Bell's Family Catering

A perfect setting for your next special occasion

by Karen Fetter

If you are looking for a special, unique setting for your upcoming wedding or special occasion then you must consider Bell's Family Catering.  Located in Mount Pleasant on the corner of Route 31 and Route 982, this restored 100-year-old dairy barn makes guests feel like they are in a palace.  With eleven French crystal chandeliers descending from a spacious, vaulted ceiling that hangs above elegant table settings is a touch that many brides dream of for their wedding day.  Step back in time and prepare to be entertained in an atmosphere of unique romance.
 
"We offer a variety of services to our brides such as upgrades, special linens, decorating help, and advice on DJs, photographers, flowers," said Bonnie Bell, partner and pastry chef.  "Our vision is one of unparalleled customer service. A professional, attentive staff is ready to help you enjoy your special occasion in elegance and style. We give brides the confidence and peace of mind they need to enjoy the most important day of their lives."
 
And the food, of course, is nothing less than extraordinary.  Each dish is homemade by classically trained, Executive Chef, Don Bell.  He has contributed his efforts to some of the finest establishments in Western Pennsylvania, including Nemacolin Woodlands Resort.  Now as part of his own family-owned enterprise, Chef Bell has been inspired to bring even greater levels of culinary accomplishment to our wedding menu. 
 
"You want nothing less than the best, not a chaotic event where foods run low and costs spiral out of control.  And you won't find such disappointments here.  Bell's Family Catering is known for our personal touch.  We give brides the confidence and peace of mind they need to enjoy the most important day of their lives," said Bonnie.
 
The wedding hall is also the restaurant.  Famous locally for exceptional steak and sea choices, Bell's Steak & Sea House can be enjoyed for dinner and special occasions with friends.  There are also lofts that are available for reservation that can accommodate up to 30 people.

"Bell's Family Catering is a locally owned, family run business, serving our neighbors, friends, and the communities in which we live.  Our vision is to provide the finest food, the most supportive environment possible, and a uniquely attractive facility.  All at a fair and affordable price," said Bonnie.
 
"No one is like family but our staff is so wonderful that they feel like family," said Bonnie. 
 
In 2003, exactly 100 years after its construction, the property was purchased by Beverly and Bob Collins, who were soon joined in partnership by their daughter Bonnie and her husband and award winning Chef Don Bell. 
 
"We get many of our event catering clients from casual visitors to the restaurant who are simply overwhelmed with the rustic beauty and the elegance of our crystal chandeliers.  It is truly a unique and romantic place.  They ask 'Do you ever hold events here?'  We are glad to say we do." said Beverly Collins, Party Coordinator.  Below are some of the special wedding packages that are offered.
