Being a Cornwall wedding photographer, I get the privilege of photographing some of the best venues the county has to offer. Ta Mill in North Cornwall is one such perfect place to tie the knot. It has everything required for a perfect wedding including lodges for guests to stay. Lauren and Joe and chosen this venue as they loved the scenery and relaxed feel and wanted everything in one location.

The Morning

My day started early with Lauren and her bridesmaids as they were getting reading in one of the cottages. It was a very relaxed and calm atmosphere.
Joe and his ushers were staying in a cottage less than 100 ft away so I was able to drift between the two for most of the morning. As with most groom and ushers mornings, it mostly consisted of the guys trying to tie their neatest tie and work out how to pin buttonhole flowers on their jackets.

The Ceremony

The service was held outdoors, only a short walk from the cottages and the weather was perfect for this. It was a beautiful service with breathtaking views. After the service, the guests lined up at Ta Mills designated ‘Confetti Run’ to await the newly married couple. It was a snow storm of dried petals which I’m still finding in my camera bag to this day. They are some of my favourite confetti shots in all the years I’ve been a Cornwall wedding photographer.

There was plenty of time during this relaxed day to capture some group shots and take Joe and Lauren for some couple shots before food.

The Afternoon/Evening

The delicious food was followed by speeches, some of which had me laughing hard! The rest of the evening was just as laid back and relaxed as the day itself. A bouquet toss, lot’s of socialising and even a traditional Scottish ‘Ceilidh’ band provided entertainment for most of the early evening. It was then on to cake cutting and a first dance before the party started.  It was a beautiful wedding day and I wish Joe and Lauren all the very best with their lives together.
