Vibrant Love and Disco Balls 

Dove House at Lionsgate, Lafayette Colorado

Ben & Jaimee’s wedding day at the Dove House at Lionsgate was nothing short of extraordinary! Even though the sun decided to turn up the heat, the day was absolutely amazing. Everyone, from the bridal party to the guests, was bursting with energy, excitement, and fun. With vibrant colors, disco balls, and a crew that knew how to party, the entire day was a celebration of love and joy.

Let’s rewind for a second—when we did Ben & Jaimee’s engagement session at In-N-Out, I knew their wedding day would be epic. If you haven’t seen those shots yet, do yourself a favor and check them out! From that day on, it was clear these two were the definition of fun.

On the big day, Ben and his guys made an unforgettable NFL-style entrance, and wow, did they rock it! Christopher hung out with them afterward, capturing all the pre-wedding vibes as they chilled with drinks, video games, poker, and pool. They were so energetic; it was like a bachelor party rolled into the wedding day!

Meanwhile, Jaimee’s ladies were living their best lives in matching pink pajamas with feather-adorned robes—talk about cozy and cute! While Jaimee got pampered by her Salon Family, the bridesmaids stepped out to play foosball on the most adorable wedding chapel foosball table, handcrafted by one of Jaimee’s bridesmaids. The creativity and thoughtfulness were next level!

Speaking of DIY, Jaimee is an absolute mastermind. For the past year, she’s been hard at work crafting every detail for the wedding—signs, bouquets, boards, you name it. And let me tell you, the result was nothing short of spectacular. The amount of color, personality, and fun she infused into the decor was mind-blowing. I couldn’t believe everything was DIY’ed—she truly has a gift!

Once Jaimee’s hair and makeup were flawless, she stepped into the Bridal Suite to put on her gown. Her dress was a dream come true—clean lines with delicate flowers adorning the off-shoulder cap sleeves and bodice. And then, there was the train—cathedral-length tulle with white flowers sporadically placed, straight out of a fairytale. It was perfect for her, and she was ready for her Daddy-Daughter First Look, followed by her First Look with Ben.

Ben, looking top-notch in his white tuxedo jacket with black lapels (pure class with a splash of bold), stepped onto the terrace for their First Look. With his back turned to the doors, Jaimee called his name, and when he turned around, the way his eyes lit up… you could see all their nerves melt away. That moment was pure magic.

Their ceremony was held outside under the Swing Tree—such a majestic setting. I loved how they let the grandeur of the tree and lanterns be the natural backdrop for their vows, alongside pillars and flowers. Matt, Jaimee’s brother, did a fantastic job as the officiant, making the ceremony both heartfelt and memorable. They had a beautiful moment to remember loved ones who had passed with a butterfly release, and then, to keep things fun, they spun a wheel app to decide who would read their vows first. (Jaimee won!) Their vows were full of love and appreciation, and by the time Matt pronounced them husband and wife, everyone was ready to celebrate!

And celebrate they did! The Grand Entrance, cocktails, dinner, toasts, and first dances were held in the Dove House backyard under the twinkling lights and stairs. The bridal party brought their A-game with choreographed dances, feather boas, and all the energy in the world. Ben and Jaimee danced down the stairs to their own song, setting the tone for an unforgettable night.

Dinner was an absolute hit, thanks to the In-N-Out Food Truck rolling in with all the favorites—Double-Doubles, Animal Style, you name it. Seeing everyone in their In-N-Out hats was such a fun touch! The first dances were some of my favorites, too—under the stars, with the perfect ambiance. And when it came time for the father-daughter and mother-son dances, the sweet, traditional moments quickly turned into hilarious, entertaining dances that had everyone laughing and cheering.

As the night continued, the party vibes only got stronger. The dance floor was packed, and the great room’s foosball games were going strong. And that giant disco ball? Absolute perfection. Jason, the DJ, kept the energy high, playing all the hits that had everyone dancing the night away.

When it was time to send the newlyweds off, guests lined up outside with their phone flashlights, spontaneously singing “Sweet Caroline” as Jaimee and Ben made their grand exit in a convertible white Bug. It was the perfect end to an incredible day.

Ben and Jaimee, from the very first moment we met you two, it was clear how deeply you care for each other and those around you. Your wedding reflected everything that makes you such a special couple—full of creativity, love, and the kind of joy that’s infectious. It was an honor to capture these moments, from the quiet, heartfelt exchanges to the loud, laughter-filled celebrations.
