Jessica exceeded our expectations, and I would happily recommend her and Maggie for your special day too.

I stumbled across this sweet little place . If you blink, you'll miss it. It's right on the corner…read moreof South Main Street. I popped in for a little something to eat.. it's all kinds of sweet little gem, in a town that is trying to re-do its self. Sat at a table to order, prompt and friendly staff. Ordered the Statesmen- on a croissant- came with an interesting side salad and a cup of coffee. $13 I think is what I paid. Worth every penny - Sandwich was full of flavor- or the chicken salad was. The croissant wasn't anything special, and the side salad aka dessert was something I've never had before- apples, grapes, nuts and snickers with a whip of some sort. How fun and silly, plus the coffee was a perfect cup of good old coffee. I'd recommend this quaint little spot- sit and just absorb all the nuance.

Limelight Expressions was the best decision we made for our wedding! My husband and I knew early on…read morethat we wanted a day-of-coordinator to help our wedding day run smoothly. After our initial consultation with Kimmylea, we decided to go with the Something Blue package since we were early on in the planning process. With this package we planned alongside Kimmylea and got the day-of coordination. She helped us every step of the way keeping us on track with booking vendors and even recommending vendors as well. Kimmylea was so easy to get into contact with. She always responded in a timely manner and we had several meetings along the way as well which helped us feel prepared. The wedding day was stress-free for my husband and I and our whole family. Kimmylea and Beau set up everything and tore down which was so nice to not have our families worry about. At the end of the night I found out our venue's security guard never showed up and they wouldn't be able to serve alcohol without one. Luckily Beau was able to fill that role due to his occupation. I'm not sure what would have happened if Kimmylea and Beau weren't there, but I'm glad I'll never have to find out. Kimmylea also stepped up when I was feeling uneasy about a last minute DJ switch. She contacted the owner and helped reassure me that everything would be great. If you are looking for a wedding or any type of event planner, look no further. Limelight Expressions will go above and beyond to make your day perfect and stress free!

I worked with Fairytale Omaha for quite a few years, and it was always a truly magical experience…read more Now I'm a mom myself and I get to watch my daughter interact with princesses and it's truly a whole new level of magic!! We went to a ticketed event, Story Time with Princess Beauty, and it was so much fun for my toddler and for me! Dress up for the kids was encouraged, they got to make a sweet little bracelet craft (which my daughter still absolutely prizes), and the kids all truly enjoyed the story. Princess Beauty was wonderful and engaging with all the kids, and did a wonderful job spending time with each child, which made it so special! Fairytale Omaha is truly the best Princess company in town, and I'm thrilled to know that I get to share this magic with my daughter. Working with them will always be an excellent idea!

Attended a birthday party here for my daughter's friend. The space is so cute! An absolute dream…read morefor every little girl that loves to dress up. The party started with the girls getting to pick out a dress and shoes of their choice, followed by a full on glam room with vanities to do their makeup, a nail painting station in the middle, and a set up of different kid favorites scented perfumes. Most of the girls chose cotton candy this round. Once all were fully ready they took a picture with the birthday girl and then each individually walked the pink carpet where they held a pose at the end, got their picture taken, and then sat down at the table for a cupcake and tea party. The tea was apple juice or water with chocolate and vanilla cupcakes. Then they would change get the picture of themself that was taken and get to go home! This is such an amazing space and a really fun birthday for your girlie girls!!

The table was set up cute but then she brought out cupcakes in a Sam's container. The kids were excited and one asked for a blue one and she you get what you get, then she wouldn't give them things unless they said please. Always correcting the kids. The dress up was fun and lots to choose from. During makeup the birthday girl wanted her hair sprayed the color and was told abruptly no. Nothing extra was done to make the birthday girl feel special. Several parents stayed and she never offered them a drink. Her son helped but he was really not much better. The fashion show was really fun but the pictures to take home were grainy and cheap. When I mentioned this must be a fun job she said in a grumpy tone- not after you have done several in a row. Maybe time to have someone who wants to do this run it. Not worth $400

Plank has, unfortunately, announced they will be closing at the end of 2025, and while I did enjoy…read moresome of their food offerings, I can't say I'm super surprised. They definitely have/had some pretty high prices compared to other eateries in the area. I'm not sure if that is caused by cost of goods or location or what, but I think that did come into play when a lot of economic hardship is happening all over. Like I mentioned above, I DID like their food, but it definitely had to be a special occasion type of thing, due to the high prices. When we did go, I LOVED the Maryland Crab Dip. It reminded me of my favorite crab dip in the world, at the SweetWater Brewing Company in Atlanta. We also had the Green Bean Almandine that was on special last time we went and that was pretty good, but you have to be a green bean fan, for sure. I decided to try the sushi as my main dish last time, and had the Everything Crunch Maki, which consisted of cooked salmon, jalapeño, and cream cheese. It was pretty good, and had a little hint of spice to it from the jalapeño, which cut the heavy cream aspect. My husband had the Grilled Atlantic Salmon for his entree, and gave me a few bites. It was cooked well and the mushroom risotto below it was very flavorful and filling. The cute nautical ambiance and excellent service were always appreciated, so no complaints there either. I think if they had been in a different area with less expensive rent and cost of goods, I may have visited more often.
