. We are so thankful to have had such a reliable person coordinate our wedding day. Tiffany, Maggie, and Emily ensured our wedding day timeline and order of events ran smoothly. They were kind in coordinating with our wedding party and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the night. And lastly, we could give Chef Josh and the culinary team an endless number of compliments. Our guests were so impressed with the food and it is always talked about when we think back on our day. We are beyond grateful for the Wintergarden staff and the amazing memories they have given us. Wintergarden at PPG Place is an unforgettable venue that has our highest recommendation!

oned professionals in the wedding industry with all their suggestions and the way they carry themselves. Our guests were also raving about their meals with multiple comments that it was the best wedding dinner they've ever had. Being a big foodie, I cannot disagree. If you're looking for a 10/10 wedding venue that drops your jaw, look no further than Wintergarden. From the entryway to the event space itself, everything is so beautiful. And how special is it to get married in a building that's part of the Pittsburgh skyline?!

hauna and her staff are extremely easy to work with. So much is included in the price: beautiful chairs, linens, chargers, votive candles, a personal butler for the couple on the day of the wedding, plus day of coordinators. The staff keeps everything running so smoothly that you truly do not need a wedding planner if you can manage the planning up to the wedding day yourself! The food is AMAZING. Our guests raved about every appetizer and entrée. The bar staff can make basically any drink you can imagine and the lines never got long due to the butler passed wine and second bar. The greenery walls make perfect photo backgrounds and separate the space well without making it feel cramped. The staff is honest about what you need and don't based on your vision and budget. They don't try to upsell you, which is hard to find in the wedding industry. I can honestly say that this place is worth the money and then some. You can truly make your day as extravagant or as simple as you want it to be and either way it will be amazing here. Only Suggestion: I would recommend you tell your guests the time the doors open AND the actually ceremony start time to prevent them from having to wait for a long time in the lobby.

entire time. She was quick to reply to our many emails and made us feel like her only client. We had a great time at the tasting and the food was just as great as the day of our wedding! For the day of the wedding, Caitlin, Maggie, Tiffany, Chef John and the servers were just as amazing! Every single one of our guests made a comment about how beautiful the space is and how amazing the food was. They couldn't believe how often the hors d'oeuvres came out and how great the options were. I still can't get over how stress free we all were, and no one had any doubts of a mishap throughout the day. Please consider the Wintergarden when looking at venues because you will not be disappointed!

perience with our parents and it tasted just as delicious when served to 100+ people. I cannot recommend this venue enough. Not a single negative thing to say besides wishing it lasted way longer!

planning process, but I truly felt like I could trust everyone to execute and get the job done. Without Shuana the day really would not have been possible, she is so professional and ON TOP OF IT. PPG Wintergarden is extremely lucky to have her good talent is hard to come by and she is absolutely above and beyond!! To Chef Josh- the food was incredible. Here’s some feedback from the guests: 1. By far the best wedding meal they’ve ever had 2. The portion sizes were extremely generous - everyone was FULL which doesn't happen often at weddings 3. The people that got the veggie pasta were raving about how flavorful it was 4. Appetizers were 11/10 everything was cooked to perfection You seriously did one hell of a job! Thank you so much for all your hard work! Hats off to you and your team! Tiffany, Caitlin and Maggie- When I walked into that reception venue I was totally blown away. Everything looked absolutely perfect. As mentioned above I have such a hard time delegating tasks and trusting people to execute, but you all handled everything flawlessly. I’m SO glad you all were there to keep us on schedule and everything moving forward. Also, you all made the cleanup process SO easy. I was so worried about getting everything packed up and put away at the end of the night, but when I took a second to look around everything was already done. Thank you all for handling it and making my life so easy. So glad you all were there! Overall feedback 10/10 reception venue everyone was blown away by the space. I was worried I didn’t do enough in terms of decor and flowers, but the venue really speaks for itself there really aren’t a ton of extras needed. Im also so glad we didn’t do cake because I don’t think there was ever a moment when the dance floor wasn’t bumping. I don’t think anyone would’ve eaten it. Anyway, I had the freakin time of my life and all the guests were telling us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to (probably just being polite, but I’ll take it). Appreciate you all so much!!! Would’ve have been able to get through the day without everyone coordinating and working together. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! PPG Wintergarden blew it out of the water!! I can’t wait for my photographer to come back with photos and the video. I’ll pass it along if you want any content.

