Working with Ellen at the Crowne Plaza was one of our best decisions for our wedding. Even with some back and forth with coordinators during the process, she was more than accommodating with every email, call, and panicked late-night message. The entire staff checked in on us throughout the day before and of to make sure all of our needs were met. I HIGHLY recommend the venue for their customer service, great food, and beautiful space

The Crowne Plaza is everything I was looking for in a venue and more. Starting with the communication, to the overall help I received, and to the day of, everything was perfect. The location was centralized to all of our guests and the accommodations and rooms were great. Sharon was our coordinator, and I can't say more great things about her. She was knowledgeable, helpful, supportive, and answered all of our questions effortlessly and really helped our vision come to life. She was there the morning of, and throughout the entire evening to make sure everything was going as they should. She made the process feel so easy and smooth and really was amazing to work with. The food was amazing and all of our guests complimented on how awesome the buffet, cocktail hour hors d'oeuvres and alcohol selection were. (lol). If you're looking for a hotel venue, I highly recommend the Crowne Plaza Pittsburgh South.

We had our daughter's wedding at the Crowne Plaza South on Oct. 8, 2022. The set up, decorations and accommodations were fine. The problem was the main course. In March 2022, six of us attended a food tasting for the wedding. All six of us agreed the Sirloin steak was better than the Filet Mignon. Both were very tender, but we did not like the seasoning on the filet, so we went with the Sirloin. (at the time we verified with the chef that the sirloin was sirloin and vice versa) On Oct 8, 2022, the entree was served at least one hour after the salad was served! The steak, which was cooked to medium, a little pink inside, was so TOUGH that you could not cut it with the steak knife provided. The potatoes included, truffled mashed potatoes, were also nothing like we tasted. They were a gob of thick, sticky potatoes. The chicken romano was good, but the redskin potatoes and green beans consisted of only 3 small pieces each on a plate. I voiced my EMBARRASSMENT that night and again after the wedding. My compensation were several verbal apologies and some extra points added to my IHG Rewards. Although the room was fine, I would definitely think twice about using the Crowne Plaza for a wedding. The food is big part of a wedding. This was a complete misrepresentation.

We had our wedding at this venue. We absolutely loved working with the wedding coordinator, Sharon. They were very reasonably priced, and the package took care of basically everything. All we had to do for the reception was show up with the favors and such and pick them up at the end. The vendors they use for the cake and flowers are also very easy to work with, and it was so nice have that cost counted in with the hotel. We are still getting compliments on the food and how nice the reception venue was. I highly recommend using them!

I had my wedding reception at this venue. The coordinator was very communicative and responded quickly to any emails or inquiries that I had. We were able to drop off our decorations the day before and the staff performed all of the set up. The ballroom was set up beautifully! We opted for uplighting and a monogram which elevated the space as well. We received numerous compliments on the drinks, appetizers, and dinner! The only note I have is that we opted for soup instead of salad since my husband prefers it, and it was room temperature rather than warm (but still tasty!). The venue staff was able to move the bars from the cocktail area into the ballroom for the reception which kept the party going all night long! The cake (Bethel Bakery) and table centerpieces (Donati's) were included in the package and were wonderful. The girls and guys both had getting ready suites in the hotel which made for awesome photos and a relaxing morning. I would not hesitate to book this venue! My husband and I wish we could relive the day!

My husband and I had the privilege to be the first couple to work with the new coordinator, Sharon Henderson, at the Crowne Plaza. Our reception was affordable, but beautifully put together, and the food was delicious! I kept getting comments that I was a \"calm\" bride leading up to our wedding, but honestly, there was nothing I felt the need to stress over since it was all taken care of. As an added bonus, Sharon helped us figure out how to bustle my dress in a pinch! Very pleased overall with everything.

