Hi Ali,
I just wanted to say thank you to you and your wonderful staff for our lovely dinner that we had for the wedding on June 3rd at Lakeland Village. Your staff member was courteous and professional.

Regards,

November 2012 Laurie Smith Catered Rehearsal dinner

Ali, It was great to work with you and your team. Everything was perfect. The table looked beautiful withe the covered servers and the nice utensil holder on it. The polenta was delicious and the antipasto was a great variety. Everything on the main course was so good and hot. The meatballs were so tender, we just finished them last night and they were still good! Everyone loved the shrimp too. The bread was very good and broiled perfectly. We all thought the salad was yummy too. The staff were very efficient and keput us on time, yet they were flexible since the bride and groom were late. They really cleaned up and left everything so nice. I appreciated that they packaged up the food for us and they cut up and plated te dessert bars. I couldn't have done it without your staff. Thank you, Laurie Smith.

November 2012 Johan & Linda (parents of Carien as per below)

We had a great experience at the Blue Angel Loft for our daughter wedding recently. We worked with Ali on coordinating the wedding ceremony and reception. Everything turned out beautiful and our family had a wonderful time. The set up wa just beautiful and ceremony was lovely. After the ceremony the bar was open for all to enjoy and the room was quickly transformed for the dinner reception. The food was amazing, the music wonderful and we had such a great time. Plenty of room for dancing too. Thank-you Rosie and Ali for making this special occassion so wonderful. We will have some fond memories of this special day thanks to you both! If you are planning a wedding or special event....I highly recommend the Blue Angel Loft. It is private and the perfect setting to have a great event.

Novemer 2012 Carien & Chris

Best wishes Carien & Chris

October 2012 Alice Long Catered Event

Hi Ali, My daughter's wedding and reception was just wonderful. Hard to fathom that just 9 days later our lawn would be covered with a foot of snow. The staff, Rosie, Dan & Kat were exceptional. They were patient and professional. The food was fresh and delicious. Thanks again, Alice Long, Mother of the Bride

September 2012 Bridget & Dave - Camp Richardson

Blue Angel Café catered the wedding and was featured on the OnTheGoBride.com blog.

September 2012 Steven & Jenna Valhalla

Dear Ali,

Jenna and I wanted to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all your amazing support and assistance you offered us to make our day special. When Jenna and I first met you, we knew we were in good hands with you and that this process was going to be easy. We appreciate your love, professionalism, honesty, passion for the business and your laid back personality. Our wedding was a hit because of you!

Every little detail with the food was incredible, and exactly as you described. We have been to many wedings and the food we had at our wedding was by far the most amazing meal ever!!!! We had many guests compliment on the way the food was prepared and the amazing flavors and variety. Not one of our guests was displeased and that makes us happy.

Ali, your experience in the catering business made things simple and easy for us. Your consistency was greatly appreciated, but most your easy going personality and willingess to help us was the most important part in making this process for us stress free. We can't wait to have another event for you to help us cater and are excited to come by the restaurant to enjoy lunch or dinner.

Love Steven & Jenna

August 2012 Holly Burke - Wedding Wire Review

Everyone at Blue Angel was great! Ali is wonderful to work with, and is genuinely interested in helping and making you feel relaxed. The food was delicious - my guests went back fro many platters of the ribs, and it never ran out. Everything was perfect. The servers were great - they made sure that everyone ate (including my cousin who was the photographer - going so far as bringing her a plate since she was so busy!). I would highly recommend Blue ANgel to any bride, especially an out of town bride!

August 2012 Victoria - Wedding Wire Review

We chose the Blue Angel 'Loft' for our destination wedding reception and the setting was perfect! Ali, who helped us organize and plan the event was so very able to answer all of our questions and most of all helped us have a stress-free, amazing, and fun wedding celebration. The reception space was very organized, clean, decorated with lights, linens correct colors and ready for us at the time we requested. We selected the Italian Buffet and could not have been more pleased with the outcome, everyone loved the food-many had seconds! We highly recommend the Blue ANgel Cafe and cannot wait to go back

August 2012 Peter Tory Dinner in Blue Angel Loft

We had a wonderful dinner last Tuesday. Food was great and service was excellent. Price was right on! Thanks so much for making our event a success. We'll be back next time we are in Tahoe. Peter