other coordinators were refreshingly super organized and had every minute of the night planned so I didn’t have to lift a finger. We had so much fun and we are so grateful to the staff at the Wintergarden. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

e ever had at a wedding. 10 out of 10!

the process. I was never waiting on emails, and never stressed about anything venue related because she was always so on top of it. She made the entire experience/day so flawless. Emily, Tiffany and Chef Josh also made the day of our wedding go so smoothly and we’re so attentive to us and so sweet throughout out the entire process. From the tasting, the meetings beforehand and the day of, they just made sure everything was perfect for the wedding day. Our guests RAVED about the service, the gorgeous venue and mostly the food. We had so many people tell us it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding, and that this venue would be “hard to beat.” We couldn’t agree more! It truly was a dream and if we could go back and do it all over again at the Wintergarden, we would! Book this place and you will have zero regrets. The space speaks for itself and you truly can’t even compare it to any other venue in Pittsburgh! They give you zero room for any complaints. It was truly an unbelievable, stress free experience and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice ❤️

t answer of emails - as a bride that is so much appreciated. Wedding planning is stressful but honestly I think my “chill bride” attitude had a lot to do with the venue. It was nice to know that everything was under control and everyone was on the same page at all times. People loved the food, the staff & the atmosphere and I think they will talk about it for years to come, at least I know we will! Thank you does not even begin to cover it - but it’s a good start. It was our best day ever and everything was flawless! Do yourself a favor and book with Shauna and your team as a bride and groom on such a big day of your life - you will not regret it ♥️ The pictures are pretty amazing too 🙂

as helpful, professional, organized, and eager to help us with any and all questions we had leading up to our big day. She was so responsive throughout our entire planning process. HUGE compliments to the chef, we received SO many compliments from our guests about how delicious the food was and the portions were huge! We did have some issues with the acoustics, but that is to be expected due to the structure of the building and incredibly high ceilings. I would just tell future couples to be aware of that. Other than that small issue, our reception was truly perfect and we cannot thank the whole team at the Wintergarden enough for that. I would recommended them over and over again!!

!! They helped my dream wedding come true! Working with Shauna was so helpful and she made the whole planning process easier. Also, the food was amazing!!

inuously made us feel like we were the only wedding we had all year. I was convinced that the food wouldn’t be as good as it was during our tasting but it was BETTER. So many of our guests said it was the best wedding food they ever had. I could go on and on and on about why I love the Wintergarden but just do yourself a favor and book it now.

day or two after seeing it in person. From the signing of the contracts to the tasting, to all of the coordinating in between, Shauna was very detail-oriented and on top of everything related to our schedule! The day before and the day of also went super smooth. Emily and Tiffany took care of every little detail from setup to teardown. Maggie was also an absolute gem and had houre d'oeuvres and our “his & her cocktails” waiting in the back room right after the ceremony for us to enjoy together before we joined our guests for cocktail hour. Speaking of food, the chef and team at the Wintergarden deliver so much more than your typical wedding meal. We went with the short rib, chicken, bass, and had a few vegetarian guests who were blown away by the root vegetable bolognese. An amazing meal paired with bar service that delivered their A-game kept our crew filled with cheer and fuel for the dance floor. We’ll forever remember having our first look and reading our vows privately on the candle-lit platform (which we also used as a stage for dancing) as it rained, sleeted, snowed, hailed AND had a few moments of sunshine — another perk of having your wedding in the glass castle that is the Wintergarden! We could go on and on about our experience and encourage newly engaged lovebirds to look no further than this magical space!

s and concerns and offered extensive resources to help us during the planning process. The day of coordinators and staff- specifically Emily, Tiffany and Maggie- were major contributors to the entire day running smoothly. The experience of planning our wedding at the Wintergarden exceeded our expectations and we would recommend this team to anyone! Among the many positive experiences making our day come to fruition, the food was another spectacular aspect. The chef helped to accommodate several dietary restrictions that we had for our guests. Overall, we are very appreciative for the entire team that helped us achieve an amazing experience.

