Doesn't respond promptly (3 weeks) we had very simple questions and desires and they would take multiple weeks to respond and then lie and try and say that we were the ones not responding even though the email chain spoke for itself. They were very rude and consistently went back on things they said they offered. A TRULY TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE.

We had encountered Blue Ridge Catering a number of times before our wedding, so when it came time to choose a caterer for our wedding, we didn't even bother entertaining the idea of anyone else doing our wedding. For the day itself, our event team was FANTASTIC. The coordinators did a great job making sure everything ran smooth on their side. The wait staff really took the fancy-meter up a notch.
The bartenders were quick and efficient and fun. The food was absolutely, 100% on point (I have never had a single bad bite from them). Before the event, BRC did a great job of keeping in touch with us and making sure we knew our options. We had a misunderstanding that was figured out right before the wedding, and they worked diligently with us to find a positive solution. My words can't do justice to how pleased my new wife and I were to have chosen them. I would highly recommend that Blue Ridge Catering do your wedding (or any event).

To be honest, we didn't "choose" Blue Ridge Catering. It is a requirement of our venue, the Taubman Museum of Art. HOWEVER. You. Cannot. Go. Wrong. Their food is delicious, no questions asked. We had numerous reports throughout the night from guests that we served the best wedding food they had ever had. So, while a bit on the pricier side, you definitely get quality.

Blue Ridge Catering provided the appetizers and buffet for my wedding a few weeks ago and I was wowed by every aspect of the experience, Greg made sure all of our needs were met and made everything run exceptionally smoothly. They went above and boyond with the service and even fixing my table arrangements when the wind had picked up. The appetizers and buffet food were all very delicious and he made sure that the wedding party was fed while we took photos after the ceremony. Highly recommend them and their team for any event!

My husband and I were recently exposed to your company through the Boys and Girls Clubs "Undinner". Wow! were we blown away. This 4 course dinner was unbelievable delicious and gorgeous. We also felt like it was a great value. Thank you for an incredibly luxurious dinner for 2 at home.
