Things to do
The Strip District
Our ceremony takes place right in the heart of The Strip District. This area has several blocks of locally owned businesses, restaurants, breweries and activities!
Mount Washington
Ride the incline up and down to see the most beautiful view of the city! At the top of the incline, Shiloh St. has many shops and restaurants to browse.
Cathedral of Learning
Lovingly call “Cathy” by Pitts students, this is the tallest academic building in the Western Hemisphere lives right on the University of Pittsburgh’s campus. Tours of the Nationality Rooms within the Cathedral are available and linked. Students will be gone for the Summer so campus won’t be busy!
Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens
Admission for adults is $22. There is a lot and street parking available.
North Shore
The Northshore is home to Pittsburgh Steelers and Pittsburgh Pirates. PNC Park and Heinz (now Acrisure) Field can be found here.
Randyland
Located in the Mexican War Streets (Northside). A vibrant, unique museum that is very photo worthy!
