Coptic​ ​Wedding in Pittsburgh

Some of my favorite images from Maria and Matthew’s beautiful Coptic​ ​wedding in Pittsburgh. The Crowning Ceremony took place at St. Mary’s​ ​Coptic Orthodox Church in Ambridge, and was followed by the wedding reception​ ​at the​ ​Carnegie Music Hall Foyer. The day after the wedding, Maria and​ ​Matthew had a really fun “trash the dress” session–involving ice​ ​cream, gummy worms, ​silly string​ and a delightful dip in the fountain ​– in Downtown Pittsburgh. Enjoy!
