Registry

We have been fortunate to start building our lives together and have accrued more than enough "stuff" (cookware, appliances, charcuterie boards, etc.). Your presence in sharing this day with us is a gift in itself. If giving something tangible is an important wedding tradition for you, please consider the following options: 1. Donating to one of the organizations linked below. 2. Making a financial contribution to our honeymoon in Japan. There will be a card box at the reception. 3. Gifting something handmade by you or an artisan with whom you have a special connection. 4. Sharing your unique access to a deal on a product/experience (e.g. you work high fashion like Margaret's sister and get sweet discounts on things we would never buy for ourselves). Our address is 5709 Wellesley Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15206.

FAQs

Question

Dress Code?

Answer

Black tie optional. Pop art inspiration and vintage '60s styles encouraged. Have fun with it.

Question

By when should I book my hotel?

Answer

There are many hotels downtown and on the North Side (near the reception), however Hotel availability is dependent on whether the Steelers have a home game that weekend. We encourage everyone to secure lodging prior to release of the NFL schedule in May 2025. Our hotel blocks are held until August 1, 2025 and are first come, first served.

Question

What's the best way to get to the ceremony and reception?

Answer

See the shuttle plan under Travel!

Question

How should I get to and from the airport?

Answer

Ubers and Lyfts take around 25 minutes to/from downtown without traffic. The 28X bus is $2.75 and provides non-stop service between downtown and the airport. It takes about 45 minutes and runs every half-hour.
