Weeks later and we still have wedding guests raving to us about our food that we had at our wedding! They do tastings often, which are a great way to try lots of options and build a menu. We went at least 3 times! Staff are incredible to work with

We worked with Catie and Catering Creations for our June 2023 wedding at UNO's Thompson Alumni Center. The planning process was easy. Catering Creations hosts monthly tasting events so we were able to try a variety of food options. Catie was very responsive and accommodated all of my questions and requests. I wanted table linens and she took care of all the coordinating with the rental company. I didn't have to worry about it at all. Catering Creations loaned us two beautiful gold cake stands to use during the reception.
Everything ran smoothly with our appetizers and buffet set up. I hardly even noticed Catie and her staff were at our reception! The food was phenomenal. Catering Creations has the most amazing mac n cheese. Even as the bride, I made sure that I had time to eat and even went back for seconds. The chicken nugget meals for kids was great as well! Our guests raved about the food. The only negative comment we heard (and the groom experienced) was that the bar tending staff were not very friendly.
Their catering is a bit more expensive that competitors, but I think it is justified as the food really is top-notch. The payment process was a bit confusing as they don't seem to have very simple online invoicing technology. There were a couple instances where I had to do some calculations myself and contact Catering Creations to confirm and provide payment information.
If you want amazing food and a responsive coordinator, definitely work with Catering Creations!
Any questions?

Our wedding reception was at Founders One Nine and we had Catering Creations cater the meal. We had an excellent experience creating our menu based on the monthly tasting dinners and meetings with Summer! Our food was excellent, and they were accommodating for our guests with dietary restrictions as well! They have such a wide variety of options which was helpful! the food was hot when it arrived to our guests and we got so many compliments on it!
Thank you!!

Not a great experience. From the beginning, it was made very clear to us that they were very busy and had lots and lots of other weddings to plan. As a result, plans for our wedding we handled last minute; although, we were assured that it would all be ok when we asked about it.
Fast forward to the wedding day... We never saw Summer. We never got introduced to the person who was running the show.
We wrote an email to the owner with some of the concerns that we had from the wedding day. Her response was apologetic, but also came off to me as defensive and "poor me." After telling us how her team has been working days, nights and weekends, she reassures us that she and her team are turning away requests so that they can provide high quality to services.
After going through each of our concerns, Jennifer explains to us that "There is no one working harder right now than those in restaurants/catering/hotels and all levels of hospitality all over the country." My wife is a special education teacher. I am a medical student. We both absolutely love what we do. However, this comment from Jennifer hurt us both, and made us feel like she could not understand how we feel during these times. I think it is fairly safe to say that schools and hospitals have been seriously impacted by COVID, and Jennifer's comment made us feel as though the our challenges are insignificant compared to hers.
While I certainly appreciate their efforts and wish their business continued success in the future, our experiences with catering creations were sub par. The email response from Jennifer added to the dissatisfaction.
Should someone reach back out to us and work with us to make things right, we're happy to update our review!

Dear Andrew,
Thank you for your comments.
It was never my intent to hurt you or your wife ...
with my comment about the condition of the hospitality industry. You are right. I was probably a bit defensive about that topic and I apologize. I greatly appreciate and admire the medical and educational fields now and always and had not intended a comment about the hospitality industry to make you or anyone feel that their work is not valued.
As discussed, your event producer, Summer had bronchitis and could not work on the day of your event nor that week. Samantha was the main contact for your event and she introduced herself when she arrived to the day of contact that we were given during the planning phase of your event (a member of your bridal party). Although you did speak to Samantha several times during your event, I apologize that you were not aware she was your main contact for the day and for any confusion or worry this may have caused.
After your event, you had offered advice to us that we should focus on quality vs. quantity and when I told you we were turning away business, I was simply trying to assure you that we were doing just that.
I am sorry that you were not satisfied with all aspects of our services. We work to make every event happy and smooth for our clients and their guests and I am sorry that you do not feel we accomplished that for you.
Again, my apologies for my comment about the hospitality industry and its workers as it pains me to think I caused anyone hurt with my words. That was not the intent of my comment and I appreciate you pointing out to me.
Thank you again for your feedback. We will use comments like these in in our service training.
-Jennifer

Worked with catering creations through the Thompson center and was so happy we did. The food was AMAZING! I still hear people raving about it months later. But the best thing that came out of catering creations was Whitney! She was the best coordinator and truly made our wedding what it was. She was so helpful, very detail oriented and made me calm when I was worried it wouldn't come together.

