What makes Tonya Edinger with Weddings of Pittsburgh a good neighbor?

Ever wonder what happens when a DJ business transforms into a wedding planning powerhouse? Tonya Edinger's journey from helping her husband's weekend DJ gigs to building Weddings of Pittsburgh reveals the power of identifying needs and creating solutions in the events industry.

Tonya shares how a modest $14,000 investment against their 401k in 1999 grew into multiple businesses including Weddings of Pittsburgh, Events of Pittsburgh, and Event Rentals of Pittsburgh. Her story demonstrates remarkable business acumen and adaptation, particularly during COVID when she pivoted to larger venues and complimentary rentals to keep celebrations alive while maintaining safety protocols.

What sets Tonya's approach apart is her design-focused, highly communicative planning style. She conducts detailed consultations that pinpoint exact preferences, creates venue mockups to visualize concepts, and maintains monthly check-ins throughout the planning process. "When people are telling you no, we're finding a way to say yes," she explains, highlighting her commitment to advocacy for her clients. Drawing on psychology and sociology training, she skillfully navigates complex family dynamics that often emerge during wedding planning, gently reminding parents that "it's not a redo for them" while honoring their desire to contribute.

For couples considering the DIY route, Tonya offers valuable perspective: "Yes, you can DIY, but then at the end, who are you going to give this baby that you've been nurturing to?" Her insight underscores the importance of having trusted professionals handle the culmination of months of planning, even for budget-conscious couples. Ready to explore stress-free wedding planning?
