Anyone married at Priston Mill, Bath?

mouse_chalk, 20 March, 2009 at 18:29 Posted on Planning 0 5

Hi!

I am a complete newbie to Hitched, and we're getting married in the Tythe Barn at Priston Mill on 12th Sept this year. (I got engaged on 15th Feb this year, so I'm doing the whole planning within 7 months! Mad I know!)

I was just wondering if anyone else has been married, or is getting married there, and where you stayed? I'm looking for somewhere for me and my bridesmaids (2) and possibly 3 other friends to stay the night before, so we can all get ready together, and somewhere (possibly the same place) for me and my groom to stay on our wedding night. I want it to be nice, but not too OTT as I guess by the time we get there and check out in the morning we wont be spending too much time there! ?

Any reccommendations for somewhere that's reasonably priced? I've seen a few very nice large houses in Bath that cost the earth!!!

I feel like everything has fallen into place a little too well so far- I found 'THE' dress days after we got engaged, and Priston Mill just HAPPENED to have a cancellation for this year for the exact date we wanted that came in an hour before we called them. Plus my bridesmaids chose their dresses in about half an hour and loved them. I am starting to get a bit scared about when it all starts to go wrong lol! ?

    Hi and may the good luck continue. I can't help I'm afraid. But thought I'd say hello! ?

    Thank you, and hello! ?

    The best thing I can find is a 2 bedroom cottage nearby, which would be perfect for me and my groom on our wedding night, but a bit of a squash if I get all my girlfriends down there the night before lol.... Oh well, I'm sure we'll find something!

    We finally had our first bit of 'bad luck'- the photographer we really wanted was fully booked, but we have now got another one who is still great, just not as much for your money. And we have booked the florist and ordered invitations! ?

    Hi

    Welcome to Hitched?

    I am doing 2 weddings there this year and am based in Bristol. I can have a look for accomodation for you and also ask my Brides where they are staying.

    And thanks for the welcome too- I think my fiance is a little scared that I've found YET another forum to spend my time on! ?

    Hey, welcome to Hitched!

    I'm afraid I've only really come across Priston Mill in magazines but I have to say I thought it looked really lovely ?. We have family near Bath so when I saw it I did consider maybe getting married there but as we live in Cambs we decided to stay local. Good choice I say!

    Hi, and welcome! ?

    Can't help with the accommodation issue I'm afraid- I don't really know that side of Bath, but just wanted to say my Tog's sample album on his website is from a wedding he did at Priston Mill if you fancy a look:

    It's under Portfolio, example wedding 2.

    Hope everything keeps falling into place for you!