The Crowne Plaza was absolutely perfect from the venue itself, to the food, to the wedding coordinator, Holly Goodman. This venue worked with us all throughout our planning process during the worst of covid to make sure that they were doing whatever they could to ensure that our day would be special. Holly is extremely professional and pleasant. Anything asked was looked into in a prompt manner. It was very clear to us when working with Holly how much she genuinely cared about making the details count. Our guests couldn’t say enough good things about how classy this venue was, how well everyone was attended to, and how delicious the food was. I would recommend this venue to anyone.

My husband and I were turned onto the Crowne Plaza by a family friend who works in the wedding industry in Pittsburgh. He told us the venue was beautiful, affordable, and the coordinators were the best in the city, and his advice definitely did not disappoint! I worked mostly with Kelli and she was amazing! She is organized, easy-going, and flexible to work around anyone's crazy schedule. When it came down to details, Kelly broke things down so the decisions seemed simple and came easy. Our package came with a variety of things included which made planning that much easier. All of the girls had a big hospitality room to get ready the morning of, which gave the hair stylist and makeup artist plenty of room in addition to room for the girls to relax. The staff sets everything up and takes everything back down. We have gotten numerous compliments on the venue, food, and service! We could not have asked for a better venue!

We had a great wedding ceremony and reception at Crowne Plaza South! Kelli and her staff decorated the ceremony and reception space BEAUTIFULLY and everything ran smoothly. The food was also excellent! Kelli and Shauna are very nice to work with. I think this venue is also reasonably priced. We only ran into a few minor problems, which were resolved. To avoid any issues, here are some tips: 1) If you are making hospitality bags, make one large bag for each room. We made one for each guest and some guests didn’t get them because the staff accidently gave 1 bag per room. We made 50 bags and had about 20 left. 2) Do not count on the bar in the hotel lobby to be open for your after-party. If they deem your wedding guests to be too rowdy, they will close the entire bar for everyone. Have a back up plan for another after-party location. 3) You may want to avoid making shots for the “dollar/shot” dance. You cannot do straight shots, so me made about 120 jello shots. More than half of them got lost in the kitchen that night so we didn’t have enough for everyone. We had about 80 that were found the next day. 4) Lastly, keep track of charges. Some people were incorrectly charged for rooms (including myself); however, when brought to their attention, they fixed the charges. With that all being said, I do definitely recommend this venue because as mentioned before, the wedding ceremony and wedding reception were amazing!

We didn’t have to worry about a single thing the entire night! Michelle and John were there during dinner and until the very end and always asked us if we needed anything and took care of all of our guests. The bartenders and servers were all so nice and helpful. We got our cake and dessert bar from Signature Desserts and centerpieces from Donati’s. Both the cake and centerpieces are included in your package and are totally worth it! One less thing to check off your list! We were treated like royalty the entire weekend! We also had a brunch at the hotel the following morning for our guests and everyone loved the food and had a wonderful time! If you are looking for a location in the South Hills make sure you stop and check out the Crowne Plaza, you won’t regret it!

My husband and I had our wedding at The Crowne Plaza on June 16th... we just got back from our honeymoon and I HAD to make sure I wrote this review right away. When we first started looking at venues, we weren't sure about The Crowne Plaza because it was the hotel by the mall near our house and didn't seem too special. When we went to visit, they were setting up for another wedding and we saw how beautiful it was, and our opinion definitely changed. In addition to that, Kelli seemed like she would be a dream to work with, and she definitely lived up to that. She is so genuine and kind, and I so appreciated that every conversation with her was like talking to an old friend. Even when we were months away and she had brides whose weddings were much closer than ours, she always made us feel like our wedding was the most important thing she was working on. Our wedding day was literally flawless, and it was all thanks to Kelli and her team. I can be pretty meticulous about details, but Kelli exceeded every expectation I had. From answering all of my questions and emails, to taking the boxes full of decorations and wedding items we left there the day before the wedding and turning them into the beautiful wedding that it was. I honestly cannot say enough about her and her team. The bartenders and servers were also amazing. They were so attentive to all of our guests. As for the actual hotel, you can't beat the package. We looked at almost identical packages as other hotels, but they were much more expensive. We used all of the vendors included (Donati Florist and Signature Desserts) and they were also amazing and the coordination between them all was such a relief to not have to worry about. The food was delicious! We did not hear one complaint from any of our guests. People absolutely raved about the butler passed hors d'oeuvres. As cliche as it sounds, our wedding was the best day of our lives and our guests can't stop talking about how much fun they had, and it is all thanks to Kelli. Cocktail hour and the ballroom were absolutely beautiful and we would not change a single thing if we had to do it again. She is truly a wedding miracle worker. We HIGHLY recommend The Crowne Plaza to anyone looking for a place to have their wedding. We are so grateful to everyone there for making our day so perfect!

