I highly recommend Be Creative Catering. Travis and Michelle were great to work with and the food was delicious. Honest, good people you can trust to make sure your event is a success, they most certainly know what they are doing. Excellent staff working for them as well, we were very pleased.

We had our daughter’s outdoor wedding at our home with less than four months to plan and prepare. Luckily, we were referred to Be Creative Catering by our tent company, Advantage Tent and Party Rental. Be Creative provided high quality service from the initial contact to the end of the wedding. Michelle (co-owner) was easy to contact and quick to respond to questions, menus, prices, contracts and changes. Travis (Michelle’s husband and co-owner) handles the menu, the execution of the catering and bar service with a focus on providing the best experience for the bride, groom, family and guests. Michelle and Travis have done thousands of weddings over many years. Their experience and open and honest communication assist the customers to make informed decisions. Their expertise extends beyond just the food. They helped us plan the timing of events during the evening to maximize a wonderful experience for all. Our food was delicious at the tasting and at the wedding. Appetizers, cold drinks and cocktails were passed immediately after the ceremony which were needed with the sunny 90-degree weather! We had a delicious dinner with special accommodations for our vegan guests. The dessert was custom made doughnuts on site with chocolate, caramel, and strawberry sauces. Many guests complimented the food throughout the night. Creative servers and bartenders were professional and friendly at all times. Since the wedding was at our home they provided attention to cleanliness of the area, restrooms, and trash containment. Travis repeatedly assured us that he and his team would take care of the servicing details and encouraged us to enjoy the evening. We were thrilled with the quality of service by Be Creative. What a great value!

Travis and Michelle were absolutely wonderful to work with. They were accommodating and always replied quickly. The staff the day of could not have been better. We received countless compliments on both the food and bar service. We would recommend them to anyone!
From the initial meeting to the meal itself at our daughter’s wedding, our experience with Michelle and the rest of the Be Creative team was flawless. The catering was the one part of the evening that was completely and beautifully handled without any involvement from us. Every step was on schedule, the food was delicious, and the team could not have been more professional and courteous.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Michelle and the staff from Be Creative Catering. From the first phone call to the night of my daughter’s wedding reception Michelle and her staff were very professional and thorough. The food was amazing, and we knew it would be because we did a wonderful private tasting night where we were able to select our favorites. We had so many compliments from the guests. Also, the staff working the night were all wonderful, they were very polite and efficient in all they did. Again, we can’t thank you enough for helping make Lindsay and Foster’s wedding reception so special.
Michelle was a source of guidance on everything related to the catering requirements for the wedding, and having ample experience with the venue, made us feel like guests at our daughter’s wedding. On the wedding date, the team of Brandon, Jennifer, and Jen, set up everything very discretely “behind the curtain”, while the guests were getting seated and during the actual wedding ceremony, which was a few feet away from where they were setting up the buffet. I did not even realize they were already there. Only after the ceremony ended, when I went looking for them, did I realize all the work they have already done! Great job! During the buffet, they were on the top of their games, making sure everything was flowing right, and removing the plates from the tables in a very efficient and undisruptive manner. The food my daughter, and now husband, selected, was the Mexican buffet. Everybody praised it, and many went for seconds. The desserts selected, per Michelle’s recommendation, also received lots of praises: raspberry swirl cheesecake, white and chocolate sheet cake with white icing, cookies, and brownies. Be Creative Catering was a very important factor in the success of our daughter’s wedding. And they really made us feel like guests at the wedding. THANK YOU!!
The food from Be Creative was fantastic!! We really wanted to have great food at our reception, and we were very satisfied. Michelle was SO great to work with too, especially when we had to delay our reception twice due to COVID. 10/10 would recommend!
Could not have been any more pleased with this caterer, the venue, the owners (of The Inn at Oneonta) and staff… Would recommend them to anyone wanting a stress-free event by polished professionals.
I had to plan a rehearsal dinner 200 miles away in an unfamiliar area of Kentucky to me. Michelle and her amazing staff took such good care of me and my long-distance needs. She quickly responded to my emails and phone calls. In choosing the menu, I loved the selection and the variety offered. The food was amazing, and my guests were very complimentary. Her staff was so professional as well as being approachable. I would HIGHLY recommend Be Creative Catering for your event. I hope I get an opportunity to use her again! P.S. Definitely order the Mac and Cheese! It was a huge hit!
