Jordan and Noah were engaged on a beautiful fall evening in downtown Greenville, South Carolina!

When I talked with Noah, he told me that they had moved here together from the Midwest after they met in college. He said they liked walking the Swamp Rabbit Trail together and he wanted to propose downtown. We talked about possible places to do it, since there are so many beautiful places in downtown Greenville, and we ended up choosing the Carolina Foothills Garden Club Sanctuary. This is a shadier spot off in the woods, just out of sight from the Liberty Bridge, but super easy to stumble upon. There are stone staircases and a small waterfall. The bonus is that the sun comes through the trees to the back, making for some glowy lighting, I went there a few days beforehand and sent Noah a video so he could see where I would be and where I’d want him to stand. As soon as I got into view, Noah got down on one knee. It was a much more private spot than the Liberty Bridge or the Reedy River Falls, but there were still a few people on the stairs who cheered them on.

Noah had told Jordan that they were going to try the restaurant Limoncello for the first time, then go to one of their favorite spots: Jack and Diane’s piano bar. The reservation for Limoncello was later than what Noah actually told her, but he gave enough time for photos and for sharing the news with their family and friends. By making a dinner reservation, he also was able to get Jordan to wear something she would want to wear in photos.

Enjoy some of my favorite photos of Jordan and Noah on this beautiful November evening in Falls Park!
