NBA superstar Damian Lillard certainly has a lot to celebrate. Not only is he the face of an NBA franchise, he’s also the father of twins, who are still just a few months old.
But on Sunday, Dame celebrated his commitment to his partner, Kay’La Hanson, during their wedding day.
And while it was obviously a great time for Dame and his new bride, the guests of the party seemed to enjoy themselves as well.
On Twitter, footage went viral of several wedding guests (including Draymond Green, Bradley Beal, and Snoop Dogg) having a good time during the festivities.
Here are some of the highlights from the night:

Obviously, for Lillard, it was one of the most important nights of his life, and he certainly made it one to remember. At 31-years-old, it’s good to see him living his best life off the basketball court, especially with all that’s going on in his career right now.
After years of falling short in Portland, things got pretty tense this past summer when Dame starting making demands from the Blazers, putting pressure on them to build a true contender.
Amidst all the noise, Lillard himself has fought against the narrative that he wants a trade and has done everything he can to let the world know where his loyalties are.
“When you go into free agency and things like this, you never know what happens,” Lillard said. “You never know where guys are going to end up and why they go there. You just try to have conversations and convince guys to be a part of our team.
“And obviously, this go around, we wasn’t able to go out there and just get some of the guys that we would have liked, and you go down the list and you go through the guys that are out there that you like who haven’t committed to a team or was a part of your plans in free agency and you get the ones that want to be a part of what you’re doing. And I think that’s what we did.”
It remains to be seen if Dame will really end up spending his entire career with the Blazers.
Whatever the case, he’s not worried about all that right now. He’s a family man, after all.