July 2012 Abby Crystal

Hi Ali, The dinner was FABULOUS! Everyone raved about the food and the portions were so generous we were able to have a second meal the next day. Everything was so fresh and I loved the little touches, like having the framed printed menu, very classy. I was also very impressed with the presentation of the food and the promptness of the service. Our family has already decided to make this an annual gathering and we will definitely use The Blue Angel Cafe to cater at least one of our meals. I can't wait to visit the restaurant the next time I'm in Tahoe. Thank you for helping me make our celebratory dinner so special. You and your staff were wonderful to work with. Abby

June 2012 Alena Killpack

Hi Ali, Thank-you for everything. The food was absolutely wonderful. It was enjoyed by everybody. I was shocked at how good the salmon turned out. For some reason I expected it to be slightly over-cooked, but it was tender and perfect. The salad was another big hit.

Thanks for the great service

April 2012 Candice (Yelp)

Blue Angel recently catered our April Lake Tahoe wedding, and our experience with Ali and her team wa phenomenal. They were straightforward, on time, no muss, no fuss, and very reasonably priced. The food is excellent, they have a good beer selection, and they were overall just a solid pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend them!

March 2012 Erica Burdette (weddingwire.com)

I cannot describe how perfect my day was because of Blue Angel, we had our ceremony and reception the Banquet Loft, we were able to go in the day before for a rehearsal and to decorate the space. The staff was absolutely amazing, they did the changeover from ceremony to reception in what seemed like seconds, while we were taking pictures. The professionalsm and courtesy was unparalleled, both by Ali, the manager, and the two waitresses we had therewere absoultly delightful. Everything look beautiful and it was exactly the way we wanted it. The food was delicious and we got a ton of compliments, especially of the salmon. I cannot say enough things about how it went. The whole thing went off seamlessly.

January 2012 Danika Anderson

Hi Ali, The wedding was amazing!! Thank you so much for all your help. Your location was absolutely perfect for us and our guests really enjoyed themselves. Thank you again formaking our day perfect and special forever.

Thanksgiving 2011

We loved the Thanksgiving dinner. Everything was amazing and super yummy. Our friends also agree that it was the best we’ve done together yet (cooking ourselves, whole foods etc). Thank-you. I hope you continue the tradition. It was worth every penny.

Maya Creedman & James Ho

April, Elements Day Spa

Everyone loved the food. Thanks again and I'm sure I'll be in touch in the future!

lake tahoe destination wedding by blue angel weddings cateringNovember 2011 :: Sharon & Jerry - Blue Angel Loft

Jerry and I just loved celebrating our wedding reception at the Blue Angel. We are from Ohio and visit Lake Tahoe at least once a year. Since seeing the Loft in 2007, our dream was that when we got married we would have the reception at the Blue Angel. What a beautiful place, from the linen tablecloths and table settings, to the lightening, to the cupcake table and the appetizer setup. And wow to mention the food, we chose the Italian Buffet and what a buffet. The linquine, the rigatonni, the meat balls and carved chicken, the ceasar salad and mixed zuccini vegetables and the garlic bread, everyone could not compliment enough on how fresh all the food was. The atmosphere how beautiful and romantic with the lights and once it became dark outside.

We chose to use the Blue Angel sound system along with our Ipod and the music was wonderful, everyone danced. The Wi-Fi wireless service was another plus, since we are from Ohio some of our friends and of course Mom and Dad (who could not be with us) were able to celebrate back home via Skype.

The bar was wonderful serving up soda, beer, wine and coffee, we also loved that Rosie and Kat never missed a beat when guests needed a water glass filled.

One more comment we'd like to make, although the wedding was planned from Ohio to California using email and phone eveything turned out WONDERFUL and never did we feel a bother sending emails or making phone calls to Ali the coordinator. Each time she made us feel welcome and comfortable that everything would work out just as we planned.

Thanks so much for everything, Sharon & Jerry

Hi Ali, We were so impressed with the way our wedding turned out! The weather was perfect, we couldn't have wished for a better ceremony location and the reception hall turned out to be pleasantly cozy. The staff was very attentive and friendly, and the food was outstanding. All of our guests and family raved about what a great time they had!

