Union Project Reviews

We could not be more thrilled with having our wedding at the Union Project. The staff was a pleasure to work with, and the space was the perfect place for bringing out family and friends together in.

What an amazing and beautiful space! We booked the Union Project back in March 2014 for our January 2015 wedding and it was a great decision. We booked the Great Hall, the kitchen, and the board room. The staff was so helpful throughout those planning months. They responded to all of our calls and emails, let us come into the space when we needed to look things over and were very flexible throughout the whole time. The day of the wedding, ice covered the streets of Pittsburgh which made it extremely difficult for someone to come and unlock the building. A staff member who was not even suppose to work that day came in a little late (terrible weather!) to come unlock the building. Because of this weather hiccup they let us stay in the venue later than we planned. All of the staff members were so kind and professional and it really made our day so wonderful. This is such a beautiful and affordable space and I would book it again in a heartbeat!

The space was so amazing and unique! It was absolutely perfect for our needs. The staff was exceptional at answering our questions and helping us to feel very comfortable with our business relationship. It felt more like family! I would absolutely recommend to anyone to use this location for any event you may need!

There are many pros to this site. The site is beautiful and staff are wonderful and very helpful The cons, however, are lack of a kitchen and the slanted floor. Otherwise, this was a lovely place to hold a wedding!

This was a beautiful space for our wedding and reception. The staff was friendly, helpful, and flexible, and able to help with all of our special requests. We and all of our guests had a wonderful time!

I loved having my wedding at the Union Project. Not only do my husband and I feel that our money went to a worthwhile organization, but they were very professional in helping us with our day. The organizer Carol is AMAZING. She is super kind and very dedicated to helping you have the best day possible. We were so grateful for her the day of when there was a glitch in the floor plan. She stayed even though she was supposed to be off to help us. Really beautiful and wonderful place to be married. Also very reasonably priced. They recently had the floors leveled so if you've read any reviews that say the floor is slanted that's not true anymore.

I loved the Union Project. They remodeled and it was beautiful! The event manager is great! She has a great personality and she was very helpful and quick to respond to emails. The staff on site was great as well. Everything went smooth for my reception.

Pros: Carol was great about showing us around the space. The price was perfect! (Although I understand it has gone up considerably, and understandably). There were very few restrictions allowing us to design and use the space in the way that suited us best. The building as a whole is well maintained and pretty.

Cons: Occasionally it would take a little longer than I'd like for an email response, but she was always able to give good information and answer questions. We reserved the Union Project a year in advance and they went through many changes in that year. We weren't kept in the loop about any of them. If we weren't familiar with the Union Project outside of our wedding contract, it would have meant a couple stressful surprises closer to the wedding (like changing the floor from wood to carpet)

The Union Project is a unique space that you must look at with an open mind! The people are great to work with, although at times hard to get in touch with.
