Intimate Wedding at Conestee Nature Preserve | Sabrina & Ben

Sabrina and Ben’s had an intimate wedding at Lake Conestee Nature Preserve. It was a heartfelt celebration of love and nature, that focused on simplicity and family. Held in a serene meadow surrounded by towering trees, their ceremony felt intimate and personal, perfectly reflecting their love for the outdoors. With just a touch of decor in soft blues and greens, the natural beauty of the park served as the primary backdrop, bringing their vision of a laid-back, nature-filled wedding to life.

For Sabrina and Ben, Contestee Nature Preserve wasn’t just a pretty location—it was a sentimental spot. Ben works at the park, and the couple has spent countless hours walking its trails with their beloved dog, Milo. Choosing this spot for their wedding felt like an extension of their everyday lives together. The ceremony took place under the shade of a giant oak tree, which made the setting feel grand. It was the perfect spot for two nature lovers to exchange vows and begin the next chapter of their lives.

Everything about their day was locally sourced, supporting the city they’ve made their home together. Dinner was held at Soby’s, a Greenville favorite, and dessert featured their all-time favorite sweet potato cake from Brick Street Cafe. The small, meaningful details kept the day relaxed and personal, just the way they wanted.

However, the most memorable part of the day came as we finished the ceremony and wrapped up family photos. Suddenly, the skies opened up and a torrential downpour hit. Thankfully, we had already captured all the important moments, but it added a spontaneous, fun twist to the day. Everyone sprinted for cover, and we headed downtown for a few more portraits. It was the perfect ending to a beautifully day!
