Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads who lend a hand. My Dad is one of those, and is always interested in what we do, and how we do it. And sometimes, he’s even on-site giving us a hand 🔨

No interview.
No salary.
No notice period accepted.
No say in the matter 😅

Every now and then he’s on-site and on the tools - usually involving rain, heavy lifting, and the promise that it’ll “only take a couple of hours”. 📋

Thanks for always stepping in and stepping up. Appreciate all you do Pa. Love you! 🥰

She’s tall, blonde, and very good at cocktail hour ✨

Our Wooden Bentwood Bar Chairs in Oak pair beautifully with our Oak Bentwood Dining Chairs, which makes them an easy yes for cocktail style weddings, events and celebrations.

Same warm oak tone, same timeless shape, just ready to perch at a bar leaner with a ch*****ne in hand.

Perfect for creating height, flow and those casual little “come sit with us” moments your guests will actually use.

Some venues are pretty. Ōhinetahi Gardens has main character energy ✨

Tucked just over the hill from Christchurch, it’s one of those wedding venues that feels like a little world of its own. Gardens, views, history, quiet corners, big moments. She’s got range.

But this is not really the kind of venue you wing and hope for the best.

The magic is in how the day moves. Guest arrival, ceremony timing, cocktail hour, dinner flow, furniture placement, weather shifts, golden hour moments, the little “where is everyone going next?” details that make the difference between beautiful and beautifully seamless.

We know Ōhinetahi well, and we know how to work with the space so it feels considered, comfortable and completely yours.

We’ve pulled together a full Ōhinetahi Gardens venue highlight on the blog, including what to think about, what hire pieces work beautifully, and how to make the most of this gorgeous Christchurch wedding venue.

She’s blonde, timeless, and gets along with everyone ✨

Our Oak-look Bentwood Dining Chairs are the kind of hire piece that make sense almost anywhere. Weddings, events, long lunches, celebrations, the “we just need chairs that look goof anywhere” moments.

Warm oak tone, classic Bentwood shape, and easy to style without making everything feel too formal. Add on white seat cushions for extra comfort.

Chair hire in Christchurch, but with taste - obviously 🤍

Ōhinetahi Gardens really knows how to show off ✨

Leticia and Rory’s wedding was the kind of day that makes you slow down for a second.

A tucked-away garden ceremony, cocktails in the sunshine, a long lunch under scalloped umbrellas, soft linens, lemon details, rattan chairs and the most relaxed, generous energy from start to finish.

It was thoughtful, personal and beautifully un-rushed. We adored being part of their beautiful day - what a privilege ! Bringing together styling, hire, setup, packdown and month-of coordination so the day could feel as seamless as it looked.

And yes, the golden-hour first dance outside? Main character moment 🤍

The full wedding is now up on the blog if you want the whole dreamy garden party breakdown ✨ 👉🏼 https://www.thelittlehirecompany.co.nz/blog/wedding-planning-italian-alfresco-wedding-at-ohinetahi-gardens