Not only did Catering Creations provide amazing food that we got a lot of compliments on, but they were wonderful to work with. Working with Nicole was wonderful, she made everything so simple, from helping us come up with a floor plan, to telling us more about menu items, she knew it all. The bartenders, staff, and servers were so friendly and on top of everything. We didn't have to worry about anything, and were able to really enjoy our day.

The food that we served was very important to my husband and me. We wanted our appetizers, dinner choices, and late-night snacks to be representative to us and Catering Creations definitely delivered! We are so happy with how easy it was to create our menu and how flexible the Catering Creations team was to work with. Almost a week later and our guests are still raving about the food!

My husband and I tied the knot about two weeks ago! We were originally concerned about paying quite a bit for food and bar costs, but the service, quality and end results were so worth it!!! Our day went on w/o a hitch. Catering Creations offers professional, flexible and knowledgeable staff who are well-versed in the wedding industry. I worked closely with Christine and Theresa, both of these women are extraordinary! They offer top of the line customer service, prompt replies and are BEYOND flexible. We planned my wedding together by phone, email and in person visits. Even though I live over 2000 miles away, they did all they could to keep me in the loop and satisfied!

Their food is great. Be careful with your numbers. We had 40 people not show up, and basically ate all the food. I can't imagine what would have happened if everyone showed up. The pop up dessert station was incredible. All of the food is great and tastes amazing. They just have small portion sizes, so if you think everyone will show up- I would have a cushion built in! We had 6 boxes of desserts left, and NO food.

Catering Creations provided us with an amazing wedding meal! Everything we were able to try beforehand from our menu was exactly as expected on our wedding day. We received countless compliments on the food from our guests. Theresa and staff were so helpful answering all questions very quickly and put together a beautiful set-up for the wedding. There were so many delicious options, that I don't think we could've gone wrong.

We had a great experience with Catering Creations! Our venue did not have a restriction on caterers so we shopped around a lot. When we tried the food at Catering Creations and met with Nicole, we were sold. The price was incredibly reasonable and the food was incredible. Three weeks after our wedding we are still receiving high compliments from our guests on how great the food was. They got our large guest count through the lines quickly at the reception and executed the whole night seamlessly. If even the smallest detail went wrong, I definitely didn't hear about it. The night just seemed to go perfect. Catering Creations handled the ordering/coordination of our rentals as well as this was not provided by our venue. We had to make a couple of decisions and then they handled the whole thing. It was an incredible weight off our shoulders knowing they were handling everything. We just couldn't have been more happy to have chosen them for our wedding day!

We booked Catering Creations for our wedding reception at the Durham Museum. They were amazing to work with. We lived out of town and therefore did much of our planning via e-mail with them. They not only provided the food and bar services they also helped provide the rentals for the venue through another company so were were able to do so much through them. We did station food which was fruit, salad, and different pastas and sauces with toppings. Another station was a potato bar and roast beef and everyone loved it. Many of our guests said it was the best food they have ever had. The people who worked the bar did amazing as well and got to know our guests which made them feel special. We met with them and the person in charge of the Durham Museum to lay out a floor plan so that the rental company knew where everything was to be placed. The rental company put everything out for us and took care of it at the end of the night so we did not have to clean up at all (except for our centerpieces and personal items we brought). I highly recommend this company. They are quick to respond to emails or phone calls and really accommodating. I am so happy we went with them for our wedding. The staff were hard working and friendly to all our guests. I cannot say enough good things about this company and how hard working they are for couples!

Catering Creations was amazing! They catered our wedding and the food was fantastic! We had so many compliments! They were extremely easy to work with and have a ton of fun and unique options. I highly recommend the parmesan encrusted pork loin! The one thing that I didn't love was that they don't offer free taste tests. They have Chef's Dinners once a month and the menu changes each time. But you have to pay $15 each time to go. I would have liked to have had a simple tasting with our choices and I would have gladly paid the $15 to make sure my menu was perfect. Instead, we took a leap of faith and chose the pork without trying it beforehand. Granted, I haven't had anything at Catering Creations I didn't love! I just wish I could have had a normal tasting before the wedding meal, like most caterers offer. Otherwise, they were fantastic to work with! I highly recommend them!

