May Showers!

Alaina was our planner for our May 25th wedding.. in Colorado, the weather can be a bit crazy in May! The forecast showed lots of rain and overcast weather for our evening ceremony but Alaina had come prepped with ideas and solutions if we had needed a new plan - her demeanor is really what put us at ease for what could have been a really stressful situation! She was prepared, punctual, and made our day so lively and special. As a bride planning from out of state, Alaina made my life SO easy. Cannot recommend her more! The venue itself was perfect - the exact location my husband's parents were married in 30 years ago! So cute and can fit any vibe.

So amazing!!! Made my dreams come true!!!

I recently got married at Lionsgate and it was truly the best night of my life!! All of the planning leading up to the wedding was made so smooth thanks to our provided coordinator, Madeline. We had 3 meetings before the wedding (aside from emailing back and forth) and each time we basically just told Madeline what we wanted and she made it happen! She’s like a fairy godmother!! The venue looked beautiful, the recommended vendors were awesome and so professional, the catering was delicious, really everything just went off without a hitch!!! Also this place is just sooo beautiful. When I was telling people about my wedding, I told them “I mostly just can’t wait for you to see how beautiful the venue is”. All of our pictures were sooo stunning and the getting ready suites were so much fun for all of the bridal party! Absolutely recommend!!!

Coordinating our dream day

Alaina was such a joy to work with! She was incredibly knowledgeable, offered opinions and advice when needed while still centering our vision and decisions, and was so supportive during the entire planning process. Despite having I’m sure several weddings at various stages that she was coordinating, we always felt like a priority and never waited more than 24 hours for a response, and usually it was even less than that. Alaina’s attention to detail often meant that she was a step or two ahead of us and our day ran so smoothly because of her tireless focus and boundless energy. I can not recommend Lionsgate enough because of the experience we had with Alaina!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
