The Day

The chilled one

Arrive from 2pm for welcome drinks on the green. There'll be afternoon tea, light bites, and cake. Proper cups and saucers, the lot. Wander outside for garden games, or just find a sunny spot and catch up with people you haven't seen in ages. Kids are welcome and will probably end up running the show. It's relaxed, it's casual, and nobody needs to wear heels on grass unless they really want to. We wrap up around 6pm to get ready for the evening.

The party one

From 6pm it gets louder. Paella will be served early so grab a bowl while it's hot. A live band kicks off around 7pm. Expect singalongs, questionable dancing, and at least one person who thinks they're the lead singer. Later on a Spotify DJ takes over (your song requests welcome), and there's a free DIY bar so you can mix your own drinks at your own risk. Carriages at 11pm, but we won't judge anyone who refuses to leave.

The messy one

Someone has to deal with the aftermath, and unfortunately that someone is us. If you're local, not too fragile, and fancy earning some serious karma points, we'd love a hand tidying up the hall on Sunday morning. There will almost certainly be half-eaten paella, mysterious stains, and at least one lost shoe. We'll provide coffee and leftover cake as payment. Let us know on your RSVP if you're up for it.
