WEDDING RECEPTIONS – THE MANSION AT MAPLE HEIGHTS HAS A COOL SECRET!! (Mansion at Maple Heights Wedding Photographer Pittsburgh)

The Mansion at Maple Heights is an absolutely *lovely* location for your wedding or your wedding reception.  Upon my arrival the first time I was there,  I was in awe of the gorgeous craftsmanship of the wood (which is basically everywhere you look!).  The entryway is stunning with a staircase that wraps around up to the second floor.

Each room within the mansion is used for different things.  In this case, they were used for a place where guests could congregate during cocktail hour:

This next photo is of the library:

As I’m walking around, I hear Tristan in the library shouting for me to come and see something.  Now, I know what you’re thinking….Tristan….in a LIBRARY?!  Yes, I agree.  Totally crazy.  But there he was, telling me that I needed to see something in one of the cabinets…..

He opens the cabinet so I can get a closer look…..

This mansion was built in 1903.  It has numerous unique nooks and crannies.  It just so happened that Tristan found one.  This guy has a nose like a bloodhound when it comes to alcohol.  Turns out, during Prohibition, the owner of the house made little hiding spots for his alcohol, making it a speakeasy!  Cool!

This makes Tristan VERY happy.  HAHAHAHAHA!

I leave Tristan alone and come back to find him in a different room.  Look how suspicious he looks…..

He’s saying “What?!  I didn’t do anything!”  Turns out, he found another hiding spot!  HAHA!!!!!

He’s so proud of himself.  🙂
