Leah and Micheal | National Aviary Pittsburgh Wedding

This wedding! This National Aviary is one of my favorite venues in Pittsburgh and Leah and Micheal had such an incredible vision for an effortlessly elegant day. We started at the Hotel Monaco downtown Pittsburgh. I had never been here before but it’s now amongst my favorite hotels downtown for getting ready. From the Monaco we all headed over to the aviary and did the first look near Lake Elizabeth in Allegheny Commons park, just outside the venue. If you’re considering a first look but unsure it will be as emotional as waiting to see each other at the alter, please check out that photo of Micheal’s face hugging Leah after seeing her for the first time! If that’s not a push for a first look I don’t know what is.
