Tropical LGBTQ+ Wedding at the Pittsburgh Zoo

Rick + Alex

Rick and Alex’s wedding was a beautiful, lush paradise. Their ceremony took place in the Aquarium building at the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium. Surrounded by the smells, sights, and sounds of a tropical forest, they said their vows and participated in a handfasting ceremony led by my favorite Pittsburgh Wedding Officiant, Mark DeNuzzio. The wedding party and my team traveled around the Zoo’s grounds for pictures, getting to stop and see our favorite animals along the way. The night ended with dancing, delicious food, and the opportunity to pet the resident stingrays.
