Set date for 'datepicker' doesn't work - jQueryUI - jquery-ui

Question

I'm trying to set up a calendar with a specific marked day (fix day). For example 30-04-2015 in the calendar where will not possible select another month or day, only show that specify day.
Similar to the image:

I'm using jQueryIU to do it but I can not get it.
Here it's my code:
http://jsfiddle.net/andresgl/mr7aokod/3/
HTML
jQuery
(function($) {
$(document).ready(function(){
$( "#datepicker" ).datepicker(
{
beforeShowDay: $.datepicker.noWeekends,
hideIfNoPrevNext: false,
maxDate: "+1m",
minDate: "+1m",
}
);
});
})(jQuery);
(function($) {
$(document).ready(function(){
$( "#datepicker" ).datepicker( "setDate", "04/30/2014" );
});
})(jQuery);
The problem is if I not declare this parameters:
{
beforeShowDay: $.datepicker.noWeekends,
hideIfNoPrevNext: false,
maxDate: "+1m",
minDate: "+1m",
}
The setDate works, but the parameters doesn't work and If I declare the parameters, the setDate doesn't work.
$( "#datepicker" ).datepicker( "setDate", "04/30/2014" );
Can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong or where is the mistake and how can I fix it, please?
BTW: I was following the datepicker documentation: api.jqueryui.com/datepicker/#method-setDate
Thank you!

Not sure if this will suit your needs but you and can set min and max as dates as well. Something like:
$(function() {
$(document).ready(function(){
$( "#datepicker" ).datepicker(
{
beforeShowDay: $.datepicker.noWeekends,
defaultDate: new Date(2015, 04, 04),
maxDate: new Date(2015, 04, 04),
minDate: new Date(2015, 04, 04),
hideIfNoPrevNext: false
}
);
});
});

Alternatively, you need to set the date before you limit the range:
$( "#datepicker" ).datepicker( "setDate", "04/05/2015" ).datepicker(
{
beforeShowDay: $.datepicker.noWeekends,
/*defaultDate: new Date(2015, 04, 04),*/
maxDate: new Date(2015, 05, 04),
minDate: new Date(2015, 05, 04),
hideIfNoPrevNext: false
}
);
