Brandi and Brady are such a fun couple. Although they both live in Chicago, they planned their wedding to take place in Pittsburgh – Brandi’s hometown. I’ve been lucky to know Brandi for years – we went to high school together – so it was a real honor when the two of them asked us to be a part of their wedding day. Their ceremony took place on the Gateway Clipper, which was a totally unique wedding venue and made for lots of great nautical-themed photos (and also tons of fun!).

The day began with Brandi and her bridesmaids getting ready at the Sheraton Station Square.

We loved Brandi and Brady’s bright green and pink color palette. Brandi made each of her bridesmaids’ bouquets unique by adorning them with different whimsical pins. The pins represented something special about each of her bridesmaids – their favorite things and memories that they’ve shared together.

We met Brady and his groomsmen on the Gateway Clipper for some pictures before the ceremony started.

The guests boarded the boat and made their way to the top deck. After sailing to the Point, the ceremony began with a beautiful city view in the background.

Anyone who knows Brandi knows that she is famous for her “jumping in the air” pictures. Naturally, we had to capture some on her wedding day.

And of course, with the whole bridal party:

After arriving back at the dock and taking some pictures around Station Square, the reception followed at the Sheraton. Brandi and Brady continued their green and pink theme with expertly coordinated details throughout the night:

Thanks to Brandi and Brady for such a wonderful day. We were so happy to share in all of the fun! Check out more of their wedding images in the slide show.
