Fall Wedding at The Cliffs at Glassy Chapel


Dena & Andrew's wedding at the Cliffs at Glassy was the perfect example of how to hold an intimate wedding here at this iconic Greenville wedding venue.


Step one: choose the perfect fall day with crisp air, sunny skies, a slight breeze and a tinge of autumn colors in the trees. October will do nicely!


Step two: Invite your family and close friends, including having a friend officiate for you. A wedding party is optional - you can always take photos with your friends even if you don't have them stand up front during the ceremony and wear matching outfits.


Step three: Have a quick first look right before walking down the aisle to help calm your nerves.


Step four: Take full advantage of the beautiful scenery for couples' portraits! (Hire a Greenville wedding photographer with lots of experience at the Cliffs at Glassy! This is a gorgeous spot, and you want to make sure you capture every bit of it. It doesn't have to be me, but since you're here... feel free to say hi if you're looking for someone to capture your day!)


And finally: Hold an intimate reception dinner, on or off site. The Cliffs has wonderful reception options, and there are many other beautiful spots for a smaller guest list in the Greenville area as well. within just a short drive. Andrew and Dena invited their guests to join them for an intimate dinner at the Anchorage in the village of West Greenville with incredible food and an artsy industrial vibe.


Now without further ado - the photos from Andrew & Dena's wedding!
