    Amazing Food and Service!

    Creations in Cuisine was the perfect choice for our wedding. We knew going into our wedding day that the food would be amazing, but the service and bartending staff were the cherry on top! We received so much feedback from our wedding guests about how attentive, friendly, and helpful the catering staff were all throughout the evening. Shoutout to Captain Sarah, who kept everything running so smoothly all night. And of course, the food was just perfect. I highly recommend the truffle beef bites and scalloped potatoes. Finally, Amber was always super responsive to my questions and any changes I requested to make. I would definitely recommend Creations in Cuisine for wedding catering.

    Thank you Jessica! We are so happy to have been a part of your big day! Wishing you both the absolute best, and I hope we have opportunities to celebrate with you again in the future.

    Wonderful Experience from Start to Finish

    Creations in Cuisine Catering provided the food and service for our wedding at Desert Botanical Garden, and I truly can't say enough about what a wonderful experience it was from initial inquiry through the end of the night...! The entire CICC team was incredibly responsive, caring, and attentive to our vision and needs. We wanted a Southwestern-influenced buffet that drew on regional inspiration and ingredients, and they crafted a beautiful menu for us that included both delicious beef and chicken entree options alongside an array of vegetarian-friendly sides like green chili sweet potato mash; an amazing jack cheese polenta; and spiced roasted vegetables. As planning evolved, Amber McBain was an invaluable help - answering all of our many questions, checking in regularly, adjusting our menu as we thought of new considerations, and providing wonderful insight and expertise to ensure that we had a truly perfect experience. Thank you to Amber, Frank, Pam, and the entire rest of the team for helping to make our special day such a success!

    Thank you Ali! It was such a pleasure to be a part of your special day and we cant wait to celebrate with you again!

    Best Catering

    Amber was a real pleasure to work with, she was very responsive and professional. She really helped guide us through the whole process and thought of things that we wouldn’t have even known to ask about. The tasting was a fun and informative event. They took care of every little detail from planning to the wedding day. The wedding day team were also very professional and did an amazing job making sure our guests had a great dining experience. The appetizers and dinner were just as we remembered from the tasting; delicious!

    Helpful and Professional

    Coming from out of state to our Sedona wedding was a little stressful to plan, but the folks at Creation in Cuisine made the process so much easier!

    We started with Kevin, who helped us pick the menu and set up the tasting. A little later on, we were switched over to Amber, who took AMAZING care of us! She was able to help itemize everything on our contract so we knew what each rental was for, and she also gave very helpful suggestions to help us make the most of our budget. Even through the changes, they remained very professional and great at communicating, even for the seemingly silly questions at the time.

    We also did the bar service through Creation in Cuisine (we brought the booze, they served). They took really good care of us and our guests throughout the night!

    For any Arizona event, I would highly recommend them!

    Fantastic Customer Service & Unique Menu!

    We hired Creations in Cuisines for our wedding at Agave of Sedona (venue) and they were amazing from beginning to end!!! We had to postpone our wedding multiple times due COVID and we could not have been more thankful for CIC for being a great partner throughout it all.

    We'd like to give a special shoutout to Amber who was our main point of contact. She was super responsive, helpful, professional, had incredible attention to detail, and brought a sense of calm and positivity in a stressful time. We truly felt like we were amongst family with Amber and felt taken care of.

    Beyond the incredible customer service, the food was so so delicious, unique, and artful! We did a heavy hors d'oeuvre style dinner (the street tacos and street corn were amazing!) with milkshakes for dessert, instead of cake. We received so many compliments from our guests on the food and how friendly the staff was. CIC also helped us make a menu that accommodated a variety of dietary needs (Vegetarian, Vegan, Dairy Free), and met the event's vibe. They also helped us make decisions on the event to make it more eco-friendly.

    CIC was so great to work with. We could not recommend them enough!!!

    Creations in Cuisine Catering's reply:

    Thank you Maggie! Your day was so very beautiful, and it was a pleasure to be a part of the magic! It was wonderful collaborating with you to pick the perfect menu, and I am thrilled to hear it was such a hit.

    Great food and experience!

