A Summer Wedding at Hartwood Acres Mansion: Where Whimsy Meets Elegance
Nothing screams a summer wedding like whimsy and elegance, and Hartwood Acres Mansion in Pittsburgh is the perfect venue to offer you just that! The mansion serves as the perfect backdrop for photos, and is a beautiful space for guests to wonder around and enjoy during cocktail hour. There’s a glass covered patio so rain doesn’t need to be a concern, which is always a bonus here in Pittsburgh! There’s also a getting ready suite right in the mansion, so there’s no need to book a second venue just to get ready in, either. The venue looks damn good on film, too *wink, wink* (*whispers* I do include 35mm film in all of my wedding packages now)!
Hartwood Acres Mansion: What Makes This The Perfect Summer Wedding Venue?
I hear a lot of my couples worry that the only wedding venues in Pittsburgh are barns. Fortunately that’s just not true! Their other concern is rain coverage, because we all know this city is known for its lack of sunshine and abundance of rainy days. Hartwood Acres Mansion solves both of those problems! No wooden wall around here— instead, its a stunning stone mansion, with a gated wild flower field, rolling hills, and a glass top covered patio where you can have your reception. If rain is in the forecast, you can plan to move your ceremony under the covering as well!
A Ceremony Space Straight Out Of Bridgerton
A small space right behind the mansion is the perfect spot for the ceremony. It doesn’t need a lot of decor as the mansion itself it beautiful, but it lends itself to elegance so added florals, or umbrellas and fans like Olivia and Greg opted for, tie the venue together beautifully with your personalized design choices.
No Shortage Of Photo Locations
Few things make a wedding day run smoother than not having to stray far from your venue for your portraits, and its obvious that Hartwood Acres Mansion has plenty of options for stunning photos. Better yet, you don’t have to leave the party at all to get to them. Depending on how your timeline looks and where you choose to have cocktail hour, you don’t have to worry about your guests lingering while you take a moment alone for your photos, too.