y recommend booking them for your big day!

and chicken and everyone was in love. The venue is gorgeous and they truly make your vision come to light.

ceptional. Not only are they incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and completely willing to jump in and help design our vision during the planning process, though out our wedding weekend they ensured that our entire day went off without a single hitch. St. Patrick's Day Parade? No worries for Shauna and team. 8 inches of snow on the ground? No problem at all. They coordinated our day perfectly and made us feel like royalty. The food at the Wintergarden is incredible, the wait staff is attentive and extremely professional. The space itself is magical, especially after the sun goes down. We had both our ceremony and our reception in the Wintergarden and our guests loved sitting at the tables for the ceremony, telling us that it made the space feel incredibly intimate. Despite the incredible, high glass ceilings, sound was perfect and the temperature was amazing (despite it being freezing outside). Having our wedding at the PPG Wintergarden was the best decision we could have ever made for our wedding. Thank you to Shauna and the entire team for making our dreams come true. To all future engaged couples, HAVE YOUR WEDDING HERE!!

sburgh. The venue is absolutely stunning. We received so many compliments about the venue and team. You cannot go wrong if you book your wedding at the Wintergarden!

a question we were already receiving a response. The food and service were amazing and we received countless complements from guests. Forever grateful doesn’t even begin to cover our gratitude for the Wintergarden on our special night!

ficient! We always had a quick response to our questions. We received many compliments from our guests about their evening spent with us at The Wintergarden.

we looked at the venue! The PPG building has been iconic for me since I was little girl. I fell in the love with the beauty of the building and the renovations that turned the space into a wedding venue have been truly amazing. I was able to host a cocktail hour in the lobby area with a live jazz band for guests. A huge movable greenery wall was a new addition that the Wintergarden provided to separate both areas when once the reception started. The bridal suite offered a separate space for me and the wedding party. Shauna and her team moved things around a million times to give me the exact vision I dream of when guests entered. They ensured everything was perfect and created a place for everything I wanted, including extending our cookie table, setting up an area to serve our favorite donuts and having Chick-fil-A deliver late night sandwiches. Shauna and the head chef worked with us to create a menu offering of Filet Mignon and Crab Cakes to serve to our guests. Every meal was cooked perfectly for the 240+ guests we hosted. I cannot emphasize enough the number of compliments we received and continue to receive on our wedding. It was extremely elegant and everything went so smoothly thanks to Shauna’s detailed timeline which she created down to the minute! Shauna is hands down the best coordinator. She was ALWAYS readily available, prompt, professional and just an absolute dream to work with. She met with our families multiple times prior to the wedding day and simply took care of every detail. I could not imagine going through this process with anyone else. Because of Shauna I was able to relax and enjoy every minute of my wedding. Thank you THANK YOU for giving us the wedding of our dreams!

l options are awesome too. You can't beat the set-up with how open and "airy" the venue is, and I loved having a large stage for our head table and band (and a huge dance floor)! The beautiful, newly remodeled bathrooms and bridal suite were an added bonuses that made this venue even more perfect for our guests and bridal party! PPG's coordinator, Shauna, was the BEST to work with. We couldn't have made it through 2.5 years of covid wedding postponements and 3 different wedding dates without her patience, expertise, organization, flexibility and overall sweet personality! Her and her team are truly best-in-class and made our day perfect and stress-free. If you are lucky enough to secure a date for your wedding at the the best wedding venue in Pittsburgh, I recommend ending your search immediately and booking PPG Wintergarden immediately! :-)

own dinner and there was plenty of room for dancing! Shauna, venue coordinator, was prompt in her communication, clear and went over every detail multiple times throughout the planning process which increased my confidence in her attention to detail and her team! She had great suggestions for the timeline, layout options and other advice that I appreciated! Shauna and team coordinated with vendors and ensured that the day ran smoothly. The food was AMAZING. We offered the rosemary chicken, filet and salmon and guests are still commenting on how good the food was & how it surpassed all expectations for "wedding food". Emily & Tiffany were there at the final meeting and day of to get to know the plans & ensure the day went smoothly. They brought food into the bridal room for the bridal party and were able to get us (bride & groom) drinks which was so helpful when we were trying to make rounds! The wait staff during the wedding was professional, friendly and helped bring the day together. Outside of the fact that the venue is gorgeous (for any size or time of year wedding), the team really brought the experience to the next level. If you have a chance to host your wedding reception here, you should!

