I am planning to see A Longwood Christmas with my future fiancé. Actually, I am planning to propose at this beautiful venue! I see that it says lights come on at 12 pm and every 15 minutes after that but don’t understand what this means. Please help! I am coming from 2 hours away and want to make this visit as memorable as possible and that includes seeing the exhibits during the day but also want to experience all the beautiful lights.
