Christina and her team were amazing for our 124 person wedding. We had a lot of complicated requests including the addition of an ice cream bar for dessert and many dietary restrictions to accommodate. Everything tasted amazing and it was well worth the price!
The only piece of improvement I would say is that timely communication could be better. I acknowledge how crazy and busy wedding/catering season(s) can be. Sometimes it took a few email check-ins to get some responses.
I would 100% hire Creative Cuisine again in the future for an event I was planning!

Christina was so incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process - helping us through the rental process and deciding the best serving method for our large wedding. She was upfront about our options for ordering alcohol and dessert and flexible with our choices. On the day of she was great with the setup and we received so many compliments on the food from our guests. Cannot recommend enough for any catering needs.

Christina and team were amazing from start to finish! We gave guests a choice between crabcakes and beef tenderloin and both were incredible! The crabcakes were almost entirely lump crabmeat and my guests raved! The apppetizers and everything were delicious as well. Christina was easy and accomodating to work with throughout the process and it was more than we could have hoped for!

Christina did a great job, especially given the fact that we increased our guest count on her from the original guess of <200 to 250. The food was so delicious and we had many people come tell us how good all the food was! We ended up doing family style serving and she made sure every guest had more than enough food. They were slightly understaffed due to our change in guest count, but she was very honest and clear with us about it and helped to find ways we could change things up beforehand to make sure it ran more smoothly the day of. Her team was also essential in the set up and take down of the wedding.
She made DELICIOUS crab cakes apps, candied bacon, salmon, and steak. She also set up an oyster bar for us through a different company that was amazing. The oysters were massive and a huge hit. She also was super flexible with family and friends with food restrictions, including vegan and gluten free. And all of it was very reasonably priced too!!!
Christina overall is just a great person to work with. Calm, cool, collected. She is experienced and friendly. I highly recommend Creative Cuisine!!!

Christina and her team did an amazing job with our wedding reception! Planning a wedding in Annapolis from Hawaii is not easy so we sort of did it in reverse by hiring her and then taste testing and we were SO happy with the taste test all the food was delicious! Christina understood all of the different goals for the evening from an abundant cocktail hour to dinner options that would please everyone but not be a standard wedding meal and it all turned out great! Her staff was kind and quick and the bartenders kept up with some heavy drinking and we heard many compliments about how well the staff kept up with all aspects of the night. Christina was easy to work with when it came to COVID postponement and she handled all of the rental items even when things needed to shift due to guest numbers and ceremony change requiring more chairs etc. she handled it all and it was all executed so well. Christina’s pricing is extremely reasonable, her food is delicious, and the service was amazing what more could we ask for on our big day! I would highly recommend her to anyone getting married or hosting an event in the Annapolis area!

My husband and I were very pleased with Creative Cuisine's services! Christina provided a complimentary tasting and the food was delicious. Christina was very thoughtful and sent me home with leftovers when she learned my husband couldn't attend the tasting. From there out Christina proposed delicious selections for our menu and helped facilitate rentals to go along such as linens, cutlery, and glassware. All in all the food was delicious and excellent service. I would highly recommend creative cuisine to cater an event! Thank you Christina!

We are so grateful that we chose Creative Cuisine for our wedding! The food was absolutely incredible at the tasting and was just as delicious for our 100 wedding guests. Christina helped us fit our budget and was very easy to communicate with throughout the planning process. She was also flexible and supportive when we had to reschedule twice due to COVID. Christina helped us to create a cohesive look for our rentals (linens, chargers, silverware, glassware, etc.) and visited our venue with us to discuss final details. She let us make changes leading up to the wedding and was so easy to work with. Her crab dip is absolutely incredible! We got to enjoy it twice during our wedding weekend, because she gave us some extra to go. All of the food looked beautiful and tasted fantastic at the reception. We could not have been happier with Creative Cuisine. Thank you Christina!

Christina and her team were extremely helpful throughout the whole process. She worked with a few of my changes due to Covid with no problem. The day of the wedding Christina and her staff basically set up the whole venue for us and I am forever grateful!

Christina and her staff catered my wedding on August 16th. They were so flexible when I had to change my wedding plans due to COVID-19 and they took extra precautions to make others feel safe. Their staff was so friendly and made sure me, my husband, and my bridal party was fed. The food was delicious and I've had multiple guests tell me that was the best food they've ever had at at wedding. They also were the cheapest caterer option when I was looking at caterers. Christina made the planning process seamless and she will be one thing you don't have to worry about for your wedding (she seriously thought of everything). You should look no further than Creative Cuisine!

We got so many compliments on our wedding food! It was important to us that the food was good, a little unique and felt like us. Christina put together a fabulous menu in our budget and coordinated all the other liquor and rental details without a hitch. She knew what she was doing which made us feel great, as we were clueless! Highly recommend her crab cakes and caramelized bacon appetizer, yum!

