We cannot say enough amazing things about Live Oak on Howe. From start to finish they were truly a five star catering team and played such a huge part in making our entire wedding weekend unforgettable.
They catered our rehearsal dinner, wedding reception and brunch the next day and every single meal was beyond exceptional. The food was not just delicious it was unforgettable. Our guests are still talking about it and many told us it was the best wedding food they have ever had.
One of the things that meant the most to us was the personalized experience. She sat with us and built a custom menu that fit our style and vision perfectly. Every detail felt thoughtful and intentional and the presentation was beautiful.
The service matched the quality of the food. The entire team was professional, warm and incredibly attentive. They were very accommodating with allergies and requests in the moment and handled everything with ease. Any time we needed something they were already there before we had to ask.
Live Oak on Howe delivers far more than great food. They deliver comfort connection and an experience your guests will remember forever. We are so grateful for them and would choose them again a thousand times over.

Bobbie and her team at Live Oak on Howe did an amazing job catering our wedding. The food was phenomenal and we had so many compliments from our guests. Bobbie and her team ensured each guest and our wedding party had just what we needed and circled the room constantly to ensure everyone's needs were met. The team was professional, polite and we highly recommend Bobbie for any catering event. Live Oak deserves more than 5 stars for going above and beyond!

Live Oak on Howe just catered my daughter’s wedding reception for 110 people. Bobbie was easy to work with, the presentation was beautiful, and the food was the BEST ! Flavorful…delicious…and totally gluten free so my daughter (celiac’s) could eat anything she wanted on her special day! I totally recommend this wonderful business!

I have worked with Live Oak on several occasions as I am a wedding photographer. I'm always asked to eat at the weddings and I can say the food is excellent! I've also gotten to know the friendly staff and watch how things are prepared backstage. They are a top notch group of professionals. You will be treated well.

Following a Celebration of Life service, we had a reception at Live Oak on Howe for about 50 people. Sean presented a delightful spread of appetizers. The buffet was beautifully presented from the pork loin, artichoke dip to the homemade pimento cheese; everything was delicious. The house was comfortable and cozy and allowed for easy mingling among the guests. The front porch and screened porch supplied extra room or the ability to get outside while enjoying the food, beer and wine. We also had a wonderful server who attended to every need of our the guests.

My wife and I were married at the Point on Oak Island this past Tuesday evening and had an intimate dinner reception afterwards for 25 people at Live Oak on Howe. We struggled for the better part of a year to find a venue in the area capable of accommodating a small weeknight reception, but due to the nature of beach rentals running from weekend to weekend, this made the most sense for us. All of the food was simply outstanding and very reasonably priced. I believe literally every guest at some point that night told my wife or myself how much they enjoyed it. Sean and Bobbi did a terrific job. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a venue to host an event.

Sean did an amazing job catering our daughters graduation party! He arrived promptly and set up everything for us. The guests raved about the food. Highly recommend!!!

Absolutely fabulous dinner with 24 family members and friends for my husband's birthday. Sean outdid himself with shrimp & grits dinners and with pork tenderloin dinners. Servers Bobbie and Kim were the best. HIghly recommend for that special occasion.

A friend recommended Live Oak on Howe for catering an intimate wedding weekend on Oak Island. The menu choices offered by owner Sean Muncy were very good and pricing is so reasonable. Our guests (24) LOVED every part of the meal, and Bobbi Blackmon set everything up for us to make this a totally stress-free event. Bobbi also baked a beautiful and delicious wedding cake. We highly recommend using Live Oak on Howe!

Sean and Bobbie are nothing short of magical. Given these crazy COVID times, my wedding was significantly downsized and we were in the market for a small, private venue for the dinner after my husband and my wedding ceremony. This place fit the bill in size and budget. The ambiance was amazing, the staff phenomenal and people have said the steak medallions were the best steak they’ve had ever. I also heard my guests say the cake was the best wedding cake they’ve had, but I’d go as far as to say it’s the best cake I’ve ever had. Both Sean and Bobbie worked with my egg intolerance (not easy for a wedding cake!) and everything was beyond words. Thank you Sean and Bobbie for making our wedding dinner one we’re not soon to forget!
