Alicia & Connor’s Priston Mill Wedding
Bath Wedding Photographer
On 20th August, I had the pleasure of photographing Alicia and Connor’s incredible wedding at Priston Mill, just outside Bath. The day began at Bath Mill Lodge Retreat, where the bridal party and groomsmen were getting ready in separate lodges — perfect for moving between both to capture the laughter and excitement before the ceremony.
Morning Prep at Bath Mill Lodge Retreat
The day started with drizzle in the air, but that didn’t dampen anyone’s mood. The bridesmaids, dressed in soft light-purple dresses, filled the lodge with energy and laughter, while over in the grooms’ lodge, the atmosphere was full of banter and anticipation. The men looked brilliant in traditional Scottish kilts, adding a personal and striking touch to the day.
Ceremony at The Watermill, Priston Mill
Alicia and Connor tied the knot in the Watermill at Priston Mill, a venue full of rustic charm with its exposed stone walls and wooden beams. Despite the rain, we managed to make the most of the stunning setting, sneaking outside for some relaxed portraits between showers. The weather actually added to the atmosphere — the soft, moody light was perfect for storytelling images that feel timeless and natural.
A Relaxed BBQ Reception
After the ceremony, guests enjoyed a relaxed BBQ reception, the perfect choice for a summer wedding at Priston Mill. The magician Modern Con Man kept everyone entertained with jaw-dropping tricks, and the laughter didn’t stop there — the speeches were unforgettable, especially the father of the bride’s, which had the entire room in fits of laughter.
Evening Party and Dancing
As the evening set in, the band took to the stage and the dance floor came alive. It was one of the wildest I’ve seen in a long time — everyone was up, from start to finish. The combination of good food, great music, and even better people made it the perfect celebration.
I also captured a highlight video for Alicia and Connor — a complimentary addition while testing my new film offering for 2026. It was a brilliant chance to blend photo and video storytelling together and create a lasting memory of their day from every angle.
