Nora & Dom | A Charming Wedding at Lionsgate

September 17, 2018 March 15, 2026 From the Hip Photo2618 views

Once upon a time, on a brisk November day, Nora and Dom said their “I Do’s” under sparkling chandeliers and among friends and family. We went back to one of our favorite wedding venues, the Lionsgate Event Center to photograph this charming wedding.

Lionsgate Highlights

Lionsgate Event Center, located in Lafayette, Colorado, offers a clean and brilliant space for any occasion in any style! Grand staircases make way for the bride’s princess train, and white chairs match white-slatted windows and swooping ceilings. Plus, every princess needs her magical chandeliers! Lionsgate has those too, and Dora looked radiant under the glittering lights and crystal.

The outdoor space is just as fantastic as the inside – trust us! The place has a style that combines rustic architecture with splendid castles fit for royalty. Guests can enjoy both glam and comfort in this space with its winding stone pathways and bending trees. Check out the other Lionsgate events we have photographed here!

Putting the “Charm” in Prince Charming

But enough about the venue – Nora and Dom looked like Princess and her Prince Charming all night long! Nora wore a princess ball gown decorated in delicate lace and crystals. Her bouquets had a moody, subdued tone that matched the November air just right. Orange and blush rose and deep burgundy looked beautiful in a bundle wrapped with small cherries and a little heart-shaped locket. Navy blue made a nice wedding tone too, for both her bridesmaids, tablecloths, and her groom dressed in blue.

As sweetly planned as this wedding was, the couple, of course, had the opportunity to let their personalities flourish. Goofy faces and full-belly laughs made numerous appearances. They fit right in with their guests during the dance party, and joyful sparklers sent the couple off as the night came to a close. Thank you, Nora and Dom, for a beautiful night to celebrate your love. We wish you all the best!

We’d also like to give a thank you to all of the vendors that assisted in making Nora & Dom’s day! First and foremost, thank you to Lionsgate Event Center for being home to such a beautiful wedding, Spice of Life for such awesome catering, Newberry Brothers for stunning floral arrangements, DJ Guy, and his tunes, gorgeous Hair by Alaina, Das Meyer’s yummy treats, and Kelsey Luciano Productions for capturing amazing wedding footage!