We used all of the vendors included (Donati Florist and Signature Desserts) and they were also amazing and the coordination between them all was such a relief to not have to worry about. The food was delicious! We did not hear one complaint from any of our guests. People absolutely raved about the butler passed hors d'oeuvres. As cliche as it sounds, our wedding was the best day of our lives and our guests can't stop talking about how much fun they had, and it is all thanks to Kelli. Cocktail hour and the ballroom were absolutely beautiful and we would not change a single thing if we had to do it again. She is truly a wedding miracle worker. We HIGHLY recommend The Crowne Plaza to anyone looking for a place to have their wedding. We are so grateful to everyone there for making our day so perfect!

The Crowne Plaza wasn't the 1st venue we looked at, but obviously it was the last. We immediately clicked with the coordinator, Kelli, which was a big factor in deciding to book this venue. We got married on St. Patrick's Day and she made our day everything we'd hoped for, right down to the green champagne! Kelli was attentive and responsive during the planning process, and clearly had the experience needed to guide us in the right direction, while also being flexible and open to our suggestions. Our 150 guests fit comfortably in the ballroom, even with the large dance floor. An added plus was having the cocktail area open and available during the reception, immediately adjacent to the ballroom, so guests could have the space to sit and chat while taking a break from dancing.

Where do I even begin?!? The Crowne Plaza was the perfect place for our wedding. The location, price, service, and the wedding coordinator (Kelli Gorecki) cannot be beat. We had our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception at the Crowne Plaza. Everything was absolutely beautiful and wonderful. Because of Kelli we had complete confidence in our wedding. She was always available and responded to every crazy call and email from me quickly and with so much kindness. Kelli is truly one of a kind. She helped us so much. We chose the Crowne Plaza over the other hotels because we could just sense that magic from Kelli when she was talking to us about our potential wedding. She went out of her way whenever she needed to and even when she didn't need to, to make every detail we hoped and dreamed for happen. She did it with kindness. This place wasn't the type of place where you ask for one thing and they tell you that will be an extra charge, that will be an extra charge, etc. She helped us plan extra details within reason to help us stay in our budget. So many of the details were taken care of to make it a low stress planning experience for us. We got married under a beautiful arbor structure and I know she bought that off of us. So anyone looking to have an outside ceremony, I believe they still have the tools to make your wedding just as beautiful. They provided a wonderful room for us to stay in the night of our wedding and I was able to rent it out the night before for after our rehearsal. Our rehearsal was awesome and we were able to stay out late drinking on the patio with our out of town guests and wedding party. They were very accommodating to us, our wedding party, and our guests. Once our wedding was over, us and our guests that were still up for partying some more were able to all go drink in their hotel bar super late. I had the best night of my life and it was so much fun. I owe my beautiful and fun wedding to Crowne Plaza, my vendors, and especially to Kelli. My only regret is how long it took me to come on here and review Kelli and the Crowne Plaza. I only wish I had thanked her sooner for how much she did for us.

