Wedding Spotlight: Westin Hotel Convention Center in Pittsburgh
Want to experience an oasis in downtown Pittsburgh for your wedding? The Westin Hotel Convention Center in Pittsburgh is located in a 26-story hotel on 1000 Penn Avenue in Pittsburgh, PA. The venue’s space is massive, with great acoustics in the staggering 38,000 square-feet event space.
With three ballrooms for couples to choose from when getting married in Pittsburgh, there’s literally something for everyone.
3 Grand Ballrooms with Amazing Acoustics
As a Pittsburgh wedding DJ, we pay a lot of attention to the way each wedding venue we’re hired to work at performs in terms of sound quality. We had the pleasure of working with one couple that rented out the Westmoreland for their intimate wedding.
The floor-to-ceiling windows allowed the moon to peer through the room and let couples dance under the stars.
It's a romantic setting, and each of the three ballrooms have high ceilings that are great for sound quality. We've had the pleasure of working in all of the ballrooms in the recent past, including:
Allegheny Grand Ballroom. A massive ballroom boasting elegance and a majestic feel. The ballroom can host up to 650 guests and makes this Pittsburgh venue jaw-dropping. Couples dance the night away under a massive chandelier, with 18-feet ceilings that make for picture-perfect photos and rising sound that fills the space.
Westmoreland. A smaller, more intimate space with capacity for up to 150 guests. The space has floor-to-ceiling windows perfect for looking up at the stars or out on to the city.
Pennsylvania Rooms. The same as the Westmoreland.
Unique Space for Unique Couples
Couples deserve a unique space for their event, and the Westin offers spaces and accommodations that make our DJs wish that they were part of the wedding party. Since the reception is held in a hotel, guests can book up room blocks for families, and the venue even makes arrangements for people coming in from out of town.
We don’t know much about the event managers – we're just here for the music – but we’ve seen them work closely with the bride and groom to make their wedding truly come to life.
Escalators, tall windows and funny moments taking pictures with the bride in one elevator and a groom in another looking surprised to see each other are a fun option for lasting memories. And walls filled with fairy lighting provide some of the most romantic, magical pictures that we’ve seen taken at a wedding.
The Heart of Pittsburgh
The Westin Hotel Convention Center offers a very upscale feel in the heart of Pittsburgh. The venue is massive, with beautiful views of the city and ample greenery inside to bring the outdoors indoors.
The couple of the night is pampered – as they should be – with a team willing to bring their dream wedding to life. With beautiful lighting, floor-to-ceiling windows, expansive ballrooms and top-notch accommodations, it’s easy to see why couples choose to have their wedding here.
For us, it’s a venue that we love bringing the party to with great music, stunning photo opportunities and memories that will last a lifetime.
Final Wedding Thoughts
We just wanted to say that we love what we do. Being a part of the best day of a couple’s life is something you can’t get in any other line of work. From wedding photography and videography to wedding DJing and MCing, we’ve been involved in many capacities in many, many Pittsburgh weddings. With the coming year, we’re looking forward to being involved in many, many more!
