Owner

We believe in fresh, beautiful, unfussy but delicious food. We believe in real, honest to goodness hospitality and service. And the combination of the two? Well, we think that’s pure magic. A wedding reception. A celebration of love. Of family, friendship; strong bonds, new beginnings. The start of beautiful memories, and lives just begun. As we do with all of our catering, we take the utmost care to find out what your vision is for your wedding day. We love food. Like, really love food. And as long as you’re passionate about the food you serve at your wedding, you’re in the right place.

Traditional or completely unique to you - we love to rise to the challenge of bringing your vision to life. From a simple, elegant seasonal dinner under the stars for a small intimate reception, to a grand reception at a fine art museum for hundreds, we’ve got your day covered with amazing food, impeccable service, and staff that go above and beyond, from the first chair set to the last glass cleared.

    WOW. I would give 10 stars if I could!! Karen and SKBT were absolutely AMAZING!!! They created an entirely gluten and nut free menu for our wedding day! Not only was the food absolutely amazing (that's not just our opinion - all of our guests raved about the food), the entire team was amazing. They made sure my husband and I had enough to eat and brought us water and drinks throughout the night. They were so lovely to work with and Karen was especially kind, flexible, and understanding with every curveball our venue threw at us. Our experience was absolutely amazing and I would recommend SKBT to anyone!! We love you guys so much!!

    We wish we could give SKBT 1000 stars! This company, the owner Karen, and her staff are ABSOULTELY incredible! For our small outdoor wedding, I am still very concerned about COVID and her staff was so considerate to keep their masks on the entire time (both inside and outside in the heat). The staff was so incredibly kind and attentive. They made me feel SO special on my day, bringing me extra appetizers and sneaking me an extra spoonful of their delicious chocolate mousse! They were so incredibly professional and offered to help with tasks that were not even in their job description (like loading up drink coolers and putting out desserts we had purchased). They truly went above and beyond! It is clear Karen is close with her staff, because they all have such a positive demeanor that was contagious and really kept things upbeat! And the food- INCREDIBLE! I am so picky when it comes to food and my husband has food allergies. We needed everything to be gluten free, and SKBT was so attentive and considerate of these restrictions. The flavor and presentation of the food was AMAZING! My husband and I ended up eating our own meal and splitting one (I am obsessed with Karen's cauliflower steak!) I was SO full from the night because everything from the appetizers, to the meal, to the desserts was impeccable. Really the most delicious food I've ever had! The night of our wedding and most of the next day, 90% of the conversation with my husband and our family was about SKBT and how incredibly delicious their food was and their amazing service. We plan on ordering from SKBT for any function we have in the future, as well as on our anniversary every year (and dinners in between!) We are sad that our wedding is over, but are SO looking forward to using SKBT again in the future. Karen is truly a gem- she is INCREDIBLY talented, is so kind, and it is clear she dedicates her all to SKBT. We are so thankful to have had this catering company for our wedding- they truly made the day that much more special and the day would not have been the same without them! Thank you Karen and your amazing staff, you really made our wedding a day we will never forget! :)

    We hired SKBT for our wedding and despite postponing the wedding due to covid and making several changes, Karen and her team handled everything remarkably! Her food and presentation is incredible, and she is willing to work within your budget. Her food is outstanding, and all of our guests loved it!
