A Natural Paradise is Your Perfect Wedding Spot

Why not choose a natural and positively perfect setting for your wedding? Creasey Mahan Nature Preserve offers 170-acres in Goshen, Oldham County, Kentucky, about 25 minutes outside of Louisville. The Nature Preserve is a paradise for wedding couples, families and friends!

Creasey Mahan Nature Preserve’s grounds are idyllic for a wedding ceremony at any time of the year. With the gentle rolling hills, water features, forest, and open areas, there is a special spot for every couple. The 2-acre Woodland Garden is the newest favorite place for wedding ceremonies. It features arched bridges, beautiful plantings, a creek, pond, and waterfall. We would be happy to give you a special tour of favorite wedding locations to ensure that you find a perfect place for your special day.

It is natural that a wedding at the Preserve is “green” and nature-friendly. Couples are encouraged to plant a dogwood tree or purchase a “lovebird” bluebird box to symbolize their new union.

“It felt as though the trees were singing and as we looked around everyone had smiles on their faces—it was certainly a day to be remembered … it was perfect!“ – Happy newlyweds at Creasey Mahan!

Consider enjoying the natural paradise at Creasey Mahan Nature Preserve for your wedding day.
