Hang our norenat your door.

In Japan a noren, the cloth over a shop’s doorway, tells the street a house is open, and the word came to mean a business’s good name. When Oak & Ash hosts at your property, it tells your guests the evening is in good hands. We design, staff and run the hospitality layer that turns a room into a place people come back to.

Who we work with

Hotels & resorts

Fill the patio and the calendar.

Local guests who arrive for an evening and return for dinner, golf and a weekend stay.

Restaurants & lounges

A VIP program, run for you.

Tables booked, deposits taken, guests seated and followed up, without adding to your team’s load.

Destinations

A night visitors talk about.

Hosted evenings and VIP itineraries for visiting groups, conventions, planners and talent.

Brands & sponsors

Presence in the right rooms.

Lounge furnishings, welcome pours and hosted moments placed in front of a curated audience.

IVIP ProgramFor hotels, restaurants and lounges with special events.

We design it. We run it.

A discreet, end-to-end VIP channel that feels natural to the guest and useful to the house. It covers advance booking, deposits and upfront pricing, table placement, arrival, access, direct communication, seating, food orders, service and follow-up.

Presentation stays low-key. More elaborate touches come later, and only when a sponsor supports them.

Included
  • Table plan and seating layout
  • Pricing, minimums and deposits
  • Staffing plan and service standard
  • Booking, guest messages and arrival
  • Sponsor sourcing for furnishings and welcome drinks
  • A report after every night
IISignature SeriesFor properties that want a standing night of their own.

An evening people put in their calendar.

A recurring hosted evening built for your setting, with its own name, its own sound and its own crowd. We invite from our professional and founder networks, host on the night and grow the series toward live performance.

Dinner comes first, so the kitchen fills before the music starts.

Included
  • Concept, name and music direction
  • Invitations to our networks
  • Hosting and introductions on the night
  • DJ booking and a path to live music
  • Reserved-table packages with your team
  • A monthly review together
IIIAudience & MeasurementBuilt on MediumFour (opens in a new tab)’s data practice.

Know who came, and who came back.

Every evening is also research. We separate registrations from arrivals, first visits from returns, and interest from bookings, so you can see what an evening is worth beyond its own night.

Results are confirmed against your own point-of-sale reports. Your guests’ details are used only as agreed.

Included
  • Distinct RSVP and booking links by source
  • Registered versus arrived, new versus returning
  • Interest capture for dining, golf and stays
  • Results confirmed against your POS
  • An agreed window for later bookings
  • Follow-up that turns first visits into second ones
IVDestination ExperiencesFor tourism organizations, meeting planners and conventions.

Give visitors a night they tell people about.

Visitors judge a destination by its evenings as much as its days. We host evenings for conventions and visiting groups, build VIP itineraries for planners, talent and executives, and package dinner, music, overnight stays and golf into one invitation.

MediumFour (opens in a new tab)’s creative team can film and photograph it, so the experience becomes the next campaign.

Included
  • Hosted evenings for groups and conventions
  • VIP itineraries for planners, talent and executives
  • Packaged nights: dinner, music, stay, golf
  • Photo, film and campaign production
  • Visitor data for your reporting
