Getting the old-fashioned garden ready was a dress rehearsal for the couple who will host their daughter’s wedding on the grounds in January. Rotary sold about 1150 tickets for the one-day event while the Passion for Art over two days – featuring 13 artists – was also a success according to organisers.
