WHIRL Magazine: Weddings

Published in October 2014 issue

Chiara Bauccio & Ryan Huet
In true Pittsburgh fashion, watching a Steelers-Ravens playoff game in a Station Square bar turned into a meet-cute for Chiara Bauccio and Ryan Huet. After a date the following week, and two-and-a-half year courtship, Ryan proposed to Chiara during a surprise weekend getaway to Omni Bedford Springs Resort & Spa. When rain hindered Ryan's plan to propose on the mountainside overlooking the resort, he improved and got down on one knee in their resort room. "I'll always remember room 234, as that is where we got engaged!" says Chiara. Following a ceremony at Heinz Chapel, guests greeted the newlyweds with sparklers as these un began to set. The Carnegie Music Hall reception started with a cocktail hour and the bridal party introductions on the balcony. "After we were introduced, we had our first dance," says Chiara. "I felt like a pricness dance with Ryan while all of our friend and family watched from above." Missy Martz from Occasion Creation Designs achieved the couple's vision for a romantic theme with ivory, black, and red decorations; glowing candlelight' and a sprinkling of red rose petals across every surface. While dancing, cake-cutting, and speech making all created lasting memories, Chiara can relive them over and over thanks to the "Ham It Up" photo booth from Leslie Goodes. "Not only does she have awesome props, but she also makes custom scrapbook of all the photos from the night," she says. "We provided her with our color scheme before the wedding, and she coordinated our scrapbook and photo strips to match."
