Shannon Capellupo | Owner  

 

After a decade of planning events for some of Pittsburgh’s premiere non-profits Shannon made the natural transition into wedding planning.  She believes that no matter your budget, every bride deserves to have the wedding of their dreams.  With so many decisions to be made, Shannon knows that it is her job to make sure that her brides are aware of their options, help them to get the most for their budget while still being totally unique and keep a cohesive vision for the wedding weekend.

When she’s not planning special events or coordinating weddings, Shannon is proud to be home with her loving husband Brian and Bichon Frise- Willie.  She remains active in the Pittsburgh young professional scene, enjoys attending the best restaurants in Pittsburgh, and is a growing wine connoisseur.
