Tin Sparrow Events

We cannot say enough amazing things about GariAnn and the Tin Sparrow team!! Using their services will help guarantee that you'll have the best day of your life! GariAnn went above and beyond every step of the way as we planned our wedding through COVID. She helped us navigate a late-stage venue change. She expertly handled venue and vendor curveballs in the month and days leading up to our wedding, along with any and all hiccups we encountered on the day of the event. She met with us regularly to answer any questions we had along the way. We always looked forward to our meetings because they were so fun and informative. Tin Sparrow also helps you with the design elements of your wedding which is a major bonus! They have so many items to rent and to utilize to help create the perfect "look" for your big day. The tablescapes GariAnn designed were beautiful. Weddings can be so stressful and overwhelming, but thanks to GariAnn, we were able to focus on appreciating our day and living in the moment. We had a wedding and a party that exceeded all our hopes and dreams! More than anything, we feel like we made a friend for life.

So glad that we hired Tin Sparrow for our wedding! Gari Ann was there for us every step of the way helping and assuring us that everything was moving and on track - even through a major venue change! Not only did she alleviate a lot of stress during the wedding planning process, she has an incredible eye for design! Our wedding went off without a hitch (that we were aware of at least!) and turned out absolutely beautiful. We wouldn't change a thing about it!

As I’m sure many can attest to, 2020 has been a challenging year full of ups and downs. Like many brides out there, I was a 2020 bride trying to navigate planning a wedding amidst a global pandemic. I can wholeheartedly say, my wedding day would not have been possible without Tin Sparrow Events and the kind, compassionate, and brilliant Gariann. My husband and I (still exciting to say I have a husband !) are beyond grateful for everything that Gariann did for us,. Gariann was there for us every step of the way from the original planning to our wedding day. Her knowledge and expertise helped make our lives so much easier and was what allowed us to have our special day even when things kept changing due to COVID. Gariann was always there to answer texts and emails no matter what time or day, and bless her heart, there were several panicked calls and texts from me throughout the wedding planning process. Gariann was there for my husband and I as we quite literally planned and re-planned our wedding 4 times due to COVID 19. She was always patient and considerate about how we were feeling and what we were going through. Living in a different state than where we were getting married made it that much more challenging, but Gariann was always willing to meet via Zoom and always had a plan in place so we were never left wondering what to do next. She is extremely organized and driven, so I was never worried that something she said she was doing wouldn’t get done. During our wedding Gariann and Anna were there bright and early to make sure everything went off without a hitch. Our entire wedding day flowed so smoothly, and my husband and I were able to truly live in the moment , while they took care of everything down to the smallest detail. Our wedding was beautiful, sentimental, loving, fun and it’s a day I’ll never forget thanks to Tin Sparrow Events. If you’re getting married, especially in today’s time, you NEED a wedding planner, and I will preach it to anyone who listens that you NEED to hire Gariann with Tin Sparrow Events! 😊 Trust me when I say, you will have the wedding of your dreams and Gariann will be one of the greatest reasons behind that happening.

Tin sparrow is hands down the best that washington state has to offer for wedding planning. GariAnn is a daughter, wife, mother and a wedding planner and sometimes a counselor. Her soul captured my heart within seconds of meeting her!! I came home to my fiancé and said my heart tells me she’s the one. She listened to all my crazy thoughts, and she never judge me. We went through this big whirlwind that had many ups and downs as the world was hit was Covid-19, but she never left my side. She assured me that no matter what I wanted to do during this time if it meant postponing the wedding or eloping and have a reception later that she was willing to change all things to make it happen. She told me covid can’t stop love,and guess what it didn’t I’m on cloud 9 with my husband. I spent a whole year and a few months with GariAnn and within that time I have gained a beautiful friendship. Her passion and eye for design is on point, like “kick ass”. This lady truly made our day magical she turned my color palette and all my ideas into a stunning wedding day!

With love Jessica and Nic Newhouse

Tin Sparrow Events was hands down the best money we ever spent. Gariann from day 1 made this experience about Chris & I and always focused on what truly mattered...our love. Despite all the twists and turns 2020 threw our way, she stood by our side and guided us through a messy unexpected situation (covid) with grace and compassion. We will always be so thankful for her. She never gave up on us even though we were quite literally on the biggest rollercoaster. I’m at a loss for words when trying to describe just how much she means to us and how amazing she is. She will always make you feel valid in your decisions and guide you through all your wedding planning with ease. She slays at her job and has an eye for design that cannot he matched. Our wedding was out of our wildest dreams and we owe it all to Gariann. Do yourself a favor and hire her! You will not regret it!

GariAnn and her team at Tin Sparrow are absolutely amazing! GariAnn was fantastic to work with. She is super professional and experienced. She was amazing at understanding what I was looking for, even when I couldn't articulate specifics! On planning – it was really helpful to have her walk us through what needed to be done and when, point out some things we may be misisng, share vendor information and recommendations, and overall reassure us to keep us on track. GariAnn also uses some really helpful online tools that she shares with clients that were great to have for the wedding, and that I might use again! On design – GariAnn and her team did an AMAZING job at this – our wedding was beautiful and exactly what I was hoping for. We rented linens and candles from her, combined with some greens from the florist, and her team set up the event. Very worthwhile – she really listened to what I wanted and took it up a level. She thought through details so I didn't have to! Finally, on day of coordination – I 100% recommend Tin Sparrow. They are so experienced, and so familiar with all the vendors and work styles in the area. She organized flow, came up with a schedule, kept things moving, and made adjustments seamlessly during the event – everything went really smoothly and we really appreciated how much work that takes! Thanks!

I would recommend Brittney, GariAnn and her team hands down!!!! They are all so helpful and amazing to work with. I worked with both Brittney and GariAnn and they executed and prepared my wedding exactly as I had imagined. I pictured our perfect day over and over again, and they perfected my vision. Brittney and GariAnn have so many wonderful decorations that not only helped me save money on buying them, but they fit perfect with what I envisioned. On our big day, I was able to relax and be in the moment, knowing that the TS team was preparing everything perfectly!!! I am beyond grateful for everything they did for us and am so happy I chose to work with Brittney, GariAnn and her team.

I can not recommend GariAnn and the Tin Sparrow team enough! They helped plan and coordinate my dream wedding. GariAnn was able to relieve all of the stress of planning a wedding and really listens to her clients. With her help I was able to have a dream team of vendors without breaking my budget! The day of coordination is an absolute must for any bride!! I was able to relax the day of my wedding and really enjoy the whole process without being stressed about who needed to be where at what times! She went above and beyond for me and my husband to be sure that our wedding day was exactly what we wanted, I can’t thank her and the TinSparrow team enough!!

I cannot express enough how grateful I am that we brought GariAnn on board as our wedding planner. She is a gem and was probably one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire wedding planning process. GariAnn provided guidance on what decisions needed to be made and when, provided suggestions on vendors as well as provided a sounding board for ideas, our vows and pretty much anything else we needed. She was professional, organized and always was there to keep us on target with our budget while ensuring that our wedding was everything we envisioned. The day of the wedding, GariAnn and the Tin Sparrow Team were amazing. She had everything set up beautifully and was on point when it came to keeping everybody on schedule and where they needed to be when they needed to be there. Her and her team made sure everything went without a hitch and if there were any issues, she took care of them. My husband and I enjoyed our meetings with GariAnn immensely as she made us feel at completely at ease with the planning process. Our wedding was truly the wedding of our dreams due to her and her team.