mily, and Tiffany made my day a breeze!!! I can't believe how organized they were, from every little detail. We were blown away. The food was absolutely amazing! The salad, the lobster bisque, the filet, best I've ever had. This was not your standard wedding food, this was 5 star restaurant quality. Not only were the coordinators wonderful and attentive, the support staff was phenomenal! Every time I turned around someone was waiting on you, and they were QUICK! I've never seen such a well-oiled event in my life. I think every bride goes into their wedding day expecting something to go wrong, big or small, but that did not happen. It was honestly the most amazing day, and I can owe that to the coordinators, the venue itself, the staff, and the food. Everyone said how wonderful everything was, and how much fun they had. Two people on crutches from the amount of dancing and hamstring pulling that happened from the good time. 100% I'd recommend this venue again and again.

sier. I emailed her often with questions and she was prompt and never made me feel like I was inconveniencing her. Chef Josh is a genius. We received rave reviews of the food. This is not your typical wedding food. We truly felt like we were eating at a 5 star restaurant. Emily and Tiffany were wonderful during the rehearsal and the day of. They were so easy to work with and made sure the day went off without a hitch. The venue itself is like none other in the Pittsburgh area. It is so stunning day and night, that minimal decor was needed. Thank you Wintergarden and the staff for making my wedding dreams come true!

in quality and presentation, "try the Short Rib" it was delicious as was everything else. Cocktail hour, dining, dancing, it just all fit together perfectly. Thanks so much to Shauna and her staff of wonderful people.

pectations! I don't know why anyone would get married anywhere else. This is THE PLACE!! Not to mention how magical the space feels. It was a dream come true! The Wintergarden made our big day possible, beautiful, easy, and SO MUCH FUN!! We are so thankful!!

azing, very accommodating, and so great to work with throughout the whole process. Emily, Tiffany, and all of the day-of-event staff were so nice, and fun to be around, too! We couldn’t be happier with how the day played out.

is over. They are so cooperative and help to make your day exactly how you pictured it. The team was extremely accommodating to our ideas and helped us to come up with ways to make them a reality. Not to mention the venue is absolutely beautiful and is a big space that you can make your own. People are still calling us weeks later to compliment the food - the portions are amazing and the food was extremely fresh. The serving staff from the servers to the bartenders were so friendly and so helpful!! Again - the list of amazing things we could say about this venue is endless and we are so sad that our wedding is over!!!

inging a wedding venue to life with our own decorative vision, we were thrilled at the venue’s natural beauty on its own, and our décor really complimented the venue rather than dominating it. Our venue coordinator, Shauna, provided us excellent service from start to finish and was always extremely responsive. She is highly experienced and knowledgeable about the industry and what logistical details work best within the specific layout of the Wintergarden. With her guidance, suggestions, and leadership, our wedding ceremony and reception was everything we imagined it to be. The team and staff around her – including Emily and Tiffany – deserve a huge shoutout as well for their excellent service on our wedding day. Last but not least, we cannot praise the chefs enough, as the dinner was exceptional! We are still receiving glowing reviews from family and friends about the food and service a month later! We would HIGHLY recommend holding both your wedding ceremony and reception at the Wintergarden!

offering a high-end, modern, urban aesthetic. Wintergarden was perfect. Our guests cannot stop raving about the food, the space and the location. The planning process with Shauna was a breeze, despite having postponed our wedding due to Covid. Shauna and her team were helpful and gracious throughout the entire year+ planning. My husband and I stopped by a few months after our wedding and the team remembered us. I can't imagine a better wedding venue in Pittsburgh. Thank you, Shauna and team, for making our dreams come true!

