Earlier this month while a dear friend and her husband were visiting the States from Denmark, her parents hosted a Jack & Jill baby shower (they’re expecting a boy this fall). While I’m not usually one to jump up and down with pure joy over baby shower games, when my friend’s mom asked me to put something together, I said “Of course!” Having attended […]
Take one non-profit board of directors. Add two parts Powerpoint presentation. Mix with a full afternoon of meetings. This equals a much-needed dinner to relax and reconnect. The event was beautifully effortless yet elegant thanks to Olive Crest PNW‘s request for a relaxed atmosphere. The dinner, so to speak, was to run on Island Time. The venue, a private home overlooking the […]
Wishing to respect the very cliché yet wise advice “what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas,” I did my best to take very few pictures while celebrating a friend’s upcoming nuptials during a three-day weekend with a group of lovely and amazing ladies. Our group travelled from three very different areas – Seattle, the Bay Area and Michigan – and most of us flew in Thursday afternoon and we all […]
In mid-May, Sparrow Soirées participated at the Seattle Metropolitan Chamber’s B2B Tradeshow and raffled two office break parties. Yesterday one of the winners, Meagan, redeemed her prize for a colleague’s farewell party. One of the cool elements of event planning, along with the opportunity to meet great people, is seeing and working within various venues and office spaces. Yesterday’s party was […]
The French Soirée was on Sunday! I was thrilled all went well. All the more excited when the sun peeked out so we could enjoy coffee and dessert on the patio after gifts were opened. Reason for the occasion? A milestone in need of celebration! My dear friend, Emily, and her husband are expecting their first child, a girl, later this summer. My notes… I kept […]
The French-themed Soirée is almost here. The RSVPs are rolling in. The menu is coming together. The creative process is in overdrive. A few pictures of my latest inspirations. I cannot get enough of Nichole Robertson’s Paris in Color. As the cool kids say, “Adorbs.” Again, the amazing Nichole Robertson.Break out the ice trays. This is WILL be accomplished. […]
Yesterday Sparrow Soirées made its official debut at the Seattle Metro Chamber’s B2B Tradeshow. We enjoyed meeting and talking with many people representing their businesses, programs and schools. We had a “menu card” serving as a visual elevator pitch: We held a business card drawing for a hosted mid-morning coffee break or afternoon stretch party. The winner (drum […]
Summer is almost here, which means busy schedules of large community-focused events like lunchtime concerts, 5k runs, and neighborhood festivals. This also creates a need for volunteers and event marketing. Why not check both off your list while increasing the visibility of your event sponsors and their dedication to the community? There’s a good chance your sponsorship agreement already outlines their […]
Last week while preparing for Sparrow’s debut at the Chamber’s upcoming B2B tradeshow and wrapping up some design elements with our graphic guru, I worked on a few details of a private event for a wonderful friend. No matter the event, no matter the occasion, no matter the guests – clients, friends or family – everything needs to be 100% perfect, even the smallest of details. I wouldn’t have […]
