At this time, Pittsburgh has not added any mask mandates for indoor events, therefore we will not require that you wear a mask, unless something changes in the next few weeks. Vaccines remain a good defense against Covid-19, and many in attendance will be fully vaccinated. Longue Vue club has ample patio space for outdoor seating for those who would prefer to remain socially distant. If you are feeling sick or have come in contact with anyone that has had Covid-19, we ask that you remain at home or test to ensure there is no spread of the virus. We want everyone to be safe and have fun, therefore we just ask that everyone does what is most comfortable to them and respectful of those around them.
Heck yeah!!! We are so excited to get married and even more excited that you all will be there to celebrate with us!