Kelli is amazing at what she does and she helped to create not only an elegant night, but an unforgettable one. We had over 200 people attend our reception and cannot say enough about the Crowne Plaza. All who worked their were extremely helpful and accommodating to us throughout the entire planning process and during the big day. The food was very good (we had a sit down meal) and was served hot and promptly. No one had to wait long ! We also loved the floral centerpieces which were provided within our package! If you want an all-in-one venue with exceptional customer service, look no further than the Crowne Plaza Pgh South!

The Crowne Plaza South is hands down the most amazing place to have your wedding. My husband and I looked at one other venue before going to the Crowne Plaza and this place blew that venue out. My husband didn't say much when it came to choosing the venue but than we meet with Kelli it changed his whole tune. We left from meeting with her and he literally said book it because Kelli seems to know her stuff and nothing will go wrong. He was absolutely right!!!! She is amazing to work with and keeps you calm throughout the whole process. She will answer your calls or messages anytime of the day or night. Everything was included cake, buffet, bar, centerpieces, uplighting, chair covers, and lien which Kelli will inform you when you need to meet with them which makes it so much easier on you. I remember right before the wedding I was informed Kelli would be on vacation and was heartbroken but I got to meet with Shauna who was literally just as awesome as Kelli. I remember when we arrived to the Crowne plaza they only let my husband and I in to see the ballroom to make sure it was everything we want. Literally was completely breath taken on how amazing it looked set up and matched my colors perfect. We have got nothing about complements from all of our guests how amazing the food was, the bar tenders were amazing to how wonderful everything was set up and decorated. It makes me feel so good to hear from everyone how my wedding was the first wedding in the longest time people have been to was the best wedding they have seen. Also, Daniel and John literally checked on us all night to make sure the night was running correctly. They kept asking if we needed anything throughout the whole night. Made sure we always had whatever we needed. Last but not least they let us party in the lobby with our own coolers they even help get us ice to keep everything cold. We kept the lobby going until 5am. lol This is worth every penny we spent!!! You will not be disappointed if you pick this venue and you will have a night to remember. Amazing people to work with. I wish I could do it all over again because it was perfect!!!

Our reception planning was much easier than expected due to the amazing work of the Crowne Plaza. Our day was more amazing than we could have hoped and everything ran so smoothly.

As soon as I met Kelli, I knew this was the place for us!!! The hotel just underwent a renovation last summer and the ballroom is stunning. The package with the Crowne includes the catering, your cake from Signature Desserts, centerpieces from Donati's florist, all your linens, an open bar, cocktail hour before teh reception, set up and tear down, and you can book a room block for your guests at a discounted rate. You bring them what you want set up, and they make it happen. Kelli, the wedding coordinator, has a infectious personality and makes you always feel as if you are her #1 priority through all steps. Shauna also works with Kelli and you can contact either of them and they are always willing to help. The banquet staff is outstanding, my guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about the service they received. Barry, the bartender, received high commentary from all of my guests, and LaJunta, Lynne, and Deb were our serving staff for the evening and all of them were just wonderful. My day was absolute perfection...I had ceremony and reception there and it couldn't have gone smoother. I was never stressed or overwhelmed throughout the entire planning process as I knew I was in good hands. The Crowne goes above and beyond for your wedding....you cannot do better than this hotel!!

You couldn't get a better price at any other hotel. Everything could not have been more perfect.I would highly recommend the crowne plaza Pittsburgh south. If I could go back I would do it there all over again!

If you want a fabulous wedding that will not cost you an arm and leg, this is the place to go. Kelli who is the director of catering and also the wedding coordinator is superb. She has definitely found her calling and that is make your event or in our case wedding to go as smoothly as possible. She was always helpful and is a truly lovely person. The appetizers were delicious and many of the guests said they would have been happy just to eat those. The actual dinner was beyond expectation. They do not skimp on size nor taste. The food was fantastic. All the guests were impressed and said it was one of the most beautiful weddings they have attended. I love the staff and especially Kelli....a big thank you to them all for making this a memorable day for all. We had the rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception. Why go anywhere else when you have perfection in one place.

