Mary and her team at The West Wing are always so helpful, right from enquiry through to the event. Always very accommodating and supporting and having a calming influence! They are all very professional and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them and the setting to anyone.

Peter who was the Operations Manager was fantastic, we had some problems with the registrar and he called them which was very reassuring to us. It was also good to meet him the day before and to see that he was very capable and unflappable.

The West Wing is delightful both as a fabulous venue and as a great place to feed and drink with superb service. I thanked you all verbally, but I needed to get it in writing to you. Lunch was delicious, hot, tasty, served quietly and efficiently by smartly dressed, smiling, well trained staff.

Just wanted to say a very big and heartfelt thank you to you and all the staff at Ickworth House for making my daughter's wedding such a superb and delightful event. Peter, supported by all the other staff ran the whole day to midnight celebrations like top class professionals (which they are). We could not have asked for anything better. It gives me great pride and pleasure to recommend Ickworth House and it's team to anyone looking for a beautiful impressive and stress free wedding.

I just wanted to say a very big THANK YOU for looking after us so very well last night. I thought the evening was fantastic, you and your team were absolutely brilliant. A special thank you to the Chefs for pulling out all the stops and accommodating an extra 10 people. What a relief. The weather was on our side, which in such a beautiful place set everything up a treat

The venue was excellent. We looked around so many wedding venues in Suffolk and The West Wing was by far the best. The room was set up perfectly on the day. I looked around when we arrived and everywhere was perfect and beautifully set up. It looked like so much care and attention had been taken to ensure everywhere looked at its best.

We would like to thank you and your staff for your help in making our weekend success. Everyone enjoyed the afternoon very much.

I just wanted to drop you an email to say thank you so much for everything you did towards making mine and Malcolm's wedding a success. Everyone had a lovely time and said that they felt utterly looked after and commented on how friendly everyone was. In the lead up to the day I was totally reassured when talking to you and Catharine, that everything would be looked after and not forgotten. Thank you for that - it kept me nice and calm! Malcolm and I had an amazing day - the food was stunning, the service was amazing and it all ran smoothly. So thank you to everyone for making such a wonderful day.
Alison and Malcolm S
