Things To Do
Table Rock Tea Company
We found this place when exploring South Carolina and deciding to get married at A Pretty Place. The family who run this farm are so kind; they offer tours and some delicious tea! Ky's favorite is their Carolina Lapsang tea, and Lulubee loves their Chai. :)
Gather GVL
We went on a date here before heading off to cheer on the Swamp Rabbits (our new favorite hockey team). It has a great atmosphere and many delicious food and beverage options to choose from. Our favorite find was the Pink Lemonade Frosé from the Juice Box Wine Bar. :)
Grant Meadow Overlook
This is a beautiful spot to take in the wonder of the mountains and surrounding area; if you're looking for a moment of tranquility (or some nice photos), this is a lovely place to take a moment and breathe. :)
Swamp Rabbit trail
We love meandering along this path and experiencing this special city on foot and bicycle; there are new delights around every bend and some lovely benches along the way.
Country House Cafe
Country House Cafe was a beacon for us on a cold, hungry night. The folks were super sweet and the food quite delicious. :)
Table Rock State Park
If you're looking to get outside and enjoy the fresh air and beautiful views South Carolina has to offer, then you'll love the trails at Table Rock State Park. :)
Sully's Steamers
We took Ky's family here and had an amazing time. The folks were kind, and the grub was GOOD! :)
Rock Quarry Garden
Greenville is a wonderfully walkable city with lots of sweet parks and green spaces. The Rock Quarry Garden is one of those hidden gems we recommend exploring. Please note there are lots of stairs to get down into the garden. :)
Table Rock reservoir Overlook
If you're seeking a moment of peace and some beautiful views, this overlook will treat you well. :)
Sun Belly Cafe & Catering
Deb and her team at Sun Belly Cafe are amazing! They are a locally-oriented, farm-to-table, vegan-friendly cafe. They offer gluten-free and dairy-free options always. Their produce is sourced from farms in the surrounding area, and they partner with experts from the community to offer trainings and workshops on sustainable food and holistic health practices. We couldn't be more excited to have them preparing the food for our reception (we'll have an expanded menu, including meat, to cater to a variety of palates). :)
Mice on Main - Scavenger Hunt
Can you find the nine bronze mice living on main street? Join the tradition and see if you can spot each of these tiny treasures during your stay.
Toads on Trade - Scavenger Hunt
If you've enjoyed the hunt for the mice on Main, venture over to nearby Greer for their toad extravaganza. More tiny, beloved creatures, more fun for everyone. :)
MaraBette & Co Tea and Hospitality
We've had MaraBette teas a couple of times from local shops around Greenville, and they are absolutely delicious. :)
Bald Rock Heritage Preserve
Kyle and I enjoyed a quiet moment here before taking some engagement photos on a recent visit. This is an easily accessible and beautiful overlook. :)
Clare's Creamery
I (Lu) am a self-proclaimed ice cream fiend. I knew I was interested in having ice cream served at our wedding, and was lucky to find this gem online. We ventured here on our last trip to Greenville and absolutely fell in love with it. We both agree that it was the best ice cream we've ever tasted. They use high-quality, local ingredients and hand craft each batch. They have two locations in Greenville: this one on E. North Street and another on Laurens Rd. :)
The Wyche
We found this gem while exploring Falls Park on the Reedy one day, and fell in love with it. This beautiful, old brick structure by the water has history as one of the oldest commercial buildings in Greenville.
