This property is a labor of love, beginning with its purchase and creation in 2015 when all three girls were getting married. Every aspect of this rustic-luxe venue is steeped in a love of family, and since it hosts 320-400 guests, everyone can attend.
Every aspect of your fairy-tale romance can be captured here, from your engagement party to the ceremony and reception. Sparrow Beginnings has a wide range of spots on site where you and your loved ones can spread your wings. Luxurious rooms are available for you and your partner to get ready in while guests mingle in the expansive climate-controlled barn or across rolling lawns. A stunning staircase and north-facing windows provide a gorgeous spot to take pictures. Chairs, tables, aisle markers, audio equipment, and even elegant centerpieces can all be provided, as well as setup and cleanup. There is both an indoor and outdoor PA system and projection screens for those who’d like to include a slideshow in the festivities. A stage can provide an ideal space for your DJ or band, and a state-of-the-art kitchen is available for your caterer of choice.

e is plenty of parking. They also keep the indoors at a comfortable temperature during Oklahoma July haha. Our favorite thing to do before the ceremony was to peek through the windows from the bridal suites to get a look at everyone coming in and to see the layout from above. The suites were comfortable and the groom side even has games and entertainment centers. The staff was very kind and considerate of our requests to make our special day just how we envisioned!

o respond and very helpful. They let me come meet with them personally, answered my emails and let me look at the venue anytime I needed. We were also able to rent decorations from their decoration barn which was super helpful and a money saver. I would recommend this venue to any bride or event coordinator.
Everyone was so kind and easy to talk to. We opted to pay the $150 rental fee to use the decorations they have on site. It made things really easy on us because I didn’t have to bu...

our engagement pictures on the Sparrow grounds and visit multiple other times during the planning process to finalize anything we needed for our wedding day. I really liked how they allowed you to bring in any vendors you wanted on your special day.

was wonderful! She let me come out to view the venue and decor as many times as i wanted to! She emailed back to my questions almost immediately and was so great on the day of my wedding. She even let me in 30 minutes before the venue opened. The owners of the sparrow are genuine people and a great family who are so much fun to work with. My vendors all came together and made my wedding more than i could have ever asked for. I am so happy i chose Sparrow!

our guests will thank you for. Also, the bathrooms available for the guests are very nice with many stalls, so no lines. That never would have been something I considered til I heard guests comment on it. A BEAUTIFUL outdoor area with so many options for large and small ceremonies. Numerous places for captivating photos. The dressing rooms are spacious and a lovely, comfortable place for getting ready, also very cute for photos. The balcony was incredible, and the wall dividing the couples balcony makes for a sweet photo! They had one issue that I knew about from reading reviews (the venue creating a loud echo with sound systems) but from updates on their social pages, I know they're working to fix that. BUT MORE THAN ANYTHING, the ladies running it are the sweetest! I run into them from time to time and, 6 months following my wedding, they still remember my name and are so sweet. They were very accommodating during the whole process. THIS VENUE IS PERFECT FOR EVERYTHING YOU COULD WANT. Please consider it for your event because Sparrow will not disappoint!
beautiful place to have a wedding!
The Sparrow is the most beautiful venue that we looked at. I was so in love! However; the couple that run the venue are very young, and still are getting on their feet, so it seems...
. The woman tried to make multiple changes during the process. They weren't small changes either. They tried telling us we can't get married outside (10 days before the wedding). After confirming we can use whoever for the bartender, they came back a couple months after we hired/paid for them and said we had to use someone they had in mind. I know most couples were told to buy insurance, which is VERY expensive, even after they signed their agreements. I didn't hire a wedding planner, so the stress they put on the bride almost wasn't worth it.
Sparrow goes above and beyond to make sure your big day runs smooth! As a bride, they made me feel special.
Sparrow has many perks including offering a wide variety of decor to us...
e at no extra charge. From staff to the venue itself is incomparable. I would recommend this venue for any occasion!
Great team to work with and gorgeous space! A few issues with the sound system, but it's a new venue so they will work that out shortly. Overall, great!!
I absolutely LOVED having my wedding at Sparrow. Not only were the managers super helpful and fair in their pricing, they really did care about me and how my wedding went. It goes ...
without saying but the venue is absolutely stunning and is basically every wedding vendors dream to work a wedding at - lighting, kitchen, bridal suite, stage, etc - Sparrow has it all!! I would recommend it to anyone.
Beautiful place. Great location away from the city. Kind of far but so worth it. Owners are new but they work well. Great for taking pictures (beautiful light). Had a great time.
