Planning perspective
What to consider before reaching out
A strong first conversation is about fit, not just availability. Share your date, approximate guest count, location, and the feeling you want the day to have. Ask what is included, what typically changes the final quote, and what decisions need to be made earliest.
For a catering partner, confirm how communication works, who will be present on the day, and how the team handles changes. Pricing was not included in the supplied research, so request a current, itemized proposal directly from the business.

Blue Elephant catered my son’s wedding August 1, 2026. The venue we chose, River Winds Farm & Estate recommends them as their preferred caterer. Our son and fiancé went to a tasting a few months prior to the wedding and honestly weren’t sure about the food because it had been sitting in warming trays (that is my only negative). I spoke to Fausto, he was in charge of the catering, about this and I told him our concerns. He assured me that on the day of the wedding everything would be perfect - and it was. We chose a number of appetizers, the lobster rolls being one of them - they were so good! For dinner, the filet mignons were seasoned beautifully and cooked to a perfect medium rare and the ...

Reuben, Riley, and Fausto from Blue Elephant were instrumental in making our wedding reception a success. Their staff was incredibly helpful setting up the space and we received numerous compliments from guests on how attentive the staff was during dinner. Everyone has been raving about how delicious the cocktail hour spread was, we have gotten nothing but positive feedback about our food. All the Blue Elephant team was kind and so involved in bringing our vision of the tent space to life. We cannot recommend them enough.

We worked with Blue Elephant Catering for our wedding and would highly recommend them! From planning out our hors d'oeuvres and entrees to the wonderful menu tasting event, they were professional, accommodating and kind. We suggested an hors d'oeuvre that was not on their menu and they brought that idea to life! We even had a menu mishap later on due to website errors collecting people's selections and they were able to make the changes and additions very last minute. The servers during our reception gave extra attention to me and my husband, being sure we tried every hors d'oeuvres and always had a drink in our hand. Their team went above and beyond staging our raw bar and desert table, bri...

We used Blue Elephant for our day of coordination and catering services. Both services were outstanding! Food was amazing and service was efficient and professional. Tony helped Ryan and I by making sure we were taken care of whether it was drinks or appetizers during cocktail hour or dancing her way out to the dance floor to make sure we were taken care of! Fausto’s day of coordination is top notch and I highly recommend! He understood our vision and made it very easy! From decor to set-up to take down Blue Elephant provides great service. Thank you all for making our day special!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Blue Elephant Events and Catering and Nicki, our fearless wedding planner. From start to finish, the entire experience was exceptional, and they truly went above and beyond to make our wedding day everything we had dreamed of and more. The food was absolutely phenomenal and received rave reviews from our guests. We heard over and over how delicious the appetizers were—and perhaps most impressively, they just kept coming! Guests loved the variety and abundance during cocktail hour, and the entrees were equally incredible. So many people commented that it was some of the best wedding food they had ever had. What stood out most, though, was the leve...
