Cassidy and Nick’s fall wedding at King’s Hill Inn + Barn was the kind of celebration that radiates warmth, authenticity, and intentionality. Set against the crisp October colors of Maine, their day was full of thoughtful details, joyful reunions, and two very important four-legged guests.
Planning Their King’s Hill Inn + Barn Wedding with Intention
Rather than rushing through the process, Cassidy and Nick took their time—intentionally planning their wedding over two and a half years. “It made the process feel much less stressful,” Cassidy shared. “Having that extra time allowed us to carefully choose our vendors without the pressure of everything booking up too quickly.”
That extended timeline also gave Cassidy the chance to hunt down antique pieces for their wedding décor—adding a layer of vintage charm and meaning that made the design feel even more personal.
A Venue That Felt Like Home
King’s Hill Inn + Barn in South Paris, Maine, checked all the boxes. “We wanted a venue that allowed our close family and friends to stay, since we had people flying in from so many places,” they explained. “It helped eliminate the stress of finding Airbnbs or hotels—and it allowed our celebration to last the entire weekend.”
And perhaps most importantly: “King’s Hill Inn + Barn allows pets—we couldn’t say ‘I do’ without our two pups joining in on the fun.”
A Private Vow Exchange and Perfect Autumn Weather
The morning of their wedding began with a little rain, but as the day unfolded, the sun broke through the clouds and Maine delivered the kind of crisp, golden October light that fall dreams are made of.
Cassidy and Nick chose to exchange their vows privately before the ceremony—carving out a moment of quiet for just the two of them before the celebration kicked off. “It gave us a chance to focus entirely on each other,” they said, “and the weather clearing just in time made it even more special.”
Vintage Fall Wedding Vibes with a Laid-Back Atmosphere
Cassidy and Nick knew they wanted a wedding day that felt relaxed and unforced. “We really wanted a laid-back vibe that didn’t feel overly structured,” they shared. “Our ceremony was short and sweet, which gave us more time to spend with our guests and to dance.”
Their theme blended fall tones with a vintage aesthetic. The antique decor pieces Cassidy collected over time added warmth and character to the space, enhancing the charm of the already picturesque barn venue.
Advice from the Couple
Cassidy and Nick’s planning philosophy was all about staying true to themselves. “It’s so important to design your wedding day in a way that feels right for both of you. Let go of traditions that don’t resonate, incorporate what truly matters, and be present for every moment.”
They also had a wise reminder: “The only ones who will notice if things don’t go exactly as planned are you two—so embrace the day as it unfolds, and remember that everyone is there to celebrate YOU.”
A Weekend to Remember at King’s Hill Inn + Barn
As the evening wound down and the dance floor kept buzzing, Cassidy and Nick looked around and soaked it all in. “It was so surreal to have every single person that we love in one place at the same time,” they said. “The feeling is truly unexplainable, and we wish we could go back and relive it over and over again.”
Their King’s Hill Inn + Barn wedding was a celebration full of heart, intentionality, and fall magic—made all the more meaningful by the love that surrounded them every step of the way.
