Brenden & Acacia

Black & White Elegance Wedding

Dove House at Lionsgate

When Brenden and Acacia walked into their wedding day, it was clear that elegance and love were in the air. Their black and white color palette set the tone for a timeless, classic celebration that matched their personalities perfectly. And let’s just say, this wedding was everything we hoped for—and more.

As soon as we arrived at the beautiful Dove House at Lionsgate Event Center, the excitement was palpable. Acacia and her bridal party had just arrived, all glammed up with hair and makeup looking flawless. We couldn’t wait to capture the fun, so we jumped right into some pajama and mimosa photos. These ladies brought their A-game—each one rocking a black dress with a twist. The variation in their dresses was so much fun, and we loved how it reflected their personalities while still keeping everything cohesive.

Then, it was time for Acacia to get into her dress, and wow. I’m not even sure where to begin. This gown was truly a work of art. A-line silhouette with a full skirt and a train that took my breath away. But wait, the best part? The embossed flowers. They were the perfect touch, adding layers of elegance and texture. And when she added the cathedral-length veil? I could barely contain myself—that was the moment we knew this wedding was going to be magical.

Meanwhile, Brenden and the groomsmen were off doing their own thing—NFL player-style photos, anyone? They were ready for their close-up, and we couldn’t wait to get some fun shots before heading downstairs to their “man cave” for some chill time. Video games, pool, and poker, of course. It’s always fun to see how differently the guys get ready compared to the ladies, and this was no exception.

Although Brenden and Acacia didn’t do a traditional first look, they still had some surprises in store for each other. The besties stepped in to deliver their gifts, and let me tell you, the look on Brenden’s face when he opened Acacia’s gift was priceless. Acacia had custom-made a book just for him, and his reaction? It was pure magic.

In return, Acacia’s gift was nothing short of stunning—a gorgeous pair of diamond earrings from Brenden. How’s that for a little sparkle on your big day?

As for the weather…well, Colorado definitely kept us on our toes. One minute, we were outside capturing the perfect shot, and the next, we were racing inside to avoid a sprinkle. But by the time the ceremony began, the weather turned into a photographer’s dream—billowy clouds, blue skies, and sunshine. Talk about a lucky break!

Then came the moment we had all been waiting for—the moment. As Acacia’s dad walked her down the aisle, Brenden was absolutely glued to her. It was impossible to miss the tears in his eyes as he saw his bride for the first time. The ceremony itself was full of emotion, and the vows they shared were everything you could hope for—heartfelt, personal, and filled with promise. When they said “I do,” the cheers that followed were pure joy.

The rest of the evening was filled with celebration. From toasts and cake cutting to their first dances, the night was full of love, laughter, and dancing. And when the dance floor opened up? Acacia completely owned it. She was out there like a queen, while Brenden relaxed on the sidelines, soaking in the magic of the night. The energy was contagious, and everyone had a blast.

Brenden and Acacia, thank you for allowing us to capture these priceless memories. Your wedding day was a true reflection of your love for each other, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have been a part of it. We love you both and wish you nothing but happiness as you embark on this incredible new chapter in your lives!
