Jessica & Tyler's Pittsburgh Wedding at Antonelli Event Center
Congrats to the new Mr. & Mrs. Perhac!
Tyler & Jessica’s big day was beautiful and SO much fun! Spring blooms and the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions brought a sense of optimism and signs of a fresh start after a very long year. Everyone was ready to have a good time, dance, and celebrate life, friendships, and family again without worry.
Donny & I had the pleasure of photographing both Jessica & her sister Hannah’s weddings over the last few years, so this was an extra special day. It’s been so nice working with each as well as their families and friends! We’re honored to have been a part of these memorable times in their lives.
We’re so happy for Tyler & Jessica as they start their new journey together & we wish them nothing but the best!!
Enjoy their beautiful Spring wedding gallery :)
Bride & Groom’s Love Story
“We met back in August 2012 at a bonfire in his backyard. Tyler was 16 and I was 17 at the time. I actually didn’t care for him that much and he didn’t make it any better when he decided to shoot me with an air soft gun. He claims it was a love arrow that just took sometime to kick in. Eventually, Tyler grew on me and I came around. After a lot of convincing, Tyler finally got the chance to take me out on their first date in 2014 to Panera Bread. We hit it off and never looked back. In August of 2014 we brought home our crazy dog Callie. For the first two years of our relationship, we persevered through long distance, as Tyler played junior hockey in Florida for six to seven months at a time, while I was in college. Most of our time together was spent during the summer, playing with Callie and joining the Tylers family on their annual trip to Pensacola Beach, Florida. For the next few years, we would spend a lot of time apart while Tyler went to school at Lebanon Valley College, and I finished up at Slippery Rock University. On July 6, 2019 during the annual Pensacola Beach Vacation, Tyler and I went for a walk on the beach. Tylers parents told the two of us to pose for a picture. During the photo, Tyler finally got down on one knee on the beach at sunset. Astonished, I accepted and put the ring on my finger, but forgot to even say yes at the time. While planning our wedding during the pandemic we decided to adopt our second dog Lexie and we bought our first home in October 2020. We are most excited to finally be married after spending so many years apart from each other because we always told each other that it would be worth it in the end and it totally was.”
