The History of The Frogmill Cheltenham
The Frogmill Cheltenham is a noted wedding venue nestled at the heart of Andoversford in Gloucestershire. With its first mention dating back to the time of the Doomsday Book (1086), the venue preserves a profound sense of historical heritage. Its name, “The Frogmill,” was inspired by the historical presence of paper and corn mills that were established on the facility’s site during the 11th to 16th centuries. Interestingly, the term “Frog” is believed to have evolved from the Anglo-Saxon term ‘frig’ meaning ‘free’ – an embodiment of the peace and tranquillity the place possesses. Formerly an inn during the 17th century, it became widely-modernised in 2007, transitioning into a perfect blend of rustic beauty and modern elegance. The Frogmill has become an ideal wedding venue, offering spacious indoor and outdoor locations accompanied by luxury accommodation. In addition, the beautiful river Windrush flows by, offering a breathtaking landscape that enchants many couples.

FAQs
Picking your The Frogmill Cheltenham Wedding Photographer- why Pedge Photography?
Besides the fact that you are getting a highly professional, experienced, and creative photographer who will capture all of the special moments of your wedding day, family and friends, you are getting someone that goes in to each wedding knowing that every couple is unique and that all weddings deserve their own twist and personality, rather than be provided a conveyor belt experience. I take great pride to subtly merge into your day and to be approachable for all your guests. The Cotswolds is an area I grew up in and I am all too familiar with everything the region has to offer.
What products do you offer as a The Frogmill Cheltenham Wedding Photographer?
This can bespoke based on your needs. All packages include a digital gallery in which you, your family and friends can enter with a password and download to any device. On top of this, you can also purchase prints, framed goods and albums through the digital gallery. If you would like me to build you an album, I offer an additional album package as well. Other bits, should you wish to choose them, include a pre-wedding shoot in the cotswolds or a second photographer for your wedding day.
