The day
Saturday, the twelfth of September.
The order of the day, from the first glass to the last song. Times are a gentle guide — come as you can, stay as long as you like.
3:00
ArrivalVilla Aurelia gates
The gates open. Find a glass of something cold and a seat in the shade.
3:30

Please be seated by twenty past. It will be short, and possibly a little tearful.
4:15
Celebration drinksThe stone terrace
Aperitivo, canapés and the golden hour, while we sign the papers and compose ourselves.
6:00
DinnerThe walled garden
One long table beneath the oaks. Toasts between courses; second helpings encouraged.
9:00
DancingThe old barn
The band starts, the shoes come off, and we stay until late.
12:00
CarriagesThe front drive
One last song, then cars to carry you back. Breakfast is on your own conscience.
Getting thereThe house, the parking, the way in.
