Peek n Peak Wedding ~ Steph and Alex

The heartwarming ceremony and vibrant wine-themed reception made Steph and Alex’s wedding one for the books! The Pittsburgh wedding band Dreamscape had the crowd cutting a rug on the dance floor from beginning to end.

These beautiful photos – taken by the talented Eric Smyklo – capture the charm and vibrance of this lovely wedding day.

Steph and Alex were married on a lovely Autumn day at St. Gregory Church. The bride looked angelic in her beautiful gown. She practically glowed walking down the aisle, and it was obvious that her groom took notice! They exited the church arm-in-arm beneath a shower of feathers thrown by their guests. It may have been the end of the wedding ceremony, but it was just the beginning of a great day!

For the reception, the wedding party made their way upstate to the gorgeous grounds of Peek N Peak. To begin the evening, guests enjoyed the surrounding golf courses as the sun began to set. The leaves were just beginning to turn on the trees, making the scenery even more stunning than usual! At the beginning of the reception, guests were invited to sign one of the Steph and Alex’s many anniversary wines sporting custom labels. The venue itself was a beautiful sight to behold. Kim Kantola ensured everything looked fabulous and ran smoothly!

After enjoying a fantastic dinner, guests were happy to dance the night away to one of the top Pittsburgh wedding bands!

Tawnya, a gifted artist and owner of aclick Photography, impressed with her spectacular pictures of the couple’s memorable day.

The ceremony – held at a quaint church in the couple’s hometown – had a warm and intimate feel.

The newlyweds enjoyed the gorgeous day as they drove to their beautiful outdoor reception space in a white vintage GT 500 Mustang.

The outstanding white tent venue at The Links at Hemlock Creek could not look any better! Links staff member Elise Huss made sure that the night went exactly as planned, taking the stress off the newlyweds so they could fully enjoy their evening!

After indulging in a few cocktails on the hotel balcony, the guests filled the hotel’s light-filled ballroom for 3-course sit-down dinner and some dancing. Guests couldn’t help but admire the exquisite decor, which stood out thanks to the neutral color palette that was complimented by pops of rich pinks and purples.
