To put it best from one of our wedding guests (who also has celiac, no less):
“Thank you so much for being so thoughtful about the gluten allergy. It was so freaking cool to be able to go to a wedding and eat pizza and cookies. And the pizza caterers were so thoughtful and amazing with me.”
This note from one of our friends really encapsulates our experience with Basic Kneads at our September 2024 wedding. Christen and Joel went above and beyond when serving all of our guests—not only churning out tons of amazing pizza so quickly that no one ever needed to wait more than a few moments, but also taking the time to help accommodate a variety of different dietary restrictions with as much care as logistically possible in the small food truck environment. My husband and I already knew how awesome the food was, as we had been fortunate enough to have gone to a tasting with Basic Kneads a couple summers back to select from their pizza menu (Thai Chili Chicken was a guest favorite, but we’re both Veggie Wiseguy stans), but were once again blown away by it all. Christen also brought Jacob and me a plate of various appetizers right after the ceremony so we could have a private moment before engaging with our guests during cocktail hour. Many of our guests went up for seconds and thirds, and our only regret is that the leftover pizzas that Basic Kneads boxed up for us mysteriously vanished before the reception was over. ;) We would recommend Basic Kneads to anyone getting married in Colorado. They are communicative, affordable, and make unbelievably great food!
Asked a question about minimums and the “event coordinator” was extremely rude and unprofessional. Thankful they at least show their true colors upfront before spending thousands of dollars for them to be rude to guests like they are to clients!
We had an amazing experience with Basic Kneads for our wedding food! Their pizza is DELICIOUS and our guests were so pleased. We had 85 guests at our wedding and they were able to feed everyone promptly! They boxed up all of the leftovers and left them for us for after the wedding. Christen and Joel were responsive and helpful throughout the process and we are so glad we chose them to cater our wedding.
We had Basic Kneads cater our wedding this past weekend. They did a phenomenal job and our guests were raving about the pizza. They were super efficient and lines were short which was important to me. If you want a laid back vibe with pizza at your event or wedding, I highly recommend!
We loved basic kneads! The food truck was awesome for our wedding. The guests loved being able to pick their own slices. Basic kneads was quick, responsive, and got through a whole line of hungry guests really quickly!
We could not be happier with our experience with Basic Kneads at our wedding! First and foremost, the pizza was INCREDIBLE! My now husband and I knew we loved them before the wedding, but our guests were so happy- we heard so many compliments about how much everyone loved the food. The apps were also delicious. Beyond that, the husband and wife team who run Basic Kneads were so kind, professional, and communicative throughout! I could not recommend them enough to anyone who needs wedding catering!
Thank to the Basic Kneads team for being the perfect wedding caterer!! Seeing and smelling the wood fire pizza oven and them tossing the dough beforehand was amazing! And the food!!! Perfection. We had so many compliments, the guests went wild! They boxed up extra when they left and they went so fast we didn't get one! 100/10 would recommend. Do the pizza for your wedding!! ♥️
Heck yes this was the move for our mountain wedding! The pizza was to die for and it added such a fun touch to our wedding. These peeps know what they are doing when it comes to weddings. Don’t hesitate in booking them for your wedding if you want it to be memorable.
We used Basic Kneads for our rehearsal dinner and absolutely loved it! The wood fire pizza oven was a hit, really tasty food. More importantly the staff was top notch, SO friendly and easy to work with made at least one part of our wedding planning journey seamless!
Basic Kneads is amazing! We booked them for our wedding and the food & staff were incredible. They were extremely responsive & professional from initial inquiry all the way through day of. Our guests loved the fun idea of a pizza buffet for a wedding and Basic Kneads - they also provided appetizers for cocktail hour! Visit Basic Kneads in Golden or hire them for your next event - either way, you NEED Basic Kneads!
We hired Basic Kneads after trying a few different plated/family style/buffet type caterers and weren't super impressed with the food. Basic Kneads was amazing. We loved their food and so did our guests. It is so affordable and we had left overs for later in the night and even more to take home. The service is amazing and with the help of our DJ the line moved very quickly.
We had some late night snacks and desserts from other vendors that the Basic Kneads staff even helped us with before they left.
Our venue owners have worked with them before our wedding and said before and after that they are one of their favorite vendors to work with. 10/10 would recommend!
Basic Kneads Pizza was a huge hit at our wedding! Everyone raved about the pizza and we were so happy with everything they provided us. Thai chili chicken and the veggie PestO.M.G were the favorites of the night. The food truck vibe fit perfectly with our mountain casual wedding. Definitely check them out!
Basic Kneads catered the welcome party prior to our wedding. They were easy and pleasant to coordinate with leading up to our event, and did a fantastic job day of. The food was delicious and all the Basic Kneads team members were so kind and pleasant to our guests. They were efficient and professional when it came to all aspects of the event, arriving and setting up on time, keeping hot and fresh food available throughout, and even boxing up our leftovers at the end of the night. We got so many compliments on the food and service, and we would highly recommend Basic Kneads' catering to other couples.
Basic Kneads catered our wedding and were EXCEPTIONAL!! I cannot say enough good things about our experience. We had booked them pre-Covid and they worked with us as our wedding plans continued to change again and again. Not only was the food delicious (our guests are still raving), but they were so thoughtful throughout the prep, planning, and execution. Highly recommend! They made sure to adhere to Covid Guidelines and kept everyone happy and fed :) We are so thankful for them!
