“Wow we don’t even know where to start, as you can imagine we have been in such a bubble ever since our big day. Our wedding day was everything we wished for and more. You guys are just amazing and we can’t thank you all enough, from our first day coming to view to the planning process to our big day, everything just ran so smoothly, you guys have been an absolute credit. Yous have helped us in so many ways. Yous have listened to everything we asked. And our day was beautiful because of that. Not only did we have the most amazing day, our guests did too, we have had so many comments back saying “it’s the best wedding I’ve ever been to” “that is how you do a wedding” “the staff were all amazing” “this venue is stunning” it’s just incredible, very overwhelming but we’ll be forever grateful for that. Big big thank you to you and David for being with us on the morning of our wedding making sure everything is running smoothly. Big big thank you to Alicia for all her help and support. And to every other Ellingham staff member present on our big day, thank you because without all of you guys we wouldn’t have had any of that! I wish we could just do it all again, it was perfect! Forever grateful.”

“Thank you so much for helping us have the wedding of our dreams! We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day (or 3!) Our guests had a blast and we were blown away by how everything turned out. We especially appreciate your flexibility and willingness to answer all our questions. Special shootout to Alicia and Wendy for all their help on the day. Thank you so much!”

“First of all we would just like to say how grateful we are to the full team for helping us with every aspect of our wedding in August. Everyone pulled out all the stops at every opportunity to deliver the most precious two days we could have ever imagined. The full team was so organised and prepared from start to finish and all our guests were in awe of your beautiful venue.

Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived and we could never thank every last one of you enough for this. From the second we arrived we were made to feel welcome in the most amazing setting and everything from the atmosphere, grounds, food and drinks where just out of this world.

Finally can we give the most special thanks to you Debbie for having the most amazing eye for detail and coordinating all the finer things. For dealing with all my last minute changes (god knows there was plenty) and for being such a good support to myself through out the whole process. Your dedication and love for your job is evident for all to see and you are amazing! Nothing was to much much for you and you made me feel so comfortable and at ease during our discussions. Again, we would never be able to thank you enough for all your help and support and will be forever grateful to you for this.”

“I have hosted seminars for over 30 years, all over the country at various well-known venues. At Ellingham Hall you remember everything, from the beautiful quirky venue which has retained its historic features, the friendly staff, great service and the delicious food and amazing coffee! The meeting room had good light and was the perfect size for our event. It was lovely to have use of the comfortable reception rooms too for breaks and lunch. I was very impressed with the extra spaces such as the basement games room and rooftop networking terrace. It is a hidden jewel in the North-East and I am planning to return soon for a private family event”

We can’t believe that it has been a month since you helped us tie the knot! We just wanted to o send huge hugs and a MASSIVE thank you to David, Debbie, Wendy, Alicia and the entire team at Ellingham for the most unforgettable wedding (Lauren’s mam is still crying!)

We have spoken every day since with each other and our friends and family about how we couldn’t have wished for a better couple of days and although Ellingham is a magical venue, that is truly because of you guys. Everything from the food, to the service, to the running of the day itself was an absolute dream and totally exceeded anything we could have hoped for. No request was too much and every single member of staff is an absolute credit to your team – it really is no wonder you guys are THE BEST Wedding and Events Team in the North East (Congratulations by the way! – thoroughly deserved!).

A massive thank you again to each and every one of you for making our wedding so magical, we can’t wait to come back up and see you all again!

“Thank you all so much for everything you did to help with our Annual Forum and Celebration Concert on Thursday. As usual, I was a bag of nerves for much of the day, but the calm efficiency of Connor and his team helped to get me through. I will definitely recommend Ellingham Hall as a corporate venue. Surprisingly, a lot of the attendees were unaware of the Hall and what you’re able to offer. The fact that we could move from one room to another and have two very different events at the same venue was a big draw for us. “
