About
Hi! I’m Cara, owner of Walnut Studio Events — a boutique wedding planning studio based in Omaha, Nebraska and traveling nationwide. I specialize in helping you feel calm, organized, and fully present on your wedding day — not managing logistics or putting out fires. With 10+ years in the service industry, I handle timeline creation, vendor communication, layout planning, and full day-of coordination so everything runs exactly as it should. Whether you’re planning a large wedding or something more intimate, I bring a thoughtful, hospitality-driven approach and work closely with trusted vendors to bring your vision to life. If you’re looking for someone who can step in, take things off your plate, and make the day feel effortless, I’d love to connect.

Walnut Studio was amazing for our wedding - all the details and vendors came together and we didnt have to do much! It was perfect! We got to just enjoy the day without worrying if things were going to be taken care of. Cara was incredible, she worried about the deets and looped us in when needed. Stayed within budget and was there the day of to make sure it came together the way we wanted. It was such a relief, wished we hired her from the start. 10/10

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!

We had a great experience working with Cara. She was incredibly responsive, highly organized, and brought thoughtful, creative ideas that truly elevated our event. She made the process seamless from start to finish, and we loved collaborating with her. Would absolutely recommend and look forward to working together again!

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!

Details: 11 - 25 guests • Wedding reception • Low key / casual • Private residence • Beer • Liquor / mixed drinks • Wine • Non-alcoholic beverages • I'm flexible • I'm flexible • Setup / cleanup