hout all the issues stemming from the pandemic and having to reschedule the most important day of a bride's life. I was able to call her last minute with my any and all of my concerns and her response time was prompt, while she also felt like a friend who would go to bat for me to ensure everything worked out as planned and as I had dreamed. Working with the PPG wintergarden for my wedding venue was seamless - most possibly the least stressful part of wedding planning for me. They scheduled to meet with me when needed, the Chef and the food were incredible (I still have family and friends raving about the food), the bar staff was quick and friendly, the venue came equipped with linens, chairs, chargers, greenery walls and a beautiful bridal room for the bridal party! On the day of my wedding, I couldn't believe how beautifully everything came together and literally screamed 'I can't believe this is my wedding!' Nothing could have made it anymore perfect and I owe a lot of that to the PPG wintergarden and their incredible staff. I truly felt that the team shared in my joy that day and were so happy to watch me enjoy my celebration to the fullest! I can only hope that all my other family and friends choose the wintergarden so I can go back again and again to enjoy this special venue! If you choose the PPG wintergarden for your venue, you will not regret it! A HUGE thank you to Shauna, Tiffany, Emily, Chef and the rest of the staff at the wintergarden - thank you for making our wedding day the best day of our lives! Sincerely - Carolyn & Justin

eremony and reception at this venue - the transition was effortless! We worked with Shauna who was extremely helpful and supportive throughout the entire process. Our "day of" girls, Emily and Tiffany, were equally as helpful - any issues that day went completely unnoticed. Our guests (and especially ourselves) loved the food - compliments to Chef Josh!!

nt longer than scheduled and the staff (Tiffany and Emily) worked hard to seamlessly bring us back on track for the reception. We also appreciated them allowing ethnic desserts and snacks for cocktail hour and reception. The chef-prepared food was also really well done and executed. And of course, the venue is beautiful as well. We received a lot of compliments and we were really happy with how the day went - many thanks to the Wintergarden staff. Would highly recommend!

nt have asked for a better experience and i cannot recommend the Wintergarden enough. If i could it again, i would do everything the exact same!!

so unique. They provide an all inclusive interior design as well as the staff to execute an event that your guests are sure to enjoy and remember. I would highly recommend considering a tour of this most impressive spot in Pittsburgh to host your wedding. From the in house amenities, including outstanding food and service, to the some of the nicest people you could work with, this is hands down the “it” place!

, to coordinating with each of our vendors to navigate deliveries around the **September** Saint Patrick's Day parade, to the room flip and setting up our flowers and decorations, to the food, bar, cookie table, and cake service... so many of our guests raved about how flawless the execution was, and how each and every detail was exquisite. My husband and I agreed. We could not be more pleased and amazed with how it all went. It really was the best day of our lives, and that is in enormous part to Shauna and the entire Wintergarden team.

’t say enough positive things about this venue. Book it. You won’t regret it.

fect! Chef Josh's food is beyond delicious. Our guest still comment that they have never had a better meal at a wedding. We had a Sunday afternoon wedding, during a Steeler game and there was no traffic and ample parking. I would highly recommend!!

Tiffany orchestrated her fellow servers to each table in perfect harmony. The bartenders were attentive and professional. The venue itself is spacious and beautiful. The bridal party had a private separate room. Bathroom was large (with numerous stalls) and always clean! If you parked in the PPG Place parking garage (down 3rd avenue on the left) there are specific elevators named "Wintergarden at PPG Place" which take you into the lobby. Special thanks to Shauna for assisting my daughter and son-in-law in planning their special day. She spoke kindly of you often!

things!! The venue itself was absolutely jaw dropping GORGEOUS!! Especially at night!! If you're questioning getting married here, I recommend going for it!! It was the most perfect night ever! And the photos in and around market square are beautiful, and you don't need to travel far for the perfect shots!

e planning and celebrating at the Wintergarden. First of all, Shauna is an absolute rock star -- so personable, friendly, organized, and attentive. Every question, concern, or idea I had, she was quick to respond to. For our actual wedding day, we worked with Mike and Emily to help coordinate the day. They were also fantastic and made sure everything ran smoothly. The venue itself is stunning, and so different from anywhere else in the city. From the checkered floor, to the surrounding glass walls, backlit with city lights, the space is elegant, clean, and exactly what I had envisioned for my wedding reception. Let me also mention the food is DELICIOUS. Our guests went on and on about how much they enjoyed their meals. Choosing the Wintergarden for our wedding reception was one of the best decisions we made, and I cannot recommend it enough.

