Old Lystra Inn wedding – Cailin & Eric

Cailin & Eric’s wedding at Old Lystra Inn in Chapel Hill took place on a sunny fall Saturday. The couple wanted to maximize their time with their guests, so after their first look they joined everyone for lawn games and pre-ceremony chat chat.


Cailin got ready with her mom and her three sisters. Eric got the lawn games set up before getting dressed himself. He embroidered his tie with motifs from their relationship, and everyone who saw it loved it.



For their first look, they started chatting back to back and then moved away from another a few steps before turning. But Eric turned before Cailin and thus this pair of photos:

Bustling to go play lawn games and mingle






Time for everyone to find a ceremony seat!







The ceremony included sibling readings followed by music from the father of the groom and some friends and a unity ceremony of potting a tree. Perfect for these two nature lovers.





Time for more fun with friends and family!







Old Lystra Inn has a great fire pit area and this crew was making smores all evening.



And they kept on dancing through the evening!