    We are so pleased with how our wedding food turned out! Everyone RAVED about the food from start to finish! We had a great experience from our tasting and knew we needed to choose Creations in Cuisine. We felt very comfortable with how mindful they were with COVID protocols with the servers and they made sure my now husband and I were immediately given a small plate of appetizers after our ceremony before photos started, which was a very nice touch. Definitely a pleasure to work with Kevin, who was always so quick to respond with any questions we had along the way!

    Creations in Cuisine Catering's reply:

    Thank you so very much - I absolutely loved working with you!
    Best wishes to a life filled with love, joy and happiness!

    Fantastic’

    Our guests are still bringing up our wedding meal and saying it was the best that they have had at an event! Even the picky eaters were shocked by how good it was. Kevin was fantastic to work with as well.
    Worth the price 100%!

    FANTASTIC food and service!

    I knew I wanted 3 super quality vendors for my wedding. Food, flowers, and photos. Man did we nail it with all 3!

    First off, coordinating with Amber at Creations in Cuisine was a pure joy. You can tell she really wants you to enjoy yourself and that everything is just what you want. They don't try to push you in to more than you need and they are SUPER accommodating. I have celiac disease and we had a bunch of allergies in our group and they took into consideration ALL of them. Everyone could eat everything. And my little nephews were PUMPED that they got mac and cheese. One of my nephews decided he really liked the catering captain on the day, and kept talking to her and showing her around the yard. She was so great with him. The buffet tables they set up were gorgeous, beyond what we had expected. The thought they put into everything was so lovely. And the food! Oh my gosh! We're still talking about the flank steak, and my brother couldn't get enough of the street tacos. I feel like food often fall short with large catering, this did NOT disappoint.

    It's also great that they work with the rental vendor so we could batch it all in to one!

    Amber, if you see this, thank you for answering all my questions, for being so kind, and always a joy to talk to. You all are the best!

    We can’t overstate how great they were!

    Creations in Cuisine did an amazing job! Through every step of the process they were so professional, personable, and made us feel at ease amidst the craziness of wedding planning. Not to mention that the food was incredible! All we did was tell them a theme and they put together an amazing menu for us. Shout out to Kevin for the incredible service!!

    Delicious...right down to the late-night tacos

    Amber and the whole team at Creations in Cuisine do not cut corners when it comes to delivering flavor and service! They went above and beyond during our preliminary tastings to help us feel confident about the food we were selecting for our cocktail reception, dinner and late night snack. I really appreciated how helpful they were.

    We LOVE food so we knew we couldn't serve anything basic. The CIC team did not disappoint us. The support during the planning process and the execution on the day of was worth every penny. During the cocktail hour, the team was so thoughtful by bringing us our own plate of appetizers while we were rushing about to get photos taken. Similarly during dinner they took extra care to ensure that we got some extra attention and a to-go box filled with delicious treats given that we didn't get much time to truly enjoy the menu we put together.

    From beginning to end we felt like we were in the best hands and were continuously being well taken care of. We absolutely recommend this team for all your celebratory meals!

    Creations in Cuisine Catering's reply:

    Thank you so very much Erica for your kind words! It was truly our pleasure, and such an honor to be a part of your big day! Your wedding was absolutely stunning in every aspect, and we are so grateful to have shared a part in it! Wishing you a lifetime of bliss, and looking forward to the next opportunity to celebrate with the Bullock duo!

    Outstanding in every way!

    Amber & her team were nothing less than outstanding! From the moment we contacted them the first time, through our daughter & son-in-law's twice rescheduled wedding, they were there for us every step of the way. Amber was always responsive, the food was outstanding & the staff was amazing. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

    Professional and personal

    We take our food very seriously so picking a caterer for our wedding was at the top of our list. Kevin's passion for creating a memorable culinary experience was contagious and made us feel like we were in good hands from the beginning. We were able to choose dishes that would woo the carnivore, gluten free and vegan guests alike, all in one place. Kevin and his team were flexible and able to make their menu fit our vision. Because of the changing environment created by COVID19, our wedding plans are evolving but even through this challenging time, the team at Creations Catering has managed to maintain both their professionalism and heart in working with us to find a positive path forward.

