Last week, I had the incredible opportunity to visit Omni Bedford Springs Resort and Spa for their wedding planner FAM tour, and I was absolutely blown away by the resort’s historic charm, elegance, and world-class service. Located just a short drive from Pittsburgh, this hidden gem offers everything a couple could want for a wedding.
A Warm Welcome with Historic Elegance
The moment I entered the lobby, I was greeted by an extraordinary carousel display crafted entirely from gingerbread and marshmallows—a delightful nod to the resort’s holiday spirit and attention to detail. Checking into my room on the Historic Side of the property was another highlight. My room featured a charming balcony where I could soak in the serene surroundings. To top it off, a bottle of wine and a dessert platter were delivered shortly after arrival—a small but thoughtful gesture that set the tone for my stay.
Memorable Dining and Late-Night Experiences
The FAM tour kicked off with a welcome reception and dinner in the 1796 Room, a space that exudes timeless elegance. Later, we enjoyed late-night snacks and cocktails in the Taylor Room, where the ambiance was cozy and inviting—perfect for unwinding after a full day.
The next morning began with a delightful breakfast in the Crystal Room, followed by a guided tour of the resort. From the elegant Colonnade Ballroom to the award-winning golf course and clubhouse, Omni Bedford Springs offers a variety of spaces to suit weddings of all styles and sizes. Whether you’re planning an intimate ceremony or a grand celebration, the resort can accommodate your vision with ease.
A Spa Experience Like No Other
No luxury retreat would be complete without a visit to the Springs Eternal Spa. I indulged in their custom facial, which was truly the best I’ve ever had. Paige, my esthetician, not only provided a relaxing experience but also offered personalized skincare recommendations. Couples who choose Omni Bedford Springs for their wedding can also treat themselves to pre-wedding spa services—a perfect way to relax before the big day.
Wine Dinner Excellence
One of the standout experiences was the Wine Dinner Experience in Constitution Hall. Greeted with a glass of Chandon and passed appetizers, I entered a beautifully decorated space featuring tall trees, custom lighting, and a stunning wedding cake masterpiece. Each course of the dinner was paired with a thoughtfully selected wine, and a brief presentation added a unique touch to the evening.
Farewell with Unforgettable Moments
The final day began with a Farewell Breakfast in the Reagan Ballroom, complete with custom espressos that featured printed photos on the foam. I couldn’t resist having an image of my mini goldendoodle, Waffles, printed on my hot chocolate—a fun and memorable detail!
Before departing, my fellow wedding planners and I explored the resort’s recreational options, including archery, tennis, history tours, and more. Couples who choose Omni Bedford Springs will love the variety of activities available for their guests to enjoy during their stay. As a parting gift, I received a snack-filled departure bag—another thoughtful touch that exemplified the resort’s hospitality.