I’ve never heard so many people say that this was the best food they’ve had at a wedding ever! The prime rib was hand carved for each guest. The main course sides were salivating, well presented, and served hot & fresh! The cocktail hour hors d’oeuvres were raved about. We were given the opportunity to do a tasting prior to the wedding and received great recommendations. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Be Creative Catering was absolutely delicious! Travis worked with our dietary restrictions and helped us decide what would go best together for our July wedding. I can’t say enough about how helpful Travis was in our planning process. He asks all the questions to help make the night run smoothly! The staff were also extremely kind and accommodating.
Michelle and the team were very attentive and met our every need!
The food at Oneonta is incredible! We had a fall theme and told Travis that we wanted Thanksgiving style food, which he nailed! All of the food tasted amazing and it’s something that I am still receiving compliments about even a month and half after our wedding!
We had our wedding reception catered by Be Creative Catering and couldn’t have been more pleased. The food was delicious. We received many compliments from our guests, too. The wait staff and bartenders were also fantastic. We highly recommend this company!
If you are looking for a 1 stop shop for ANY catered event, Be Creative is exactly who you want!!! I seriously cannot say enough about them!!! Travis and Michelle were so easy to work with, the food was TOP NOTCH, but to top it off, the bartenders and staff were polite and on top of their game!!! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!! Direct quote from Dad, “the bartenders actually knew how to make a drink and the food was fantastic!” As a Bride, it is so good to know that all our guests were well fed and had great service! Thank you SO much! 💙💙
My husband has always had a love-hate relationship with your typical wedding food, but after our tasting with Travis, he was beyond excited for our wedding dinner. Other than Travis being a great guy to talk to and work with, the food was incredible. We had such a tough time narrowing down our menu decision because the options from Be Creative are endless! Everyone was impressed with both the food and service.
Be Creative was absolutely wonderful to work with! Michelle and Travis are awesome, they helped us narrow down the best option for serving for the vibe of our wedding and within our budget and provided amazing service from the first phone call, to the tasting, all the way up to the day of! The food was absolutely amazing, a few weeks later and we still have guests telling us how great the food was (and the leftovers even 3 days later were the best chicken and mashed potatoes I have ever had!). The staff and speed of service at the wedding were amazing as well, one of our best choices in wedding planning was going with Be Creative Catering!
Our wedding was everything! You won’t find better food. Be Creative Catering went above and beyond to make our wedding reception tasty and enjoyable. Our guests raved about the food, especially the mashed potatoes. It was so good, our bridal party came over the following morning for breakfast left-overs. The staff were efficient and worked so hard to meet our needs the entire night. Michelle and Travis were so easy to work with and made all our dreams come true. We were treated like royalty and would recommend Oneonta and Be Creative Catering to all future brides and grooms!
Everyone couldn’t stop talking about the food after our wedding. My MIL who doesn’t even eat salmon loved the pesto salmon. Let’s just say the beef tenderloin was cooked perfectly. Passed hors d’oeuvres were amazing especially the mushroom caps. the presentation of all items was elegant and clean.
Be Creative Catering catered our wedding and did a FANTASTIC job! Michelle and Travis from our first meeting were so helpful and knowledgeable with everything we needed to know. They helped us pick the perfect menu! We did appetizers, a sit down dinner, late night food and cake! There were a lot of moving pieces and it came together flawlessly!! The staff was so wonderful and everyone said they were very friendly. Our food was ALL delicious, hot, and fresh! Our guests are still talking about it over 3 months later. We are forever grateful to Be Creative Catering for helping to make our wedding day run so smooth and leaving our guests with full stomachs!!
Be Creative Catering was amazing to work with. The wide range of options made it hard to pick, everything was so delicious! We highly recommend the signature chicken and mash potatoes!! We have had so many of our guests compliment that this was the best food they ever had at a wedding!
The food was AMAZING! I never have thought I could ever say this. I am pretty darn picky and going back to the tasting, everything was so tasty and incredibly well prepared, I wondered how feeding the amount of people we had could still taste so good and fresh and hot. Well it WAS! I received endless compliments on the meal and how good it was. I am so happy to be able to say this. I will be spreading the word on how well we were treated and how easy it was to work with your team. Our day was much more enjoyable knowing that I didn’t have to worry about the meal. My crowd was stuffed with really good food and this makes me happy!!
The food choices were immense, and we couldn’t be happier with our choices. The signature grilled chicken and garlic mashed potatoes were delicious. Many guests commented about how good it all was and I saw several go back for seconds.
