Getting Here

  • Plane

    Pittsburgh International Airport is about a 30-minute drive from both the ceremony and the reception.

    Prefer public transit? The 28X Airport Flyer bus runs from the airport to Downtown, Oakland, Shadyside, and Point Breeze.

  • Train

    Amtrak stops at Pittsburgh’s Union Station, at the edge of Downtown and the Strip District, about a 7-minute drive from both St. Anthony’s and the WBU.

    Arriving by rail is a lovely way to see the city, and it fits our old Pittsburgh theme.

  • Automobile

    Feel free to drive into Pittsburgh, but try not to drive to the ceremony or reception, since parking is limited.

    Grab an Uber or Lyft for the day. We’re also happy to help you find a ride to the ceremony, reception, or both!

Parking

Parking is limited at both locations: our reception venue has about 40 spots, and the dedicated lot at St. Anthony’s Chapel has slightly fewer.

To make sure everyone is taken care of, we’ve added a question to the RSVP form about how you plan to arrive. Parking spots will be prioritized for guests who would benefit most from close parking. We’ll be in touch after the RSVP deadline to confirm that you’ve been assigned a spot.

If you’re able, we recommend ride sharing to the ceremony. For anyone who needs it, we will help arrange transportation from the ceremony to the reception. It is only a 5-minute drive between the two, so getting between them will be easy.
