Terrific catering for our daughter's wedding in Arlington, VA at Hendry House. During the planning phase, my daughter was able to make changes to the menu easily. We saved money by purchasing alcohol ourselves, with Rocklands bartenders serving it along with their delicious homemade lemonade and ice tea--much appreciated on a hot June Day. Simple barbecue buffet was great for a Garden Party wedding. The barbecue beef and salmon were a great choice. Also especially loved mini jalapeño corn muffins. For dessert, along with cake from our own bakery, Rocklands served mini cupcakes, and finished off with the usual coffee, and pulled out an icecream pushcart serving a half dozen novelty ice creams--guests loved this refreshing end to a very hot day. Staff and servers all did their jobs professionally allowing us to enjoy the event. Thanks Rocklands!

Top notch, far exceeded expectations from start to finish. Provided valuable insight during wedding planning with value-added recommendations. Understood the pros and cons of the venue, knew how to make it our own. Made it a turn-key operation, no muss, no fuss, for the bride and her wedding party. Very flexible in response to potential inclement weather. Servers took care of the party and all attendees without being obvious. And did I mention that the food was outstanding?! I'd do it again with Rocklands in a heartbeat.

Rocklands' team was awesome. They were very helpful and informative in their menu choices and services. They were very flexible and patient with us while we continually changed our minds on what we wanted. The team that came out on our wedding day were amazing and helped us out tremendously. They went above and beyond making the day go much smoother, relieving lots of stress, and letting us focus on enjoying our wedding day.

One of the most fun wedding's I have photographed was catered by Rocklands. They brought the big smoker and the whole place smelled just like the couple wanted. People where so excited for the meal after smelling the amazing cooking. Ribs to die for. Pulled pork sandwiches dripping with great BQ Sauce. It made for an event not to be forgotten.

At the wedding last weekend, Katherine and Maurice were on top of every detail, from the moving of the dance floor to the special appetizer plate for the bride and groom. They were available to chat about timeline changes and were absolutely gracious all night long. And the wait staff, oh my goodness, they could not have been nicer. They felt like family. And, of course, the food was delicious!