Catering Creations is beyond amazing! It's been over a month since our wedding and people are still talking about the food. Kathleen was awesome helping us pick out a menu and setting everything up for our rentals through AAA. She was sort of like our own personal wedding planner! Highly highly recommend Catering Creations if you want good quality food and a company that cares about making your day the best ever!

My husband and I were extremely happy with Catering Creations. They catered our food and the bar.
Our wedding guests loved the food!! Quite a few people said it was the best they have ever had at a wedding.
We wanted the food served family style and had wine & beer table service plus full bar.
The service was perfect. The staff and servers were on top of everything quickly and it was seamless. They timed everything perfectly - Food and drinks were brought out quickly and plates cleared, but nothing felt rushed.
Highly recommend!!

It was easy to work with Nicole AT Catering Creations. I was a little apprehensive as we can't have a full tasting of our menu prior, but the food was so delicious and cooked to the perfect temp. And our venue did not have a kitchen so the caterers really have to know what they are doing and they did.
They are quite pricey, but I feel the value is worth it because they are so competent and creative as well. They can prepare food that is far above your average banquet food.

The food at Catering Creations is excellent. We absolutely loved all of the choices we had. We didn't get to choose this caterer because of a contract with our venue, but I'm glad it was them because their food and service is fantastic.
The day of the wedding, they handled everything and I honestly have zero complaints during the entire day. The only kink I have with Catering Creations is it's difficult to try food before the wedding day. Every month they have tasting sessions where you can go and try food that they prepare. But if you look online and see a certain dish you want to try, it's difficult to get them to comply. Luckily, my husband talked them into adding our food to their monthly menu, so I was able to taste it.
Overall, super happy! I'd totally use them again for another event. And everyone RAVED about the Walnut Dip, so maybe give that a try. :)

As the groom and the one who paid for this catering company, I wanted to wait a few weeks before I wrote a review as I really thought that this is important and I wanted to put an awful lot of thinking into this so that other bride and grooms can make informed decisions on this company. Being out of state I was most nervous about the Catering as this can be quite pricey. The company my wife chose, Catering Creations is who we finally chose to work with after much research and studying. Not just because of the reviews that we read but because of the most amazing patience and courtesy we experienced with each of their employees prior to hiring them. I was so impressed with how they were handling my endless questions and ease of working with them. Let me tell you, they were fantastic! When it became time to decide our menu selection, we were over budget and when I relayed this to the Catering Creation people, they made it their focus to meet my budget without sacrificing too much of our food desires. I can't even tell you how amazing they were in working with. It was so refreshing that I decided to hire them to cater our rehearsal dinner as well. Everyone in my wedding party raved about how amazing the food was for the rehearsal dinner and when my fiancé and I informed everyone that they were going to cater our wedding as well, there were a lot of happy people there. When the big day arrived the next day, Catering Creations were absolutely brilliant! They did and supplied everything that was contracted for and in all honesty, they were quite amazing. They showed up when they said they would and they were all business, extremely professional and anything that my wife wanted to change, they were right there and very accommodating. I really don't remember seeing them at all but they were definitely present. It's hard to explain but they were perfectly behind the scenes getting things set-up and done but at the same time, they were always available. Their meal presentation was breathtaking and so many guests of ours that did not participate in the rehearsal dinner consistently kept complimenting the food and how amazing it was and how delicious it was. Unfortunately, as the bride and groom, we only were able to eat one plate whereas I heard from numerous people that they went up for thirds and fourths!! That is how good the food was for people. Even now, I still hear about how great the food was at our wedding. There really is not much more to say except that you would be foolish not to hire this company as your caterer. They were such a blessing to have working with us and I cannot say enough about them. If you have any hesitation with this company, do not fret one bit and go all in with them.

