You NEED to hire 3Cs! If there is one thing that’s important and memorable for a wedding, it’s the food and 3Cs delivered! Our entire experience working with the owner John and his team was absolutely AMAZING, and we mean AMAZING! 3Cs was more than just a caterer for our wedding and the success of our wedding day was in large part thanks to their amazing staff. Not only did they cook such delicious food (we did buffet), their staff helped our venue do an entire room flip during cocktail hour (our ceremony and reception were held in the same room). John’s own son was the lead caterer on our wedding day and he made sure that everything went perfectly and it did (he even personally brought plates of food for my elderly grandparents who had difficulty getting in the buffet line)! We got so many compliments about the food and we really couldn't say enough about our experience and will be recommending them to all our friends and family!!!!

Food was a big priority for us when planning our wedding. We wanted it to be fun, delicious, and in budget. Creative Edge delivered on all of this and WAY more. They basically ended up acting as partial wedding planners for us, helping us lay out the flow of the evening, and helping us find ways of savings money where possible. Every detail was perfectly planned and executed. They dedicated a server to me and my husband for cocktails so that we could eat between chatting with guests and so our needs were met. They figured out how to do a wedding cake tower of banana pudding when we decided we didn't want a cake. I wish we could get married again so I could work with this team and eat their awesome food

This business is the perfect blend of both worlds, allowing her to be a stay-at-home mom while continuing to create memorable experiences for others.

The Grazing Pony made my shower so special with their bottomless cannoli! We loved that they were able to take our favorite desserts and turn them into creative cannoli flavors. It was such a unique twist and way more memorable than just setting out cupcakes. My guests are still talking about it, and it was the perfect sweet touch to the day!
