Small and Intimate Roman Baths Wedding

Gemma & Rhys, March 2024

Gemma and Rhys chose the Roman Baths in Bath for a small, intimate wedding that was all about connection, personality, and timeless elegance. With only their closest family and friends in attendance, every moment felt heartfelt and meaningful. As a Roman Baths wedding photographer, capturing this type of intimate celebration is a joy, allowing every smile, laugh, and tender glance to be preserved naturally.

The morning began with quiet anticipation, followed by a ceremony in the historic halls of the Roman Baths. The venue’s combination of grand architecture and rich history made every interaction feel cinematic, without ever needing to stage anything. Gemma and Rhys’ vows were full of warmth, and the reactions of their small group of guests made the day even more personal and emotive.
