Zack & Sara’s Broadway-Inspired Wedding

Some love stories feel like they’re straight out of a Broadway musical, and Zack & Sara’s wedding day was no exception. As longtime theater lovers, it was only fitting that their journey to "I Do" had the drama, romance, and magic of a stage production—complete with a surprise proposal at a play, a musical serenade down the aisle, and a first dance worthy of a standing ovation.

I had the incredible opportunity to photograph this unforgettable day alongside my good friend, Christine Border. From the intimate moments to the grand performances, every part of this wedding felt like a beautifully written script—one that will be cherished forever.

A Proposal That Stole the Show

Before we dive into their wedding, let’s rewind to the moment that started it all. Zack’s proposal to Sara wasn’t just romantic—it was theatrical. As devoted Broadway-goers, their love for musicals runs deep, so it only made sense for Zack to pop the question at a play.

With Newsies taking the stage, the real headline of the night wasn’t in the program—it was Zack, bending the knee in front of a theatrical crowd, asking Sara to be his forever leading lady. A proposal straight out of a love story!

Station Square – The Perfect Backdrop

After the emotional ceremony, the celebration continued at Station Square, one of Pittsburgh’s most iconic wedding venues. With its breathtaking city views, industrial charm, and warm atmosphere, it provided the perfect setting for a night filled with laughter, dancing, and joyful celebration.

The venue’s classic ambiance blended seamlessly with Zack and Sara’s love for theater, romance, and storytelling. Every candid moment—from the stolen glances to the joyous laughter on the dance floor—felt like it belonged in a timeless love story.