    Creations in Cuisine Catering's reply:

    CJ & Eric - Thank you so much for the wonderful review! It was truly our pleasure to be a part of the planning process for your big day! As you embark in life's journey together, we wish you a life full of love and happiness! With Gratitude, Kevin & the entire CICC staff.

    The best experience EVER!!!! 6 star review!!!

    Tony Rea of Creations is beyond a caterer....he is an incredible human being. I have planned extensive parties personally and professionally and he is the easiest, most budget conscious and best listener i have ever worked with. Not only is he a delicious chef, he hires the best staff and will execute your creative vision within your budget. He managed all the vendors and kept them on point. My 111 guest said the evening was MAGICAL and the food was incredible. We had our event at the Steele Herb Garden in the Desert Botanical Garden and even the DBG staff said it was the most gorgeous event they ever saw. I am incredibly particular and could not be happier.

    Thank you Randi, what a great review. I loved working with you and hope to see you soon. Please share your photos when they come in, I would love to see them. Tony

    Amazing Caterer!!!

    Absolutely love CIC! Kevin Scarbrough is the best! Kevin was extremely responsive and helpful in planning the wedding with me throughout the entire process. Kevin came early on the day of, and did an AMAZING job setting up and taking care of all the details. Our whole site looked beautiful. We received so many compliments on how excellent the food was. One of the guests even asked me for CIC's business card. We also had a special food request for my mother-in-law, and Nancy (the banquet captain) made sure that she was served promptly. She really appreciated that. The team at CIC is the best, and we could not have asked for a better caterer! Thanks CIC for making our wedding a huge success!!

    Creations in Cuisine Catering's reply:

    Thank you Lynn! I was truly honored to be able a part of your special day! Your entire family and friends are AMAZING and you looked absolutely STUNNING! Much Love and Best Wishes to you and Jim from all of the staff here at CICC!

    Delicious Food,Great Service

    The team at CNC catering did a great job at our wedding. Guests loved the food and felt well taken care of when it came to level of service. It was delicious and I wish I could’ve eaten more on my big day (if I didn’t have to wear a tight white dress I would have :P). Would highly recommend this company for catering for your event.

    Events By Show Stoppers has planned numerous catered events in both Sedona, the Phoenix area and beyond. Many of our events involve high-profile clients that are accustomed to nicer things. Creations in Cuisine has always been our caterer of choice. Not only is their cuisine delicious beyond belief but, as designers, presentation is a huge factor in our events. Frank and Tony hit the mark every single time. We never feel we have to supervise or worry about the service they provide. The quality of service just cannot be surpassed. Team members are attentive, courteous and aware of every detail and spot potential issues before they even occur. Any last minute changes and challenges have always been met with sensible solutions and prompt attention. In terms of value, for the level of service they provide, their experience, talent and quality make working with Creations In Cuisine a must for a successful and memorable experience. events By Show Stoppers has always appreciated the level of expertise and cooperative nature of everyone at Creations In Cuisine.

    We utilized Creations in Cuisine Catering for multiple events on our wedding weekend. The entire staff was professional to work with and the food was amazing. We had so many compliments on the food and service that it was incredible. Our Catering Event Coordinator, Carrie was professional and a appreciated support piece throughout the planning process and our weekend. When rain created last minute changes to our venue, it was Carrie taking the lead to make sure that we had everything we needed for a successful event. Our Catering Captain Jade and her team provided excellent customer service to our guest through out the weekend. We simply can not say enough positive things about our experience with this company. We will definitely utilize their services in the future.

    We used Creations in Cuisine Catering for our daughters post wedding celebration at Desert Botanical Gardens. I received a phone call almost immediately from Carrie asking specifics on our vision. After that she worked with us until everything was covered from A-Z, alway a phone call away for any questions or concerns. The food was beyond fantastic and our guest couldn't stop saying how much they enjoyed it. The staff was very professional and attentive to our need. In this day of emails etc, it was a pleasure to work with a real person. Great job and thank you Carrie for all your help making it happen!
