DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel & Suites Pittsburgh Downtown

I was a 2020 Covid bride who had to postpone my wedding several times leading up to our new date in 2022. From 2020 to 2022, I had worked with the DT to change schedules, re-review our wedding package, select vendors, etc... and working with Danielle from DT had been the best experience! She was so responsive, answering any and all questions I had via email or phone. I planned my own wedding, and she made it so easy! If I needed floor plans, she sent those over with a layout of each room for guest table and decor set-up. If I needed photos of our bridal suite, she had those on-hand as well. If she was busy or OOO, she was transparent about communications so I was never waiting too long or unexpectedly.

Overall, the wedding packages for the DT are inclusive of many amenities and reasonably priced for being a downtown Pittsburgh wedding venue. I loved that our cake from Bethel Bakery, guest table flowers from One Happy Flower Shop, wedding night stay stay, etc. were all included (it depends on which package you pick). We especially loved having access to the Presidential Suite and the Vue Suite, two separate areas to get ready before the wedding. This allowed us to get the "getting ready" photos and First Look pics (at Mellon Green) so easily. For our plated dinner, we went with chicken, fish, or vegetarian options for our guests, and received so many compliments. In addition, we had a cookie table and photo booth, which fit perfectly in the space. The late night snack of pierogies went so well with our "Pittsburgh themed" wedding.

If you go with the DT, the only downsides or things to consider are timing of events near the venue. We unfortunately picked a weekend where there were 2 Penguins games, so parking became an issue (some guests had to park at the Steel Tower next door).

Overall, our wedding was well worth the wait and we loved how our day turned out!

So we were one of those couples who had to postpone their wedding due to Covid. It was an extremely stressful time BUT Patty and the entire team at the Doubletree made the transition extremely smooth. We couldn’t be more happy with our choice to have our wedding there. From the earliest stages of planning to finalizing minute details the entire process was stress free and actually a lot of fun! Everything was amazing on the Big Day! The banquet room looked amazing, the food was fantastic (husband is a chef so that was very important). The service was next level professional, and the entire day went smoother than we could have imagined. The accommodations were fantastic, and everyone staying for the wedding felt welcomed and right at home. A very special thank you to Patty, Danielle, Mike, and Chef Fred, for making our day absolutely perfect! If you are needed a venue I highly recommend The Doubletree by Hilton.
