What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it is still served fresh. At midsummer, it is light in Naphill until about 9:25pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
