After we wrapped up our photos on Pitt’s campus, we realized we were quite a bit ahead of schedule. With glee in my heart, I realized that this meant we had enough spare time to stop at a photo location that I had originally planned to go with my bridesmaids, but had to scrap when our photographer got held up in traffic. Yay!

We all piled into our non-fancy-but-functional shuttle van (oh, and note Groomsman/Brother Adam’s photo bomb in the back corner. A love of photo bombing is just one of the many bonds he shares with Mr. Octo).

Our reception and hotel blocks were all on the North Shore of Pittsburgh, which features totally gorgeous views of the city skyline. By finishing our Pitt photos ahead of schedule, we were able to make a quick stop at the waterfront for some skyline shots!

And one of my brand new husband and I in front of the city we love.

Photos taken, it was time to pile back into our shuttle and arrive at the reception!

(Oh, hey, Heinz Field! Thank you SO MUCH for not hosting a Steelers game on our wedding weekend, making our lives easier times a billion!)
