Little Sparrow Events

Early Zoom calls with new bride Chloé this morning! 11am french time! So early I almost forgot my mother tongue! But these calls are the my favorite part: this is where the magic begins.

With our full planning brides, the first step is always understanding the vision: what the day should feel like, how they want their guests to experience it, and what moments they’ll remember forever. From there, we translate everything into colors, textures, lighting, and vibes.

The moodboard is the first tangible result of that conversation, a peek into the world we’re creating together, today, a peak in Chloé’s world!

She is all about vibe and tradition, her vision is bohemian romantic à la Française: soft neutrals, muted pastels, pops of terracotta & mustard, linens, silk, wildflowers, and warm golden light. Cozy, intimate, and a touch of whimsical exactly how she wants her guests to feel.

This is what full planning looks like: we start with the dream, then plan every detail around it, from the first moodboard to the final send-off.

Okay, so Linnea and Matt got married at Meson Sabika a few months ago and… can we talk about how stunning this day was? Like, chic but not try-hard, elegant but not stuffy, and the food… let’s just say I briefly considered sneaking in the kitchen to steal a Datiles or two lol!

Linnea’s vision? Basically Pinterest but in real life. Every little detail came together so perfectly!

Also, yes, I’ve been ghosting Instagram. Real life happened: helping amazing couples, growing internationally (hi France), and living the beautiful season that is 2025.

So here I am, back on the ‘gram pretending I’m consistent. But honestly, posting is hard when you’re busy creating fabulous.

Okay, yes… I ghosted you again. But in my defense, between running a wedding business, chasing a toddler, and convincing myself that cold coffee is a personality trait, Instagram didn’t make the cut.

Now, let’s talk about Lorewell & Michael’s wedding because WOW! A full mansion, garden-chic decor, elegance everywhere… just a dreamy from start to finish!

Meanwhile, my own living room looks like Paw Patrol opened a franchise there 🤦🏻‍♀️

My amazing team pulled off this day flawlessly, Lorewell’s softness carried through everything, and the whole vibe was so calm and elegant you’d think weddings plan themselves. (Spoiler: they don’t. My team just makes it look that way while probably pulling safety pins from no where hair like wedding-day ninjas.)

And then there’s Kayleen Nyshell, their photographer. Honestly, she’s so good it’s borderline rude. These photos are so flawless, you guys please keep making us work together!!! 😭

Gabrielle & Michael’s wedding lives rent-free in my head…

From their timeless style to the actual dream team of vendors, every little detail was pure perfection. I’m still not over the fact that I don’t get to have weekly (ok… daily) wedding chats with Gabrielle, one of the sweetest, most easygoing brides a planner could ever dream of. You just click with some people, ya know?

And don’t even get me started on the photos. Like HELLO???
Working with Aspen Avenue was a true pinch-me moment, they were on my dream list for forever and somehow the stars aligned for this one. The way they captured Gabrielle & Michael who look like they stepped out of Marie Claire… It’s giving high-fashion editorial meets timeless romance. 🤍

I’m beyond grateful to have been a part of this day and to work alongside this all-star crew of vendors who brought their A-game and then some.

Major love to:

Still emotionally attached to this day.

Plot twist: I worked a full year of gorgeous weddings in 2023… and posted almost none of them. 🫣
Call it ✨mystery marketing✨ or just a season of life… but we’re back, catching up (wildly out of order), and kicking things off with something very worth the wait: Kathia & Andrew’s wedding is PUBLISHED in Chicago Style Weddings!

These two tied the knot at the stunning historic Armor House in Lake Forest, and their celebration? A colorful, elegant, joy-filled masterpiece. Think bold reds, sunshine yellows, gorgeous blues, crisp whites, and lush greens, all working together in a palette as vibrant and graceful as these lovebirds. Oh, and the dancefloor? Legendary!

Grateful for this beautiful feature and even more grateful for the dream team that brought it to life:

Let’s hear it for Kathia & Andrew and their radiant celebration that’s now shining in print!

More to come (totally not in order of course!)

Just passing through your feed with a little Throwback Thursday (are we still doing that?) but Sarah & Rachel’s wedding at the stunning Lehmann Mansion deserved a moment. We do love a good mansion affair, and this one had all the right pieces: joy, elegance, and a wildly lovely couple who made the whole planning process a true pleasure.

Every meeting with them felt light, easy, and full of excitement—they brought the kind of energy that reminds us why we love what we do. From their giddy “yes!” moments to the effortlessly smooth celebration, it was clear these two were made for each other.

Here’s to the kind of love that makes planning feel like a privilege.
Already married? Relive your day in the comments. Planning? Come say hi—we’re here for the pretty and the practical.

Grateful as always for the incredible vendor team:

POV: I disappeared from IG last year but came back like I never left 👀

This is my third post in just a few weeks (I know… who is she?!) and we’re just going to ride this momentum, okay? Because there’s so much beauty to catch up on—starting with this gem of a review from Ashley & Ethan!

Their day was pure joy, and getting to know them was even better. Sweet, easygoing, and a true pleasure to celebrate with. More from their wedding will eventually make its way to the feed (don’t rush me 😂), but for now, let’s soak in the love.

Still not over Kayla & Joshua’s magical day at The Crawford 💫 These two were absolutely glowing—and not just from that newlywed joy (though there was plenty of that too)! The love between them was so strong you could feel it—like, goosebumps level love. 🥹

From their sweet-as-can-be wedding party to their emotional vows and all the happy tears in between, it was one of those weddings where every single guest felt it. Like truly, love in the air, in the hugs, in the speeches… everywhere. 💕✨

Also… shoutout to the dream team of vendors who made the day so seamless, stunning, and full of good vibes, 10/10 across the board ⬇️

Oh and guess what? That’s two posts this month from me 🙈 who even am I??

Okay okay… so this was supposed to be a but let’s just call it a because your girl is terrible at posting on time. 😅 (Working on it… kinda… maybe… we’ll see how long this “new me” lasts. 🙃)

But honestly, Danielle & Justin’s May 10th wedding at was way too stunning not to share—even if I’m fashionably late. These two looked straight out of a Vogue spread 😍✨ — effortlessly chic, totally in love, and surrounded by the dreamiest whimsical garden vibes. The mansion decor? Timeless. The vibes? Immaculate. The tapas? Chef’s kiss. 💃🕺

Danielle + Justin, thank you for letting me be a small part of your magical day. Can we do it all over again? 💫💐

Hey Instagram, remember me? 🙋‍♀️ I know, I know – I promised I was back, then went quiet again (classic, right?). Wedding season took over, but now that things are settling down, we’re diving into exciting stuff like upcoming vendor shows and meeting with all our amazing couples to plan their big days! 💍

Oh, and here’s the fun part – we’ve made some awesome changes behind the scenes to better serve our couples, including a fresh new look for our logo! I was going to wait until January to share, but why wait? 🎉

Stay tuned for Regan & Adam’s wedding reel – coming soon! ✨
