About Springs Preserve

Springs Preserve — 333 S. Valley View Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89107Springs Preserve is a 180-acre cultural and botanical attraction three miles from the Strip, built around the natural springs that gave Las Vegas its name. As Las Vegas wedding photographers, we love that its Botanical Garden holds the region’s largest collection of Mojave Desert cacti and succulents, while a vine-covered arbor, classic gazebo, outdoor amphitheater, and terrace give couples several distinct backdrops on one property, all under golden-hour desert light.

Pros

  • A genuine desert-garden setting with the region’s largest collection of Mojave Desert cacti and succulents.

  • Multiple built-in ceremony-and-reception pairings on one property, so couples don’t have to travel between locations.

  • Ceremony-only packages are available Thursdays and Sundays for smaller weddings, minutes from the Strip yet feeling like open desert.

Getting Ready at Springs Preserve

Every package, including ceremony-only, includes one ready room with access from mid-afternoon through the end of the event. We recommend confirming the current amenities inside the room directly with Springs Preserve’s events team.

Couple’s Session at Springs Preserve

The vine-covered Garden Arbor, the classic white Gazebo, the Garden Amphitheater, the Courtyard Plaza, the Garden Terrace with panoramic views, and the 8-acre Botanical Garden filled with cacti and succulents all make striking portrait backdrops.

Wedding Ceremony at Springs Preserve

Ceremonies take place in a fixed one-hour block in the Garden Arbor, Gazebo, or Garden Amphitheater, which seats up to 100. All packages, including ceremony-only, require a licensed wedding coordinator, and events run after the property’s public hours.

Full packages pair the ceremony with a reception in the Garden Terrace, Agave Room, or Courtyard Plaza. There’s no exclusive in-house caterer, so couples select their own licensed vendor.