Oh, and Thran's Flowers turned out amazing! I've attached pictures for you. Thank you for all your patience, advice, and help throughout this process! You were great as well and we couldn't have done it without you!

Thanks again!! Shannon

janice aaron lake tahoe wedding loft receptionOctober 2011 :: Janice & Aaron - Blue Angel Loft

Hi Ali, Everything went fabulously at the wedding! All of the gals were so great and provided excellent service. The food was really good (people raved about the crab cakes) and everyone had a blast. I wish you could have heard the band - you’ll definitely need to put them on your preferred vendor list. Niall is fabulous and the music provided a really lively feeling all night. They are called The New World Jazz Project. My son sat in and received an ovation of sorts; even the band’s drummer was amazed.

Thanks again for everything Ali! ~ Janice

October 2011 :: Brad & Merry Thacker - Blue Angel Loft

10/01/2011 YELP REVIEW | Brad & Merry’s Wedding
Ceremony: Lakeshore Lodge Beach
Spa Reception: Blue Angel Loft

Ali, Brad and I would like to thank you for working with us on our special day. You and your staff did such a great job catering our wedding. We would definitely recommend your services to anyone.

The food was delicious, Brad and I enjoyed it. Our guests enjoyed the food and they were impressed with everything. We all had a great time. The loft is a beautiful place, the décor and set up was all great. The reception was fantastic, and a definition of perfect.  We could not have asked for a better place, it went well beyond our expectations. Your staff was amazing and they were so friendly. Please extend a very warm thanks to them on behalf of Brad and me.  

Sincerely, Mr. And Mrs Bradley Thacker

October 2011 :: Stanford Bio Motion Meeting - Lakeland Village

Hi Ali, I just wanted to touch base to say everything exceeded our expectations. Blue Angel is by far the best caterer we have worked with in Tahoe. I look forward to working with you in the future.

September 2011 :: Jude & Merrick - Round Hill Pines Ceremony & Blue Angel Loft Reception YELP REVIEW

We chose Blue Angel Weddings as we wanted a simple but beautiful ceremony and a friendly, warm and fun environment for the reception; we couldn't have chosen better. Ali immediately put us at ease and presented a range of options that were less expensive than many other venues we'd talked with but offered so much more in terms of organization and options. I am vegetarian and we have vegan guests. Ali and Rosie allowed us to modify the menus and do special meals for our vegans. They even invited my family for a free wine tasting the day before to ensure the wines we had chosen met with approval!

Many wedding venues insist that you follow their schedule but Ali completely let us design our day how we wanted it and just gave the gentlest of guidance when necessary.

We opted for a beach wedding at Round Hill Pines followed by a reception in the Blue Angel loft. Both venues were perfect. The beach despite being a State Park was quiet and private and the set-up was gorgeous. The loft is a beautiful space and with the vaulted ceilings and great natural light is a perfect wedding venue. The decorations were simple and sophisticated and there was plenty of space for dining and later dancing.

We chose a menu from the wedding buffet options - though we could have gone a la carte had we wished - and highly recommend both the beef and the salmon. All our guests commented how good it was and despite being in my wedding dress I had seconds!!

One of the other lovely things about using the Blue Angel was that we supported not just that local business but others. Ali works with Thrans (who made us the most incredible bouquet) and the cake cutting fee is waived if you use Sugar Pine Bakery (our wedding cake was out of this world!). As part of the SLT community we were pleased to use local businesses for everything.

The Blue Angel staff - from Ali, Rosie, Kat and all the team are incredible. You won't meet warmer or kinder people and they really go out of their way to put you at your ease and to ensure that your day is special.

If you are looking for an incredibly special but still very affordable option for your wedding in SLT then you should look no further.

September 2011 :: Leah & Chad - Lakeland Village

Chad and I would like to thank you for the amazing job you and your team did at our wedding. The food was amazing and the members of your team were excellent! We could not have done it without you and feel so fortunate to have worked with you.

Love always, Chad & Leah 9/4/11

September 2011 :: Christina & Joel - Picchetti Winery

Ali, I can't thank you and your staff enough for making our wedding absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for all your help and support. We were really worried about the weather, but decided to stay at the Picchetti hoping that the weather would cooperate, but as you know it didn't. Your staff made a beautiful reception with limited space happen. It was amazing! And they were so sweet! Please extend a very warm thanks to them on behalf of Joel and I.