My husband and I would like to extend our deepest appreciation for Christina and her staff at Creative Cuisine. The food at our wedding was absolutely amazing. Countless guests came up to us during our wedding and said, "This is the best wedding food I have ever had". The service was impeccable; Creative Cuisine is truly a class act.
Throughout the entire process, Christina was wonderful. She is committed to providing excellent food and service at a price point that is accessible to the average family. Christina was responsive, kind, and calm during our wedding day. If you are searching for an amazing caterer for your wedding or event, stop now. . . You've found them: Creative Cuisine!!!

Kristen and team were on point every step of the way. We planned our wedding from the west coast and every interaction with creative cuisine was quick, helpful and professional. We have some pretty picky eaters and the guests haven’t stopped raving about the braised short ribs (yummmm)!
Kristen did everything possible to help us create a fabulous experience for 200 people and wow what a success. My one ask was to make dinner quick and seamless and they were able to give me my wish easily. I am also gluten free with a few gluten free guests and accommodations were easily made to address our needs.
If you have a chance to work with Kristen and her crew you won’t be disappointed!

My husband and I received compliments our entire wedding about how AWESOME the food was - and we agreed! We went with a brunch theme and Christina and her team executed it flawlessly. From the beginning, Christina was wonderful to work with - willing to help us out since we were clearly clueless, provided honest feedback, and was sincere about addressing our concerns. Prices were very fair. I gave 4 stars because at times I ran into some issues with communication. I wish communicating back and forth happened a little sooner than it did (getting back to me about final quotes, changes in menu, receipt of my emails sent, etc). I very highly recommend this vendor.

my overall experience wasn't mind blowing and I can actually say I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. the food was the only thing that was decent. the staff that was hired to work the day of my wedding were uninformed of what was expected they knew nothing about what was in the food and wasn't able to communicate to my guess properly, the ingredient cards weren't put out which lead to my friend having an allergic reaction at my reception. the process of planning wasn't reassuring things weren't communicated I went through 2 different coordinators the first one I loved the second one....... honestly wanted to switch catering companies but I felt it was too late. I have yet to receive a follow up email call or an apology for the day of my wedding.

Creative Cuisine is an amazing catering company and we could not be happier with our decision to have chosen them for our wedding!! It was very important to us to have a company local to our venue, and especially to have the head of the catering company there; and Christina was fully involved (and there) from our initial meeting all the way through our full reception. The food was excellent!! Everyone is still talking about how delicious everything was, especially the rock fish bites. The service was amazing as well!! The staff made sure that the bridal party got to have appetizers and drinks even while taking photos. All of the staff, including the bartenders, were very personable and friendly. Even as the bride and groom, they made us a plate that had a little bit of everything, and we were fully able to enjoy a great meal during our reception. If you are looking for great food, great service, and an excellent chef, Creative Cuisine is the way to go!!!!
A huge Thank you to Christina and her staff for adding that special element to help make our big day even more wonderful!!

Christina at Creative Cuisine was fabulous to work with! She is professional and has a wonderful ability to understand your vision and develop a menu that meets that vision. Christina and her staff are very attentive and thoughtful. They made sure to bring hors d'oeuvres around to the bridal party while taking pictures and were a great help when cleaning up all the decorations post the reception. My husband and I were very much looking forward to the food on our wedding day and Creative Cuisine did not disappoint!

We decided to go with a cocktail style wedding reception rather than a typical sit-down dinner. We were trying to be cost conscious both coming from extremely large families and having a limited budget. When submitting requests to most caterer's they weren't interested in the "smallish" jobs and quoted us for elaborate spreads that were practically 5-course dinners.
When we called Christina and explained what we were looking for, she immediately started making suggestions that sounded plausible. We scheduled our first appointment with her where she had a tentative menu already written up based on the previous conversation. After a few changes here and there to personalize them menu for our particular taste, we came up with a show-stopper. We were able to have a sampling of some of her food before hand and wished we could have served it all!
The menu ranged from a wide variety of fruits and vegetables to gourmet cheeses (including brie topped with cranberries -- replacing the normal cherries because of my affinity for cranberries) to gluten free chicken dishes to quite possibly the best beef sliders I've ever eaten.
Even though it was a cocktail styled reception, everyone left happy and full, complimenting us on the wonderful food. Christina came fully prepared with an excellent and efficient staff that worked tirelessly and were the friendliest catering staff I've ever met at a wedding. She made sure that my husband and I had food at our table for when we were able to sit down during our trips around the room.
Christina may be a one-man show, but she knows her business and knows how to take care of her clients. I'd recommend her for any event and look forward to working with her again!
