Cossars Wineshed
29 Cossars Road · Tai Tapu · Christchurch 7672
Where to stay
Tai Tapu & Lincoln
5–10 min from the venueQuieter country towns near the venue - a scattering of B&Bs and cottages if you’d rather wake up out among the vines.
Near the airport
30 min from the venueHandy for a late arrival or early flight, with several airport hotels nearby. It is less convenient for the city, and you will still need to arrange transport to Cossars.
Dress Code
Semi‑formal/Rare examples of us dressed up in suitable attire.
No need for black tie or tuxedos, but nothing too casual. Beyond that we really don’t mind: a blazer and chinos is just as welcome as a dress, just as long as you feel sharp.
Keep in mind that the venue has grass and gravel, so we recommend flats or block heels rather than stilettos. You may also want to bring a layer for the evening once it cools after sunset.

Frequently asked questions
Your presence is the best gift we could ask for.
However, if you’d like to give a gift, we’re saving for our honeymoon in Japan after the wedding. A contribution towards it would be greatly appreciated.
We will have a wishing well at the venue if you’d like to give us a card on the day; otherwise, our bank info is below.
