The props were great, and relevant to guests of all ages (I have seen some photo booths which, frankly, had really stupid props. That was not the case here!) Moreover, Sweet Memories was one of the most affordable options I found when researching. Erin's responsiveness, attention to detail, and overall kindness/personality made Sweet Memories an obvious choice. My husband and I are so pleased, and will recommend Sweet Memories to any of our friends who get married in the future!

We got to try out Pittsburgh Camper Booth at Yelp's Ice Cream Social! What a fun experience! The…read morebooth is really spacious and there are a ton of props to use. The prints are really high quality, come out quickly, and you can personalize them with whatever logo you'd like. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because I haven't actually booked/used this place myself, so I can't speak to customer service, but the women running the booth seemed nice :) It would be awesome to have for a wedding or really any event!

From the moment my husband and I met with Meaghan, we knew she was going to be the one that we…read morewould share this special chapter of our lives with. She immediately put my camera shy husband at ease, by being so easy going at our engagement session. She took hundreds of pictures and spent well over the allotted time with us, just exploring different spots for our engagement pictures. When it came time for the wedding, she was in touch before hand and helped me develop a timeline for my day- well beyond her duties as a photographer. On the day of, she knew every relationship and connection in both of our families (which, with each of us having two sets of parents-was a lot and usually people need a map to figure it out!). It really paid off because she knew the important pictures we wanted, and then went from there. Never did I feel as if she was intrusive or obtrusive- it was like having a friend in charge of your keepsake pictures. She still keeps in touch, and sent us a personalized ornament for our first Christmas together. It was this kind nature, amazingly creative eye and attention to details that made us fall in love with Meaghan. I recommend her to anyone and everyone looking for someone to capture a special moment!

At the wedding, several of my bridesmaids commented on their positive, relaxed vibe and how it perfectly harmonized the day. Michael stayed in constant communication with us, and he is very thoughtful and detail-oriented with his business.

I am Samantha, an international student from China. As for a bride, I always wanted a Western…read morewedding ceremony rather that a traditional crowded Chinese one. When I studied at Pitt, I love the Heinz Memorial Chapel a lot so my husband and I decided to have our wedding there after my graduation. At first, I thought I could handle all the wedding details by myself to save the money but then I figured out that mission impossible. I would have my wedding, my graduation project and final research paper at the same time! I would be an insane bride! So we started looking for wedding planners and Shari was the first one we contacted. Her professionalism, experienced attitude and thoughtful consideration really impressed us. After a few comparison with other wedding planners, we had Shari's assistant Andrea as our wedding planner. Andrea is the perfect one. She is nice, easy to communicate, thoughtful and very professional. I have no idea of how an American wedding goes like and she was so patient to explain all the details to me. She helped the most when we picking up all the vendors due to my budget. As my husband was working in Beijing, China by the time I was preparing the wedding, Andrea was the most helpful one to me. I can't thank her more for spending the last six months with me. Without her effort, I couldn't have such a beautiful wedding. I had a wedding prepare folder with 12 wedding vendors lists and she was always there when we had to meet with them. We almost spent every week together. I did a dual-language wedding ceremony and reception as our parents can't understand English. Andrea and her team coordinated that point with all the other vendors and we made it! Everything went through so well and our parents were grateful and happy too. For the wedding day, I just felt a little worried of the wedding party as we were not familiar with the American wedding. I knew Andrea would take care the rest of my wedding and make it perfect. I was so busy and anxious by the graduation ceremony on the morning and wedding on the evening. She helped all the other things as we planned and all of a sudden the dream came true. Thank you Andrea for being my wedding coordinator and being there with more as a friend and a sister. I wish you the best as always. 我是一个在匹大读书的国际生，一直梦想有一个西式的婚礼，因为我和我先生都不是很喜欢国内那样有点乱哄哄的婚礼。当我们参观过匹大的亨氏纪念堂以后，就决定要在这里举行婚礼。一开始我还以为自己能操办所有的事情，但看了下计划以后觉得就是变成超人也没办法在同一个时间段内又要结婚又要完成毕业设计还有最后的论文，所以我们就找了Shari作参考。在了解我们的预算以后，她推荐了她的助手Andrea作为我们的婚礼策划。 Andrea是一个非常细心，有耐心和易于沟通的人。我和她说自己不了解任何美国婚礼的习俗于是她不厌其烦地和我解释每一个细节应该怎么做，又代表了什么。在这半年的合作中，因为我先生一直在北京工作，所以Andrea反而变成了我最亲近的朋友和帮手。我们几乎每周都有见面去挑选各种婚礼需要定的合作方或者谈论婚礼细节和安排。她非常为我考虑方方面面，我们很感动。 因为有些从国内来的宾客，包括我们的父母不懂英文，所以婚礼仪式和晚宴都是双语的。Andrea与所有婚礼团队都很尽力去完成这一点并且让这个婚礼完美。我在婚礼当天除了担心一些人员安排以外其他都没有操心。Andrea让我们的婚礼梦想成真。 我想如果在这边的华人朋友需要找专业婚礼策划的话，Andrea和Shari都应该是有经验的可以提高国际服务的专业人员了。个人认为，虽然婚庆的价格和国内来说是比较贵的，但是真的非常值得。整个美国团队都很专业，让我们很放心。也没有什么坐地起价或者多要服务费等情况产生。合同书说的是什么，就是什么。 谢谢Andrea的辛勤付出，祝好！