Catering Creations was awesome to work with and the food was incredible!! The guests at our reception said over and over again that this was "THE" best buffet they had ever been to. The food was delicious!! Their signature salad is the best!! The portion sizes were plenty big and there were only a few servings left over to take home and enjoy later.
The staff the night of the reception were great to work with. They were attentive and were available to help us with anything that came up. They were constantly clearing dishes and filling water glasses. The service was incredible!!
The event planner we worked with was also great. She remembered both of us by name after only meeting with us one time. This impressed us considering the number of events they plan and the number of people they work with. We took advantage of their monthly tastings...well, worth the time and money. The tastings gave us the opportunity to taste the exact food we were going to serve our guests.
They coordinated all of our equipment rentals and everything was delivered and picked up on time.
I would recommend Catering Creations to anyone planning any kind of event. They are awesome to work with and the food is incredible!!

They were basically my wedding planner. My wedding wouldn't of been the same with any other caterer. I have never been to a wedding were I hear people talk about the great food. Well, people were at my wedding! It was a big hit! 50 starts in the overall rating!

Catering Creations worked with us to select a meal that was delicious and close to our price range. They were always helpful and willing to answer questions or rework the menu when we changed our minds. We got TONS of compliments on the food (a white lasagna and a traditional lasagna), even from the photographer and DJ, who eat a lot of wedding food! Not too pricey considering the quality and comparing to other caterers.

When planning our wedding, My Husband and I both got recommendations for the caterer from friends and work associates: both were for Catering Creations. After working with Jackie and her team, i can see why they came so highly recommended. The food was delicious and they accommodated our special requests and last minute changes. Special food requirements were not a problem. We also used their rental services for plates, glasses, and linens. They made it so easy! Being a bride who was into the details, it was a relief to know something as important as food and beverages was in good hands.

We used catering creations for our reception in small-town Nebraska. Not only were our guests impressed with the variation in food, but the service they provided was exceptional. The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was set up and cleaned up. Dirty dishes never sat long on any table. The staff even helped me with a dessert station that their company did not provide the food for.
During the planning process, they were so helpful and flexible to help us find exactly what we wanted. The only food item I chose that didn't turn out well, was probably due to my lack of communication and complete description.
As a self proclaimed foodie, I cannot say enough about Catering Creations! They were fantastic!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

We enjoyed working with this couple and this family very much. We had many, many complime...
nts during the event and we were very sad to hear a few days later from the parents that they were not 100% satisfied with our services. We communicated with the parents after the event and reached an agreeable resolution. We are unsure why the post above says that we did not communicate with them after the event. Our best wishes to this couple and their families.

I picked catering creations as my rehearsal dinner caterer because they have an option for a $10 a plate meal. We were on a budget and I figured this was the way to go, and I am glad I did. The service was great, very nice and made sure that we were ready to eat before they set the food out. The food was great and I also picked the package where they set up and clean up so I don't have anything to worry about. I recommend to anyone!

BEST FOOD EVER!!!!!! One thing I loved about this place was that every two months, they have Chef's Dinners where you can go sample some of their menu items. That is what got me hooked on their Smoked Gouda and Bacon Mac 'n Cheese! It was to die for! And all of my wedding guests raved about it for weeks too! And not just the mac 'n cheese... all of their food was incredible. We got so many complements on the food at our wedding! Also, their staff was so great. Both during the planning stages and then at the reception, they were so helpful. At the reception, their staff even cut cake and replenished punch for us! They were absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend them for any occasion!!!!

We had choose to have small trays of little appetizers passed around, and the guests loved it! All of the setup was beautiful, and the food is very tasty. The staff helped us pick out what we would like before by going to tastings and trying the food. They were there set by set to help us make sure that we had all of the rental equipment (chairs,linens, stem ware, dinner ware) that we need for our wedding. They also setup and took down all of the rentals and returned them for us that evening. Very friendly staff, and extremely helpful! The price is very inexpensive for such beautiful work and tasty treats!

Our food was outstanding. Every dish was unique and delicious. We had our rehearsal the morning of the wedding and Catering Creations brought in a lovely breakfast for the bridal party as well as served our lunch. Hands down the best wedding food I have ever had. This wasn't a styrofoam plate filled with iceberg salad and fried chicken. I highly recommend the duck quesadilla for appetizers and they made an outstanding chicken crepe with a mornay sauce for lunch.
