Wedding Guide
Hintlesham Hall Hotel is a magnificent 16th century grade I listed country house set in beautiful, peaceful and mature grounds and is approached via an impressive tree-lined drive.
Whether you are planning an intimate, traditional occasion or a larger, vibrantly spectacular celebration, Hintlesham Hall Hotel has everything you require for your perfect wedding venue:-
Our friendly and expert team will work with you to plan and organise your wedding from the initial show round and will be on hand to assist you as your plans progress, providing a wedding service that is second to none.
Please use this guide as an introduction to weddings at Hintlesham Hall Hotel.
Civil Ceremony Four beautiful rooms of the house are licensed to perform civil ceremonies.
We do not usually hold civil ceremonies only without having the wedding breakfast at the Hall, however, we may consider this possibility out of prime time – prices for civil ceremonies only on application.
The timings for your civil ceremony depend upon your evening reception and can be discussed at the time of enquiry.
To arrange a registrar to attend your civil ceremony, the bride or groom should contact the Ipswich Registrars direct to check availability of dates and times on 01473 583051.
As part of our wedding service, we can co-ordinate your personal choice of CD music for the entrance of the bride, signing of the register and bride and groom’s exit. Alternatively, you may like us to help arrange live musicians, such as a string quartet, harpist, pianist or guitarist.
