We are based in CA so needed a local expert to find a first class caterer (Attitude on Food), execute on our floral design wishes (Magnolia), work with our incredible venue (Willow Creek Glass Chapel), find a local vendor to aisle ready steam the wedding dress (Omaha Lace Cleaners) and provide suggestions for activities for the weekend. Jessica exceeded our expectations, and I would happily recommend her and Maggie for your special day too.

The flatbread was decent, but the real star (not pictured) is the spinach artichoke dip in the bread bowl. Easily the best thing on the menu--huge portion and perfect for sharing. The salmon and risotto were also standouts. We finished with the banana bread pudding, which was the perfect ending--just sweet enough. If you're celebrating something or just want to treat yourself, this place makes the night feel like an event. I'd absolutely go back.

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!
