Absolutely wonderful!
We were originally supposed to have our wedding in June but because of COVID we had to move it to September and cut the guest list significantly. Bears was super flexible. Every member of the team was excellent- Sydney in catering was extremely helpful, and the staff at the wedding did a wonderful job. And of course the food was amazing!

Covid wedding
Staff very knowledgeable & friendly. Catering manager took the time to go through all options & offered opinions on executing a menu that would fit all of our needs. Day of, serving staff were engaged, friendly, & truly felt as if they were part of the family during our small backyard bbq Covid wedding. My guests still comment today how awesome the food was & how having Bears cater was genius. Sydney & staff come highly recommended!
