- JJane22/04/2022A perfect dayA perfect dayWe got married at Hintlesham hall on the 9th of March this year. I fell in love with the venue as soon as we stepped in to the beautiful Orangery on the open day. Julie looked after us from the day we booked the date and was so thorough and professional and got back to us so quickly if we had any queries. The day went smoothly thanks to Anna and all the staff who looked after us and all our guests had a fabulous day. Many of them stayed and, like us, they loved the food, rooms and the excellent service we all received. We were able to add a personal touch by decorating the rooms with flowers and other wedding decor and the venue looked beautiful and just as I had imagined. I would thoroughly recommend the Events team at Hintlesham as they will look after you so well and make sure you have the perfect day like we did.We got married at Hintlesham hall on the 9th of March this year.

- SShona22/04/2022Shona & Joshs WeddingShona & Joshs WeddingOn the 30th May we were both lucky enough to get married at this amazing venue. The whole process has been brilliant and our wedding planner was on hand via email whenever we needed help. No request was too much and the general run of the day went without a hitch. The venue itself is stunning and we were lucky enough to have great weather. All members of staff were incredibly professional and the change from ceremony to wedding breakfast to evening dancing was seamless. I would advice checking the hotel's website for special offers as we managed to grab an amazing deal which included all suppliers, rooms and the hire of the hotel. We will be returning to Hintlesham every year to celebrate our wedding anniversary and highly recommend this hotel as a wedding venue. All that is left is to say a huge thank you to everyone at Hintlesham that made our wedding day so very special!On the 30th May we were both lucky enough to get married at this amazing venue.

- VVicky22/04/2022Wedding of dreamsWedding of dreamsOn 20th June 2019 myself and my now husband tied the knot at this beautiful venue. It was the best day of my life. We had an intimate wedding with close family and friends and I can't recommend Hintlesham Hall enough. All of the staff were so, so attentive, especially Tracy who is the wedding planner of dreams! It was a day that I will never forget in my life. We were treated like royalty and the venue is out of this world. The cost of our wedding was lower than what we could have planned and this was a huge bonus for us.On 20th June 2019 myself and my now husband tied the knot at this beautiful venue.

- TTracey22/04/2022Perfect location for a perfect Wedding dayPerfect location for a perfect Wedding dayWe married on the last day of June this year and everything could not have been better. As far as the location, it was the first and only location we looked at. The organisers are so friendly, helpful and professional. The Hall and grounds is just lovely for weddings and on the day we were both even more impressed and pleased with our choice. I must also recommend the food as also being excellent quality. So well organised by the staff through the day we didn't need to worry about a thing.We married on the last day of June this year and everything could not have been better.

- VVicky22/04/2022Wedding of the New DecadeWedding of the New DecadeWe chose the All Inclusive option so we could make a weekend of it as some of our friends and family had to come long distances from as far as California, Germany and Amsterdam. The weekend was made even better with the surprise appearance of Elton John (not the real one unfortunately). Tracy and the staff were so efficient and on hand to guide us effortlessly through the day. The food, flowers and cake were all superb as were the photographers and DJ. The setting of Hintlesham Hall just added to the special day. Many of our guests commented that it was the best wedding that they had ever been to!!
