About Walnut Studio Weddings & Events

Hi! I’m Cara, owner of Walnut Studio Events — a boutique wedding planning and coordination studio based in Omaha, Nebraska and traveling nationwide. Whether you need full-service planning from the very beginning or expert coordination in the final weeks leading up to your wedding, I help couples navigate the process with confidence and enjoy their wedding day without worrying about timelines, logistics, or vendor management. From venue selection and vendor sourcing to design guidance, timeline creation, layout planning, and day-of execution, I provide as much—or as little—support as you need. My approach is calm, organized, and hospitality-driven, ensuring every detail is thoughtfully managed and every decision feels less overwhelming. With over 10 years of experience in service, operations, and event management, I’m known for creating clear plans, solving problems before they become issues, and keeping events running smoothly behind the scenes. My goal is simple: to make the planning process easier and your wedding day feel intentional, and fully focused on celebrating. If you're looking for a planner who can bring structure, guidance, and peace of mind throughout the planning process, lets connect!

Thumbtack customerNov 2025

We were hosting a funeral luncheon at Heafy/Hoffman and had no idea if we would have 100 or 200 people— Care showed up ready to work and was delightful. We had self service for Beer and Wine but she was very busy with mixed drinks - we will definitely ise her again!

Steph was our bartender from NoCo and she was amazing for our lengthy open house event with 70 guests. She was on time, professionally dressed, cheerful, helpful, fun and she made delicious, attractive cocktails. Couldn't have asked for better. Communication with both Cara and Steph prior to event was very good. Doing the add-on pkg for mixers, garnishes, glasses, soft drinks, ice, coolers, etc saved us lots of effort. Steph was a great help to us as hosts and an extra element of fun for guests.

Cara was a great asset to my 60th Birthday party. She stayed in contact with me through the weeks leading up to the party and was on time with all of the supplies she promised. My guests loved all of the drinks and enjoyed Cara as she was patient and cordial even with many people surrounding her bar asking for drinks. I will certainly have Cara bartend at all of my parties!

Me and my guest loved her and will definitely have her back for next event.

We had a wonderful experience! Cara was so responsive, accommodating and friendly! She made the process so easy and took all of the worry out of the bar aspect of our event!

Cara was absolutely fantastic! We hired her for our micro backyard wedding, and we could not have been happier with her services. She offers regular bartending services all the way to bringing the whole bar setup/glassware/so much more, which I highly recommend opting for. She was punctual, responsive, and incredibly professional, and her drinks were amazing. She helped make our day as special as it was!

We hired Cara for a Derby Party at our home, requiring 3 signature cocktails (plus other options) and she nailed it. She was punctual, friendly and made delicious drinks. A true 'trifecta' in bartending and I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Hailey M.May 2024

Cara was WONDERFUL! I would absolutely work with her again! She brought my vision to life and was the perfect extra special touch that our ribbon cutting needed!

Cara was amazing! She personalized the menu to our needs with a great selection of specialty cocktails and mocktails for a family/friends dinner event. My guests loved her creations; unique with fresh ingredients. She was very responsive and accommodating to my many questions via email. She is personable, punctual, and professional. I would happily use her again!

Cara was the perfect addition to our Bachelorette weekend in Denver! We had about twelve people attend her mixology class held at our rental home. She was very attentive to the needs of the group and the preferences of our bride- she even created three different Old Fashioned recipes because that is our bride’s fav cocktail! Our group was a mix of some people wanting to watch and sip and some wanting to get in on the action- Cara accommodated both. As the host, I appreciated Cara’s transparency on pricing, her attentiveness to details, her punctuality and professionalism, and her homemade cocktail shrubs/syrups (yum!). I would definitely recommend Cara to anyone I know in the Denver area for bartending/mixology services.