tergarden is in a different league of its own. If you truly want to have the wedding of your dreams, pick this venue. The staff is great! Shauna, the wedding coordinator, is outstanding. Very organized, very communicative, and willing to work you. You would not know this is relatively a new wedding venue for how professional the staff is. My groomsmen broke a button 30 minutes before the ceremony. I went over to Emily, the day of coordinator, and she got it fixed within minutes. Chef Josh was awesome. The food was so good all around. They allowed us to be creative with the space and allowed me to have my good friend, Cole Bradley, who is a country music star in Nashville, to sing a song me and him co-wrote. If you go to the Wintergarden in your search, you won't even want to look at anything else because it is that much better then the rest!

e reception. The bar packages were great and the service throughout the whole event was excellent.

day an absolute dream. We were fortunate to have Emily and Mike work with us the day of the wedding and they helped in SO many ways, even helping where other vendors fell short. Multiple guests commented on how good the food and apps were & the quickness of the bar, saying they were never waiting. Several guests also complimented the day of staff saying they were knowledgeable, professional, and accommodating. Thank you all around for an absolutely outstanding experience!!!

thing so easy and seamless and turned my dream into reality. My husband and I couldn’t ask for more from a venue.

ng so there was quite a lot of planning and replanning). The food catered through the venue is top-notch - Chef even created a vegan option for myself and others with dietary restrictions. The space is spectacular and only increases in beauty as the evening goes on. Seriously, when the sun goes down and the lights and candlelight reflect off the glass, it's something else. It was the absolute perfect venue for our perfect day <3

ow the venue was willing to work with us, and was the one stable part of our wedding planning! The venue was beautiful - during the daylight for our ceremony, and as the night progressed the space transformed into a beautiful setting with the lighted trees & ceiling lighting. The food was AMAZING - so many of our guests commented on it, which is not typical for a wedding! Shauna & Emily stayed close to the details as we planned (and re-planned) our day, and I could rest assured everything would go as planned on the day of, with no stress. Would definitely recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful, iconic Pittsburgh setting for a ceremony & reception.

wait staff, bartenders, and kitchen staff. Accommodating, kind, patient, and professional for the entire night. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for making our day such a PERFECT occasion for us and our family/friends. Before I go any further-- what we all care about: FOOD. Holy cow. I legitimately feel like I ate a dinner at Casbah or some other fancy restaurant. It was not your typical wedding food. I mean, our guests raved about it the entire night. I am honestly curious if the chef there would start doing takeout because I am going to dream about the sea bass and short rib for the rest of my life. I could have eaten the appetizers for the entire night. Mike if you read this- Shauna probably has my address somewhere, please send me the meatballs for Christmas. Leading up to the event, we communicated mainly with Shauna. Every question, concerned, inquiry was answered within 10 minutes via email. If she didn't know the answer she got back to you within the day. I didn't even really consider hiring a day of coordinator because Shauna was so reassuring. Our setup was impeccable- gorgeous. Honestly breathtaking. Emily and her staff was able to lead the tear down and had everything boxed up and packed away within 20 minutes of the reception ending. There was no stress on my end. They let me enjoy the entire time and had everything coordinated for my family to pack it up from there. The coordination with our other vendors (DJ, florist and photobooth) was taken care of completely. I was not bothered with anything- Shauna or Emily handled it all. Our DJ ended up asking to come in and see the place beforehand because he had never played there before and they were fine with it. All handled between the Wintergarden and vendors. As for the vibe- if you are looking for a downtown vibe, this, in my opinion, cannot be beat. We toured the typical ones (Pennsylvanian, Heinz History) and nothing against them they are beautiful-- this was just the whole package. Again, no other coordinator made us feel like real friends like Shauna. More than that, though, the venue fee includes linens, gorgeous glass charger plates, tables, chairs, glassware, silverware. You don't have to worry about any extra rentals/vendors/tedious stuff. It all comes with the venue fee (which compared to other downtown venues, was way more affordable). We were a Friday wedding, and they let us drop everything off the day before which was so helpful for my stress level to just have that checked off the list. I don't know that this could be done for a Saturday, but something to think about! There are multiple hotels within walking distance which makes it easy for your guests. We also couldn't find hotels with bars open late night because of Covid hours, so we ended up walking over to City Works and they accommodated a LOT of people who came until like 2am. The only thing I would change about the night is not asking Emily if we could throw down our credit card to extend the bar another 3 hours. It was the best night of our lives in the most breathtaking venue in the city.

