The Plannery loves, loves, loves the Carnegie Institute of Science. It really feels like home sweet home for me. If I am not mistaken, it is my most frequented venue working as a wedding coordinator and/or assistant.  It is safe to say that every couple loves the wedding venue they selected, but boy did Julie and Charlie REALLY LOVE their choice in Carnegie. Who can blame them? I am pretty sure that the thought of themselves posing in Carnegie’s infamous upstairs library led to the booking.  Lisa Rhinehart Photography delivered in capturing this darling couple and their wedding party in that unique space.  I bet if I were to invite myself over to Julie and Charlie’s home, I would find a large print of them in the library proudly displayed.

My last two couples including Julie and Charlie opted to have the gorgeous front doors of Carnegie serve as their ceremony backdrop, which I just love.  Don’t get me wrong, getting married in the center of the rotunda space is just as great too! I think somehow Julie and Charlie thought that this would lessen them being the center of attention, but of course that wasn’t the case. They were both way too sweet and stunning not to gawk at!

The couple was adamant about taking an all guest wedding photo and their guests were super happy to participate.  It will be a memory that they will surely cherish forever. Congrats again to Julie and Charlie!
