Warm glowing marquee letters at a Pittsburgh celebration

“The marquee letters were the centerpiece of our entire reception. Every picture we love has them glowing in the background.” – Jenna, Lawrenceville bride

Every great night deserves its own glow.

Think about the last celebration that truly stayed with you. It wasn’t just the cake, or the playlist, or the venue. It was a single feeling—a moment when everything came together and the room felt electric.

At Pittsburgh Marquees, we build those moments out of light. From towering “MARRY ME” letters at surprise proposals on Mount Washington to bold “THIRTY” displays for downtown rooftop parties, our pieces quietly frame the memories you’ll look back on for years.

You focus on the people you love. We’ll make sure the room feels as special as they are.

Loved by Pittsburgh hosts, planners, and newlyweds.

Our favorite part of the job is hearing how our marquees changed the feel of a room—and showed up in nearly every photo.

“When we walked into the venue and saw our last name glowing on the dance floor, I actually teared up. It felt like the whole room was celebrating us.”

— Jenna & Chris, South Side wedding

“As an event planner, I’m picky about vendors. Pittsburgh Marquees is a dream to work with—on time, professional, and the letters always steal the show.”

— Mariah, Pittsburgh event planner

“We booked last minute for a graduation party and they still made it happen. The ‘GRAD’ letters became the photo spot for every cousin and grandparent.”

Questions before you book?

Here are answers to the questions we hear most from Pittsburgh hosts, couples, and planners.

Need a quick answer?
Send us your date and venue and we’ll reply with availability and a custom quote within one business day.

How far in advance should I book my marquee letters?

For spring and fall weekends in Pittsburgh, we recommend booking 2–3 months in advance to secure your date and your preferred wording. That said, we often accommodate last-minute bookings if inventory and delivery windows allow—reach out and we’ll do everything we can to say yes.

Do you deliver and set everything up?

Yes. Every package includes delivery, full setup, and takedown. Our team coordinates with your venue, finds the safest placement for your letters, and tests all lighting before we leave. After your event, we return to quietly collect everything so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

Are the marquees safe for kids and outdoor use?

Our structures are weighted and designed to be stable, and our bulbs stay warm—not dangerously hot. For outdoor events, we’ll review surface, weather, and power access to make sure everything is safe. In high winds or severe weather, we may recommend indoor placement for everyone’s safety.

Can I customize the phrase, and what if it’s long?

Absolutely. Many of our clients spell last names, inside jokes, brand names, or full phrases. Shorter words often fit in a single line; longer phrases may be styled in stacked or staggered layouts. During booking, we’ll help you design something that looks balanced and beautiful in your space.

What areas around Pittsburgh do you serve?

We regularly serve venues in downtown Pittsburgh, the North Hills, South Hills, Monroeville, Robinson, Cranberry Township, and surrounding neighborhoods. If you’re outside these areas, let us know your venue address and we’ll confirm availability and any small travel fee.
