Highly recommended for anyone looking for a stylish, one-of-a-kind wedding venue.
I’ve visited The West Mill multiple times, and it never fails to inspire! The service is always outstanding, making every shoot run smoothly and effortlessly. As a documentary wedding photographer Lauren LHT Photography, it creates the perfect natural backdrop for capturing authentic, emotional moments. Over time, I’ve discovered all the hidden gems around The West Mill, ideal for those magical, candid shots that tell a beautiful wedding story.
As a modern wedding photographer, I would recommend the West Mill to any of my future couples looking for a quirky industrial wedding venue that has plenty of space for a good party. My favourite thing about West Mill is that there are 4 amazing floors - one for the ceremony, one for the wedding breakfast, one for the evening ceremony and one for your welcome drinks, not to mention the courtyard just outside for when the weather is nice. The ceremony room and dining room have lots of windows, which means you not only get a lot of beautiful daylight inside the venue, but you also get a lovely view over the Rivert Derwent. The party room is super kitsch, with 50's style booths and old fashioned items dotted about, which really gives the venue character. When it comes to the couples portraits, I'm always looking for something a bit different, so as well as shooting on site and on the bridge with the venue and river as the backdrop, there's also a little industrial estate next door. This is perfect for adding contrast and a bit of an urban style to the portraits. The staff at West Mill are always fun and helpful, and I've always been fed well, which makes such a difference to my day, which can be quite long and tiring. Can't wait to be back!
Team Edwards Photography. One of the very best wedding venues for miles around. Laid out really well to guide guests through different levels as the day progresses. Creates a really good experience for everyone. Full of original quirky features so provides something really different to the more traditional wedding venues.nCapturing wedding photographs at West Mill is always a pleasure and the results are always epic.nGive me a shout if you want an unbiased opinion/recommendation of the venue.
