The Heart Behind The Arch

There is something extraordinary about watching a room come to life.

The candles are lit, the music begins to play, loved ones gather with anticipation, and for just one day, time seems to slow down. It's in those moments — the quiet ones before a wedding ceremony, the joyful conversations around a filled table, and the memories made on a packed dance floor — that I know exactly why I do what I do.

I'm Abby, founder and lead planner of Arch Events Co., a Pittsburgh-based wedding planning company dedicated to creating celebrations that are thoughtful, timeless, and deeply personal.

My passion for creating and planning events began years before I opened Arch Events Co. — I’ve been doing it my entire life. Flash forward to college, while earning my Bachelors degree in Business, I spent nearly every weekend working alongside talented industry professionals, learning every aspect of what it takes to create a seamless celebration. Those experiences shaped not only my planning style but also my belief that exceptional events are built on intentional details, genuine relationships, and careful preparation.

Today, that philosophy is at the heart of everything we do.

At Arch Events Co., we believe your event should never feel like someone else's Pinterest board. It should reflect your story, your values, and the people who matter most to you. Whether that's incorporating meaningful family traditions, designing an elegant reception that feels effortless, or making sure you never have to wonder what's happening next, every decision is made with purpose.

Our approach blends organization with creativity, allowing you to enjoy the planning process with confidence while we manage the logistics behind the scenes. We believe luxury isn't about excess, it's about feeling cared for, knowing every detail has been thoughtfully considered, and having the freedom to be fully present on one of the most meaningful days of your life.

Based in Pittsburgh and serving couples throughout Western Pennsylvania and beyond, we're honored to partner with incredible vendors to create celebrations that are as beautiful as they are unforgettable.Because at the end of the day, we're not just planning weddings and events: we're creating the setting where your story begins its next chapter.

“Our final walkthrough really showed how detail-oriented she is, she asked questions we hadn’t even thought of and made sure everything was covered. You can tell she genuinely cares and wants things to go smoothly.

Highly recommend Abby if you want someone organized, proactive, and easy to work with, not just on the wedding day, but in all the prep leading up to it.”
