Indoor Wedding at Wellshire Event Center in Denver Colorado

October 14, 2022

Historic Wellshire Event Center Summer Wedding in Denver Colorado

I am so excited to share the last of my summer weddings on the journal today. August was super busy this year and I’m finally getting a chance to wrap up everything I photographed that month and finish it off with a bang by sharing Janelle and Erik’s beautiful wedding day at the Wellshire Event Center in Denver. The majority of their wedding day took place inside this gorgeous, historic event venue with their ceremony taking place inside their space with a large raised stage area. We did some portraits in and around the venue outdoors and their reception took place in their large ballroom area. I love all of the wood paneling, brick walls, and stained glass at the Wellshire Event Center. It has a really cozy feel despite being a large place. Janelle and Erik have three adorable sons and I love that they got to be a part of their wedding day. And they had a large wedding party who clearly love them to pieces. It was really a special day and a complete joy to photograph. I love what we created for them. Below are some of my favorite photos from their day that probably tell a better story than I ever could!
