Pittsburgh Airport Marriott

Maria at the Marriott helped us through each and every little step of the reception. She made everything so easy on us.

I have not one negative thing to say about the Pittsburgh Airport Marriott! We recently had our reception there and it was absolutely perfect! We have received so many compliments about how wonderful the food was and they keep coming in. They really went above and beyond to make our day special! Everyone from the front desk people to the bellman to the maitre d' was friendly and helpful. It was beyond my expectations! I would recommend this hotel without hesitation to anyone looking to have an amazing wedding in Pittsburgh!

They made my wedding spectacular - The "wow" factor was definitely there and the compliments still keep coming in!

The food was plated beutifully and served quickly. However, the food is your standard hotel fare. We enjoyed steak with a cabernet sauce and crab cake duo. It was very tasty and the guests enjoyed it. The nice part is that you can have a chef's tasting for your and your family to try the different dishes and select the one you enjoy the most. My favorite part by far was the Potato Leek soup..I wouldn't pass that up because all the guests raved about it! The other nice part about the catering at the Airport Marriott is that alcohol is included in price per head so it is very easy to get an idea of what the total cost will be. Additionally if you book a year or so in advance you can lock in the current prices so you won't get hit when they increase in January of the following year. Good Luck!

Everyone we worked with at the Marriott was amazing and never hesitated in anything we asked or need.

Extremely detailed in all requirements. Left nothing to worry about on wedding day. Responsiveness of employees during reception was wonderful. Jeannie is a great coordinator.

We had a unique situation where I did not live in Pennsylvania during the first months of our wedding preparation and then we both moved to Kansas 3 months before the wedding. Jeannie Danowski of the Marriott was EXTREMELY understanding and helpful. She scheduled us right away to get our final details and food tasting done before our move since we would not be back in town until 1 week before the wedding. She was quick to respond to emails and always listened to what we wanted for our reception and what was important to us. She is very experienced and the staff at the Marriott is professional and are there to really make the event special for the couple. Beyond having some mushrooms in a couple dishes during the food tasting (we requested no mushrooms), everything else from start to finish was a wonderful experience! They really did make planning easy.

Jeannie worked with us throughout the planning process and tried her best to get all the details sorted out efficiently. She could be a little rude sometimes and we felt like she was pitting my mother and I against one another at times, but overall she was good to work with. The day itself went very well and they followed through with most of the details on the contract. Just make sure it's written down or it will not get done, since Jeannie is not the one that manages the details of your day - she hands off the instructions to another person. Our maitre d was wonderful - she checked in with us repeatedly and kept the events on schedule but was not overly rigid. The food was great for those that ate meat but the portions were much smaller than what we had seen on the tasting. The vegetarian meal was awful despite having worked with the chef and Jeannie for months on how to prepare seitan and sending them recipes. It was very unfortunate. Also, the presentation is not very exciting but if you want to bring in pictures of how you want something done, they will do it ("for a price," as Jeannie says.) We had them copy a pear salad from better homes and gardens and it was a complete hit - delicious and beautiful. The viennese table was also a hit.The florist that is included in the package is uninspiring and the work we saw (we went a few times to see her arrangements), was mediocre. The flowers were sparse and the vases mismatched. They like to use a lot of mirrors and votives and petals to add substance to the menial arrangements.We had our ceremony in the courtyard. it was a gorgeous day and the sun was out for the ceremony, which was perfect. there was more than enough room for the 70 or so people and the AV guys made sure the mics were working well. We broadcasted our wedding oversees using a wireless signal from the city of Pittsburgh, since the hotel's wireless doesn't go to the courtyard. And despite being near a highway and the airport, it is very quiet there. Also a great place for cocktail hour!We had many of our guests stay at this hotel and at the SpringHill suites which was incredibly convenient. Not much to do out there but it did mean everyone was on time for the festivities. It also meant that getting to the airport was easy - 5-10minutes by car or a little longer if they took the marriott shuttle.
