Renaissance Hotel Weddings - John Parker Band®

Two words epitomize the look and feel of Amy and Patrick’s wedding in late spring: “upscale” and “glamorous.” Every bridal accessory and decorative accent exuded a sense of enduring elegance that was truly beyond compare! The first class hotel mingled perfectly with the sparkling decor to create a one-of-a-kind atmosphere that guests are sure to remember for years to come. The versatile tunes played by the John Parker Band only further ramped up this classy celebration, contributing to the unforgettable ambiance of this refined evening!

The talented Kristy Telnov perfectly captured this day in her incredible photographs, which she has generously shared for your enjoyment!

Amy and Patrick exchanged their vows on the Renaissance Hotel Pittsburgh‘s grand staircase. The luminous white walls, sweeping archways, opulent domed ceiling skylight, and bright red carpet only added to the magnificence of this magical moment!

The Renaissance’s glittering second floor ballroom dazzled the couples and guests alike, courtesy of the hotel’s gifted event coordinator Katy Simovski. The wedding celebration had a distinctly romantic atmosphere thanks to the space’s moody chandeliers and candle-lit tea lights. Finely polished silver and flourishing – yet modest – centerpieces added a few final sophisticated touches to the room.

Selected Reception Music
Bride & Groom: Let’s Stay Together – Al Green

The guests spent the evening hitting the dance floor to a diverse mixture of moderns party tunes, hits from the 80’s and 90’s, and timeless wedding classics – all adeptly played by a top notch wedding band!

Emily and Garrett’s elegant affair was epic in a million ways, but still managed to retain a distinctly refined air that’s difficult to find in most weddings of this size. The venue ceilings were sky-high, the bride’s train was ample, and the dance floor was bumpin’! To help make this wedding a smash hit, the couple employed the help of The John Parker Band.

The talented team at Araujo Photography was gracious enough to give us these breathtaking photos of the bride and groom’s big day. Take a peek!

The bride and groom were wed on the epic staircase of the Renaissance Hotel lobby, giving family members the perfect view of the union above. Light shined down on the couple from the giant windows, granting even more symbolic meaning to this already heartfelt ceremony. What a view!

The reception took place in the hotel’s giant ballroom. The space was immaculately decorated. From the classic glass tableware to the towering centerpieces bursting with Hydrangeas, no detail was left untouched! Everything looked and ran as planned thanks to Christine Zimmick, a Renaissance Hotel Social Catering Sales Manager who took charge of making the magic happen!

Selected Reception Music:

Bride/Father Dance: I Loved Her First – Heartland
Groom/Mother Dance: My Wish – Rascal Flatts

“Thank you for a perfect evening, I couldn’t have imagined a better

After dinner, guests spent their night twirling away to the sounds of the premier wedding band Emily and Garrett had selected to keep the night’s festivities rolling. After this knockout reception, the bride and groom traveled to the Caribbean Isle of St. Lucia for their Honeymoon!