Of all the decisions we made during the wedding planning process, my husband and I agree that selecting Be Creative Catering was the best choice we made (next to choosing each other)! The food was the most delicious we have had at any wedding yet and we’ve been to plenty. The staff during the event was extremely helpful and I didn’t have to worry about any details. They had it all covered. CHOOSE THIS CATERER! You and your guests will be so happy!
We hired Be Creative Catering for our daughter’s wedding in July. The food was absolutely amazing, and all of our guests were raving about it! From the passed hors d’oeuvres, sit down dinner of salmon and chicken, salad, bartenders and staff, rehearsal dinner, ALL details were met and surpassed. Travis offers advice and help with every aspect of the catering end. I will use them again in the future and would not hesitate to hire them for a wedding. Amazing!
Be Creative Catering were absolutely wonderful for my daughter’s wedding this past Saturday. The food was excellent! Staff was wonderful to work with. Very professional and accommodating. In planning the menu they offered a great variety of choices so we could make it uniquely ours. Michelle and Travis were so easy to work. Travis went out of his way to help us with tasks that were not caterer related but he saw us doing and he sent us to go enjoy the wedding. – he had it. He noticed before they left we were running low on bottled water and went and bought us some. That is going way above the call. I would definitely use them again. You will not be disappointed. They want your wedding to be perfect 😊
Michelle was easy to work with and helped us pick something perfect for my parents 50th Anniversary. The food was great and the fruit plate and charcuterie plates looked beautiful!! It was just what we needed and I’d suggest them to anyone. Thank you for helping to make the night great!
Be Creative Catering was a fantastic decision for us. We had them do both our rehearsal and wedding and they nailed it. The food was phenomenal. We did a BBQ pork and fried chicken on Friday with mac n cheese and corn pudding – to die for. Saturday’s prime rib and chicken piccata were on point. Everything was hot and delicious. The servers helped to keep people moving thought the buffet lines to keep us on schedule. We did pre-set waters which they filled throughout the service. Never an empty glass which is exactly what we wanted. The bartenders were friendly and efficient keeping lines from ever backing up throughout the night. These people are professionals and they know what they’re doing. Reduce your wedding stress and let Be Creative Catering take care of you and your guests, so you can focus on the million other aspects of your big day.
We initially had our tasting in February and I did not stop thinking about this food until our wedding in late July. Everything was absolutely delicious! Travis did a great job with all the food, ensuring that everything was perfect and exactly what we wanted!
Be Creative was amazing to work with and we got so many compliments on our food! They were on the preferred list for our venue and was the most reasonably priced. The testing was so much food and as we ate on the leftovers for days after, we knew we made the right decision because it was still delicious! the staff on the day of was great to work with too! They helped outside of dinner and we’re very kind. Can’t say enough good things!
My husband and I hired Be creative catering for our rehearsal dinner and wedding and this food is AMAZING. All of our guest raved about the BBQ we had at our reception. The team is very professional as well and attentive to you and your guests!
Be Creative Catering cannot be beat . From the planning, to the tasting, to the event they are with you every step of the way. Their food is of the highest quality, and the staff was phenomenal at taking care of the bridal party, the families and all the guest. Trust me you will have friends and family at the reception and days later telling you it was the “Best Food they have ever had at a reception ” and they will ask you for the caters name. You will find their pricing is very competitive with others, but the food quality is far superior .. You should definitely add Be Creative to your list of considerations.
We worked with Be Creative Catering for our wedding and I couldn’t be happier with them! From start to finish Travis was superb! The food was amazing and we got so many compliments from guests! I feel like wedding food can sometimes be a gamble but Be Creative has good, quality ingredients, and amazing flavor! It was literally hard to decide on what we wanted served because it was all SO good. Travis had a lot of great recommendations and his experience as a caterer and someone who works in the wedding community shows. After the wedding was over the entire wedding party went in the kitchens and filled up on leftovers and its one of my favorite, simple memories of my wedding. Forks out, surrounded by friends, eating great food. I highly recommend them!
Michelle and Travis were a joy to work with! From our initial meeting and tasting, we knew we selected the right caterers for our daughter’s wedding. They always responded promptly to all our questions and requests, and were happy to make all the adjustments we asked for. The food was outstanding! A variety to select from to accommodate all tastes! On the day of the wedding, their team and their service were just great. Our guests repeatedly told us how much they enjoyed the meal. We would not hesitate for a moment to contact them again! Thanks again Michelle & Travis!
