We attended a wedding at the Senator John Heinz History Center.
The wedding ceremony and reception in the same build was very convenient. I did however feel that parking should have been validated. Small price to pay $5 to park for a wedding but it was family.
I was able to tour the center at no cost during the evening. If paying to park was the trade, well so be it.
I did not care for the Common Plea Catering Service that is exclusive to the center. The salmon wasn't cooked completely, well not for my taste. The Crab Cakes were all filler. The beef was good but not kept warm, as well as the bowl of potatoes and asparagus. The cold grilled salad to begin with was very good. The pastries everyone seemed to avoid, but the wedding cake was devoured in no time. The food in whole was cold. I know the industry and did many banquet myself. They had no heat to keep anything warm. I was very disappointed.
The wedding was beautiful and everyone had a great time.
I would not recommend this venue for a wedding. I would recommend the center for the history center alone, if you wish a day trip to explore our cities history.