Basic Kneads was the PERFECT catering company for our wedding! My husband and I eat pizza at least once a week so for us, pizza was a necessity. Basic Kneads delivers such a unique experience, offering wood fired pizza right from their truck. They have so many different, delicious options. I would highly recommend them to cater any event! Yum!
THESE GUYS ARE AMAZING!
The pizza was incredible and truly brought out our camping personalities. So many options and they kept them coming!
The unique vibe a food truck brings to a wedding is memorable.
WE LOVE YOU GUYS! See you soon in Golden!
Basic Kneads was super fun and awesome for our big day. Our wedding was outdoors in the garden at a local museum, and it was super fun to have Basic Kneads on site, cooking hot, fresh food for our guests. Plus, they can accommodate dietary needs on the spot! They were super easy to work with, and way, way simpler than a full-service caterer. Really fun if they fit your vibe!
Our guests absolutely raved about the pizza! Every step of the way from initial contact to the actual wedding day was simple. Couldn't be happier!
First of all...their wood fired pizza is amazing! Every guest at the wedding absolutely loved the food! I scheduled them about 10 months in advance and they were always super responsive and really did a great job serving 140 people dinner in about an hour and a half. They showed up ready to go with appetizers, and then after a quick turnover they had pizza & salad ready. Food was fresh and delicious! They have great appetizer, salad, and pizza selections. They were extremely professional and we are so happy they catered our daughter's wedding!
Gosh, everything about this place was amazing! We knew we wanted pizza at our wedding. They made our day PERFECT. There was no waiting for pizza; there were no complaints, and it was delicious. They served so quickly and efficiently. Also, their prices are WAY better than a lot of other pizza vendors. SO. WORTH. IT!
So. Good. We wanted something a little less traditional for our dinner, and Basic Kneads was awesome. Our guests have been raving about how delicious the food was for DAYS!
Basic Kneads was exactly what we wanted for our mountain wedding in July 2018. They were very responsive throughout the whole process, and very organized and accommodating. Everything went so smoothly on the wedding day, and everyone loved the pizza! Would definitely recommend!
Basic Kneads is the bomb.com. They were responsive, easy to work with, professional and on top of all that their pizza is amazing! About 10% of our guests were gluten free and they gladly accommodated them. Not to mention they wrapped up a bunch of pizzas for us at the end of the night. Everything went smoothly and I would not hesitate to hire them again for an event. Thanks, Basic Kneads, for making our day easy and impressing all our guests with your awesome pies.
We went for the 1 appetizer, salad and pizza and it was absolutely perfect for our wedding with around 80 people. Basic Kneads were super easy to communicate with and everything was on time with no issues. Our guests loved the food and said it was the best wedding food they'd ever had. Highly recommended!
I would highly recommend Basic Kneads to cater your wedding. We had so many compliments on the pizza, and it was awesome to see them making the pizzas right there on site. Everyone was friendly, professional, and timely in responding to our requests. Very nice to work with. Thanks!
I wish I could give 10 stars. This company is without a doubt the best decision I made during my wedding planning! Not only was the food absolutely outstanding, but they were reasonably priced and so much fun to have serving us during the wedding. All my guests continue to talk about how awesome, unique and delicious the food was! If you want to have a wedding with great food, outside of the typical "chicken or fish" wedding dinner options- go with Basic Kneads!!
Basic Kneads was absolutely the best choice for our wedding. The pizza is delicious and the service is even better. They were so wonderful to work with and made everything we requested happen. We requested a specific oven for our wedding and they brought it. We made changes to the salad and they accommodated with no issue. I would absolutely have them again for any event! Thank you so much!
We loved having them cater our wedding in October. And our guests loved it, too. They are still talking about how delicious their pizza is and how unique it was! I would highly recommend them.
For my wedding I wanted a caterer that would appeal to everyone. I met with Laura and the Basic Kneads truck to sample their pizzas and fell in love. They have unique pizza flavors as well as the popular options and have the option to include appetizers and salad. Laura helped me finalize all of the details and was also there on my wedding day to help make sure everything went smoothly. The food was a huge success! I will definitely plan to use them again!
Basic Kneads catered our wedding in Estes Park, CO at Overlook Ranch. They brought up the oven and cooked on site. I honestly wasn't sure how it would work out... but our guests really loved it! We got a greek style, meaty italian, thai chicken, cheese, and buffalo chicken. We got so many compliments.... I couldn't believe it! The staff was so friendly and kind and even let one of my super excited friends participate. The salad was really fresh and tasty too! I could not be more happy with their service and food. Thanks so much!!! We really appreciate it!
Pizza was a great alternative to traditional wedding food for our wedding. It added to the laid back atmosphere perfectly. And they were even able to provide appetizers for us and help clean up after dinner. I would recommend them to anyone!
I really loved having Basic Kneads for our wedding and so did all of our guests. Not only was it a fun and different option, their food (salads and pizza) were absolutely delicious. We got several different kinds of pizzas and were even able to cater to our vegetarian and gluten free friends. We had quite a bit less people than we anticipated and so they even left a few extra pizzas that they had intended to make.