Our daughter held her wedding reception at the recently remodeled Crowne Plaza Pittsburgh South. To say it was an amazing event is an understatement. Kelli (Director of Catering, Wedding Specialist) was phenomenal, patient, ingenious and most importantly - extremely professional. Her flexibility in working with us was superb and second to none. She promptly returned calls and emails. She even rectified a significant error on our part the afternoon of the event and no one was the wiser! The venue was amazing, the food delicious and the service impeccable. Throughout the event, the day prior, day of and day after, the staff was friendly, helpful and professional. What could have been a stressful time was actually fun, invigorating and virtually effortless on our part. I highly recommend this venue for any event. While the wedding was a month ago, we still receive positive feedback on the reception. Thank you Kelli and team!

We recently had our wedding reception at the Crowne Plaza, and could not have asked for a more perfect evening! Kelli, the wedding specialist, is absolutely amazing. Her upbeat and fun personality sold us on the venue, and she kept everything simple and organized so that our wedding planning was worry-free. The ballroom was decorated beautifully, the food was DELICIOUS, and the staff was attentive and helpful. Our guests had nothing but positive things to say about our reception. Not to mention, it was very reasonably priced compared to many other locations we looked into. Would highly recommend the Crowne Plaza for future brides!!!

She was so responsive any time we had a question and always seemed to know exactly what we wanted. She was the main reason we selected Crowne Plaza for our reception, and we are so glad that we did. It was truly breathtaking when we saw the venue all set up on the big day. Everything was perfect and no detail was overlooked.The food was incredible. We received countless compliments from our guests on how great the food was. It came out on time and was cooked perfectly. The banquet staff and bartenders were great and took great care of not only the bridal party, but the guests as well.For everything that was included in the package, along with the quality of everything, we got an amazing deal.

I highly recommend the Crowne Plaza Pittsburgh South to any brides! Kelli, my planner, was so helpful answering all my questions and was so accommodating for all of our and our parents special requests. She made everything stress-free and allowed me to really enjoy all the planning. Colleen was the manager on duty and was there all night at the reception and right there when I had any questions or needed anything. Which allowed me to have fun all night and not worry about anything going wrong. The whole weekend of my wedding the staff at the Crowne, from the front desk, servers, bartenders to housekeeping made me feel like the most important person staying in their hotel, even though I knew that wasn't true. They were all so friendly and helpful. We had a huge bridal suite, which made the whole day feel like a real fairytale. One of the things I liked most about using the Crowne was everything that was included in the price. I used the bakery they had included in the price, which was delicious and so easy to work with, they organized the delivery, and I used the florist included and they were amazing as well. It made it easy to have everything there and not have a ton to take home at the end of the night. All of my guests have been raving about how great and hot the food was, which doesn't always happen. I don't know how they did it but all the steaks were hot and done perfectly. Everything looked beautiful and all of my guests said it was the best wedding they have been to, which says a lot because we have a ton of weddings in our family. This venue is a must see!!!

She was available for meetings and by phone/email throughout the planning process and made things so much easier for us! The wedding package at the Crowne Plaza is a great deal...it comes with quite a bit included (for example, the cake and floral centerpieces), making the planning process much less of a hassle (we planned from out of town). Finally, Kelli is not only competent and professional, but you can tell that she loves what she does, and always has a smile on her face! It was great working with her. Having her around to ensure the reception itself ran smoothly was a huge relief. We could focus on our guests and enjoying the evening while Kelli handled the small details and things that came up throughout the reception. Having the reception in the hotel was perfect for the large number of out-of-town guests we had as well. Room reservations were handled seamlessly. We heard great things from our guests about their overall experiences at the hotel. I highly recommend this venue!!