Sometimes life goes a little more quickly than you realize!…read more Shari recently helped us the day of our daughter's Confirmation. We decided at the last minute to mark the event with a little celebration. We only had a couple of weeks before the ceremony...the date just snuck up on us! Shari's consultation ensured that we didn't miss any details. Her recommendations and suggestions made the decision process so much easier...we could trust what she advised & just go with it because she has so much experience! The day of the event, Shari came early, coordinated with the caterer, & made sure everything was set. It was a blessing in disguise having her that day because the service went long. Some guests arrived before we even got home! The transformation in our home from before the ceremony to after when Shari had everything set up was amazing. We enjoyed the event that much more because she took away my worries about taking care of guests. Instead of rushing around, I was able to relax and enjoy our friends and family and some cake! I'm lucky to say Shari is a friend of mine, but my comments here are completely genuine. Her assistance was invaluable. She made the dynamic of the event much less stressful which was worth every penny...my husband will attest to that! Fortunately for me having an incredible event planner as a friend made it possible for us to enjoy this milestone in our daughter's life.

We are so happy with everything that DJ Garry did for our wedding. He really did help make our…read morewedding day so special. He was easy to get in touch with anytime we had questions or needed anything. He has great tools that makes communicating must play songs, timelines, names for announcing and every other detail that he needs for your day. We had him for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and he was there very early to set everything up and transitions between all three were seamless. For the reception, we only had about 5 songs that we said we wanted played and gave him free reign to feel out the crowd and choose songs that would keep people dancing. He was great at getting everyone involved and on the dance floor with fun things like maracas and tambourines. The dance floor was packed from the moment it was opened up to the minute we had to leave. Overall, we HIGHLY recommend getting DJ Garry to dj your wedding!

I recently used their services at a Halloween party event I went to. They place you in front of a "green screen" take your photo, in my case it was in my Halloween costume. Then they let you choose from a number of different backgrounds and little what I would call small prop items which you can "pin" to your finished picture. They will let you move the props around as best suits you and will offer suggestions as far as placement goes. Regardless,you call the shots! They will then print a picture for you to keep as well as e-mail it to you to share with your family and friends. The prints add some fun to your get together and their work is professional. Unhappy with your image? Then they will shoot it again and let you decide how to "dress it up." Tap snap is a novel way to rent a photo booth for that get together and I'm sure they can also make your own personalized holiday card which you can send out. It makes a great holiday gift to have your loved ones see yourself in a "whole new light." I love the photo they took of me and I keep it in my room. They offer a different style of photo services. Just contact them for more information.

Despite the…read moreHiccups you experience during every big event, no matter how well you plan, those wheels kept on rolling to the very end. As the mother of the groom, it appears I was left out of some pertinent information and with this being said, I will send my kudos to the event planners at the station, thank you for your smile, support, quick thinking, and hard work! They had my back and didn't even miss a beat! Nor did it matter if it was me, or anyone else on site, they handling things like a well-oiled machine. I can't be more pleased with the turn out and the follow up. Even after the event Leanne took care of me, and that meant the world to me. Not to mention, the place is beautiful, starting with the environment, the nostalgia the place exuded and the mystery the place as a whole held right down to the very near live train going by. Make sure you tell your guests to take a walk down memory lane, and explore the restored historic site, it is just exquisite. Even with the bumps that the guests nearly noticed, we all had a marvelous time. Thank you again!