corations go. The food was phenomenal at the tasting and even better on our actual wedding day. Not sure how that is possible but it was! All of our guests have been raving saying it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had + portions were so generous!! We chose the short ribs, striped bass, and chicken. Bar service was also great! Shauna, the venue’s coordinator, was friendly, prompt, organized, and thorough with all forms of communication and planning. Which, I will say…. was not always the case in some organizations during the pandemic but she did not fall short!! She went above and beyond for us and helped with so many things even outside of her job title! Shauna: you are THE BEST! The other staff members (Mike + so many others) who helped on our actual wedding day made the evening run seamlessly. It was truly the perfect reception and we are over the moon about how everything played out!

day of flawless. I seriously cannot recommend this venue and Shauna enough. Thank you for making our wedding amazing!!

not stop talking about how beautiful the venue was, and the food was to die for. We would recommend ANYONE to choose this venue for their big day. We did not have to worry about a day of coordinator because they took care of everything. 5 million stars for the PPG Wintergarden.

! Both Shauna and Emily were amazing throughout the process of helping us prepare for the day, as well as making sure everything ran smoothly on the day of the wedding. Cannot recommend the venue enough!

th! We cannot thank them enough for all of their help in making our day a true dream come true (especially during a pandemic!). Our guests raved about the food & said the venue was one of the most stunning ones they’ve ever seen. Every detail was executed perfectly, and we could never thank their team enough!! They are true rockstars! We could not have asked for a better venue or experience in Pittsburgh. 💛

e to change locations and could immediately go into cocktail hour. We worked with Shauna who was so helpful through the entire process and always made sure to check in, especially when Covid was an issue. Her and her team did amazing work decorating the venue and service was spectacular. The venue also has a bridal suite which was a nice feature so you can keep you and your wedding parties items in the room. This venue is so unique and beautiful you can make any wedding vision come true. The venue also has an in house chef for plated dinners (which I highly recommend) the food was delicious, our guests raved about their meals. Our wedding day was perfect and again could not have happened without the help of Shauna and her team. You need to get married here!

cky to have our wedding after most restrictions were lifted. Wintergarden made everything we wanted happen, from letting us drink champagne throughout our ceremony, to letting us bring in late-night primantis (and they fully planned on letting us bring in a slurpee machine for alcoholic slurpees for our first wedding which was planned for 7/11/20 ;) ). We, along with our guests, raved all night about the amazing food (not all wedding food is created equal and this is top notch! Hint to all future couples: everything’s so amazing, but the risotto stole the show!), the beautiful all-glass venue, and the attendants’ amazing attitudes and helpfulness. Every single person on staff stopped me throughout to tell me nice things about the wedding, my dress, the guests, etc. The alcohol offerings are sooo much more plentiful than every other venue we looked at and the guests loved that as well. With all of our frustrations about COVID, we are so happy we postponed and we’re still able to have the wedding and reception of our dreams :) Thank you so much, Wintergarden at PPG! Book this place!

sed with the venue but also Shauna, who was like our Quarterback, guiding us throughout the process and helping us make decisions that were best for us. Whenever we had a question, she made herself available and was incredibly flexible and understanding. Thank you for everything Shauna and Wintergarden!

for a venue!

erything, worked with all of the specific dietary restrictions we needed, and made every detail customized to fit our vision perfectly. We, unfortunately, were negatively impacted by COVID-19 and just recently had to make the tough decision to postpone and Shauna made a terrible situation so much easier to handle. Can't express my gratitude and how impressed we are by everything. We can't wait to have our reception there once we get back to normal in Allegheny County! Thank you again!!