My now husband and I chose the Crowne Plaza South as our wedding vendor because of the location and all of the services it provided. It was a little more money then we had wanted to spend, but totally worth it for all the services given. They work with a local florist to provide the flower arrangements for the tablets (which were beautiful) and also the cake that is again working with a local bakery, and it is part of the package. The food was amazing. Sometimes at weddings you can tell the food has been sitting in a heat locker for awhile (I worked in catering so I know this is usually the case), but the food tasted so fresh and great! I was completely pleased and we had many compliments about the food as well. The package also included an open bar, which everyone appreciated. The hotel provided a reasonable discount on a block of rooms. The hotel does have a bar/restaurant and a tiki bar outside during the summer months. My husband and I loved that we could still hang out with all our friends after the reception was over and we didn't have to go far. I think all of our guests that joined us liked it as well. Kelli, the wedding coordinator was so flexible and amazing, She gave great suggestions and was very creative. The day before our wedding when we dropped things up like table favors and the guest book, Kelli took care of setting everything up. We didn't have to do anything!

Like many couples, we were at several venues meeting with several people... and when we met Kelli it was a breath of fresh air. She was just as excited about our wedding as we were - it wasn't just a job for her. It is her passion, you can tell, and she is phenomenal at it. Throughout all of our meetings and tastings she was accomodating, friendly, flexible, and oh so patient as we swapped things out and changed things up quite a few times. She was available throughout the entire process (even cookie traying) to make sure we had what we needed and everything was going well. The food at the tasting was 'wedding food,' and really nothing too specail based on the reviews from the family we took... however the night of the wedding it was hot and delicous. EVERY table we stopped at said something amazing about the food, which let's face it, was SO much better than the tasting. I would hands down recommend this venue solely based on Kelli and her team. They will make any vision you have come to life and do it with a smile on their face. One of the bartenders saw that I didn't have a drink in my hand (I was drinking just Diet pop all night) and immediately came over with a Diet Coke .... I wasn't sure how he knew, but it was the little things like that :)

The Crowne Plaza did an amazing job! The wedding coordinator, Kelli, was fantastic. They were so easy to work with and you definitely get you money's worth with this hotel! I highly recommend this hotel. The reception room was beautifully done. I didn't have to worry about a thing!

Trying to decide on a wedding reception venue was an overwhelming experience but I'm glad we chose the Crowne Plaza! We weren't sure that we wanted to all inclusive package that they offered but everyone agreed at the end of the night that it was a great decision. Having a point person (Kelli) to contact with all of our questions and concerns during the planning process was a huge help, the food was excellent and the staff was great to work with. They provided us with a list of preferred vendors to start with. \r\rI'm not a DIY or crafty person and I didn't want to deal with making centerpieces or favors and with the Crowne Plaza's package, I didn't have to. For us, the location, the package value, and the staff made this a winning choice.

The Crowne plaza was amazing. Kelli the wedding planner set the room up better than I could have imagined. The food was great! All of our guests had only nice things to say about the venue as well as the food!

This hotel had by far the best package available in terms of pricing, and was also easy to work with. I have been to many weddings, and although I may be biased, I have never been to a wedding that went as smoothly as mine did.

Absolutely loved everything about the Crowne Plaza. Did not have to do much work when planning my wedding, they catered to my every need. My only complaint is that the hotel guests had easy access to the room, and did crash the party.

The rooms our family stayed in were great unfortunatly the honeymoon sweet was not so great. The fridge didnot work and we had cold things to be stored. The jaccuzzi was clogged and there was hair and dirt in the shower. The sink had back flow. It was NASTY..... when I called to complaing they told me since I didnt report it that night (2am we checked in mind you...and that wasnt the main focus of our night doing a walk through...we shouldnt have to)they refunded me 1/2 the cost of the room and gove me the other 1/2 in coupons. Like I would really stay there again. Thanks but no thanks.

The coordinator was amazing. She had a ton of suggestions and even told us about menu options that were not on the list. Also I loved that all I had to do was drop off the reception decorations and explain my vision and they did all the set up. Also great discount for Sunday reception.
