I can not recommend this location enough for any event. We got married here, and our 2020 wedding would not have happened with out Blue Heron. First Denise and her whole family and just wonderful people, so easy to work with and the food is just so so good. With all the stress of planning a 2020 wedding we kept coming back to "atleast the food with be good". We had actually planned for a different location (my dream barn wedding) and Blue Heron was catering. Well a month prior to our wedding (and this was already our rescheduled wedding) state mitigation would no longer allow the use of the barn. Denise ofcourse immediately offered their location. Which when we first began planning over a year ago was our other choice. I wish we would've picked it in the first place, because as soon as we swapped locations everything was effortless. There was so much stuff I had purchased for the other location that she already had and was included. They take care of everything and you can just come in and add what you like. Our wedding was beautiful. And for what you get it is a GREAT value. I will forever be thankful for Blue Heron and there is only love and happiness when I look back on that day, which is the best thing they gave us after what we put into it. I didn’t even miss the barn.

Blue Heron Events catered our wedding at DuCar Farm and I can’t say enough good things about them. We had a free tasting to try out their BBQ menu and had the best time. Denise was so helpful and even let us try more dishes than we had requested. Their professionalism is exceptional and the food is amazing. As we got closer to the wedding day, I emailed Courtney many times with different changes to the menu or rentals, and she was very quick to respond, quick to update the invoice, and helpful with all my questions. On the day of, they served our food and it was better than I remembered. People are still asking me to get the potato salad recipe for them!! I can’t recommend them-and their BBQ menu-enough. Professional, talented, kind people.

We used Blue heron even center for our reception. The staff was wonderful to work with, the food was excellent. they did everything they could to make sure our wedding day was perfect and in the end, it was! They let us use any decorations they had available with no extra charge. They set up and tore down everything. The whole day went smoothly thanks to them! I would refer them to anyone who needs a venue site or catering!

Now I understand there was a loss in the family and for that I am terribly sorry. That is very tough.

That being said, you are a business and have contracts to uphold.

I tried getting ahold of ANYONE from
Blue heron MANY MANY times, emails, phone calls, I even DROVE to greencastle to see if I could find anyone at the business during business hours and the parking lot was empty and all doors were closed. I then took to social media to beg anyone for information of how to reach someone from the business to talk about the contract that my bride, (I am the coordinator of a wedding) had made with you all. Nothing... after well over a month of attempted communications in VARIOUS forms, I thought okay, maybe what was said to be via facebook was true and the business had stopped operations due to the death of the owner.

I didn't throw a fit, though morally the business should have returned my brides security deposit....I frantically searched for and found a new caterer with very limited options this close to the wedding date.

Fast forward to 5 day before the wedding. My bride received a email asking her to confirm details for Saturday including menu and times.... after not hearing from you for months and months!

So I called the number on the email. Said we will no longer be needing their services and asked for the deposit back. Only to be met with a very rude man, Aaron, who stated "my family has been through a lot of shit, deposits are non refundable, bye" and HUNG UP ON ME.

I highly, HIGHLY recommend not doing business with from scratch/blue heron catering as the entire situation was handled unbelievably unprofessionally.

I do empathize with the family for their loss and hope they can get things back on track. Maybe without Aaron.
