I would give 0 stars if I could
I booked Lily & Lime for my October 2025 wedding. Eight months later, all I have to show for it are poor-quality photos and no satisfactory wedding video. Lily & Lime had strong reviews and impressive portfolios, but our experience was far from what was promised. After booking, communication was minimal. A few months before the wedding, I was informed that my selected lead photographer was no longer available and had to choose someone else. After that, communication remained limited until the week of the wedding. The photography was extremely disappointing. Many group photos lacked direction and composition, resulting in cluttered, unflattering images. Numerous photos include the videographer in the background, people on the ends of group shots are blurry, and several images cut off either my face or my husband’s. I specifically requested photos of our décor, candid guest moments, and photos with guests, yet very few were delivered. Throughout the day, the photographer repeatedly asked, “Are we done?” I hired a professional to guide poses and capture important moments—not to require constant instruction. The videographer captured usable footage, but the editing has been a major disappointment. Important moments are missing, audio contains static, music selections ignored our requests, and the final videos feel rushed and unprofessional. Despite providing detailed revision notes and receiving three revisions, many of the same issues remain. I also had to pay extra for the raw footage. After eight hours of filming, the final video is only about 50 minutes long and still fails to adequately capture our wedding day. Wedding photos and videos should preserve lifelong memories. Instead, this experience has been frustrating, disappointing, and exhausting. After eight months, multiple revisions, and additional expenses, I still do not have a wedding video I am happy with. I cannot recommend Lily & Lime based on my experience.

Research your photographer
While th automated emails from Lily and Lime prior to our event were efficient, the actual communication with our assigned photographer was very limited. Additionally, their post-event customer service was lacking and seemed evasive when we tried to follow up about missing photos. The quality of their work seems to depend entirely on which photographer is assigned to your wedding. Unfortunately, in our case, the photographer lost over half of the pictures from our special day. In order to receive a partial refund, Lily and Lime sent us a non-disclosure agreement that included a non-disparagement clause, meaning we would not be allowed to discuss or leave negative reviews about our experience. We involved our state’s Attorney General in the matter to obtain a fair resolution. Overall, the value we received from Lily and Lime was quite poor, and I would not recommend their services to other couples planning their wedding.

Lily & Lime were simply amazing, their professionalism, their care regarding our timeline, timely communication, and their photographer and videographer were outstanding, very thoughtful, and they definitely went the extra mile, probably went extra 10 miles, they were a big amazing part of making our wedding wonderful.

Amazing photographers!!
We couldn't have been happier with our experience with Lily and Lime! Chris and Rebecca were an incredible team—professional, yet so fun to be around, making the whole process effortless. Chris’s familiarity with our venue, Lucky Spur Ranch, was a huge plus, and they both had an amazing eye for capturing the perfect shots. Our pictures came back stunning, and we would recommend them to anyone looking for talented, easygoing, and truly fantastic wedding photographers!

Barely got any photos of bride and groom at
Very displeased with my photographer. I also selected “no title” for the album cover that was part of our package but they made one up and put it on there anyway
Lily and Lime•Mar 30, 2026Hi Amanda, thank you for sharing this feedback. I’m really sorry to hear about your experience, especially since those details matter so much. The album cover should have followed your selection, and I understand how frustrating it is to see something different than what you chose. I’d really like to help make this right for you. Please reach out to our support team so we can review your album and correct this as quickly as possible.
