Amazing Wedding Venue
Everything about our reception at the Heinz History Center was incredible! We had our cocktail hour on the 1st floor (Great Hall) and our reception on the 5th floor (Mueller Center). Shelby and the staff at the Heinz History Center were amazing and so helpful in all of the planning stages all the way through to the end of the reception. Shelby was so communicative in the months leading up to the wedding and just made us so at ease. We were so calm on our wedding day knowing that they had everything covered for us. We highly recommend the Heinz History Center for any wedding! Thank you so much Shelby and team!