On another note, the food was absolutely amazing!!!! Our guests can't stop raving about it! It was absolutely delicious! Thank you again!

September 2011 :: Brianna & Anthony - Inn by the Lake

Thank you for all the hard work you and the staff put into our reception. You made the catering the least stress full things we did. Everyone enjoyed the food.

Thank you,
Brianna & Anthony

August 2011 :: Jen Shelnutt - Round Hill Pines

Thank-you so much for doing such a stellar job catering our wedding! As the bride, I didn't get to eat much beyond the delicious appetizers, but all of our guests RAVED about both the food and the service. You guys were amazing. Not only was the food tasty and presentation outstanding ("that flank steak was off the hook," "loved that fully stocked mashed potato bar" etc), but from bringing us a breakfast plate the morning of the wedding, to bringing the wedding party drinks and appetizers during our photo shoot (and even throwing in an extra appetizer for wedding party?), to going on a hunt for out of the normal items (baby wipes), you guys repeatedly went above and beyond the call of duty. I cannot think of a single piece of constructive criticism. We would highly recommend Blue Angel Catering to anyone!

The Entertainer also did a fantastic job - you guys should definitely hook up!

Warmest Regards, Jen

August 2011 :: Karin & Michael McGuffey - Lakeside Beach Ceremony, Blue Angel Loft

Hi Ali! It was such a pleasure having you to help us with the wedding!! You were wonderful & made everything run smooth & easy. The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and everything went perfectly. The reception was also beautiful, the staff at blue angel loft is amazing... From the couple of times we stopped in to check everything out to the big night! The 2 girls that worked with us that night were amazing!!! They were very friendly, polite & took great care of us. It was truly the best day of our lives & we're so happy & thankful we found you, lakeside beach & the blue angel loft! We will definitely be back to the blue angel cafe in the future and can't thank you enough for all of your help!

Again, thank you so very much!!!

Sincerely, Karin & Michael McGuffey

August 2011 :: Ellen Moss - Picchetti Winery

Thanks again,
Richy & Cici

July 2011 :: Alex & Lena - The Blue Angel Loft

We really enjoyed using the loft for our rehearsal dinner. It was a great casual venue for the low key event we wanted. We liked that it was simply decorated and came with a speaker system so that we didn't need to do much to get it ready for our guests. The food was delicious.

One thing we really really appreciated was your organized planning process! Since we planned everything in our wedding ourselves, it was nice to know that all the rehearsal dinner details were taken care of easily and ahead of time.

We look forward to stopping by the cafe whenever we're up in Tahoe.

Thanks again!

-Alex and Lena

lake tahoe wedding packages testimonialsJuly 2011 :: Lisa & Sean

We just recently got married in South Lake Tahoe and Blue Angel was our Caterer. However to call them just a caterer would be doing an injustice! During our year of wedding planning we were faced with economic bumps along the road. The most significant was the change of management/policies of our off site reception venue we had secured. Due to this change at the last minute there were unexpected costs and planning in our laps. I called Blue Angel and they helped to calm me down and they told me they would take care of it and they did! They got in contact with the new management of the facility and worked together with them to make sure our day was perfect. They really went above and beyond! Not only was the food and service fabulous, but Ali & Roie made us feel comfortable and assured the whole time. Whenever I had any questions about anything I called the Blue Angel. They really know what they are doing. They gave me answers and guidance every step of the way. When it came to the day of, they followed the time line and helped keep things moving just as we wanted. We paid a little extra to have them set up all our centerpeices, favors, and decorations and they did a fabulous job! Several of our guests mentioned how impressed they were with the flavor of the dishes as well as the presentation of everything. Working with Blue Angel was almost like have a wedding planner. They work with several busisnesses in the area and have good relationships with all of them. In fact we used several of their preferred vendors and were very pleased. We would definitely use their services again as well as recommend them highly to anyone! Thank you for making our day truly magical!

Sincerly, Lisa & Sean Dunn

July 2011 :: Kristi Hogan - Picchetti Winery

Thank you for your fantastic help before and the day of the wedding.

The catering was fantastic and your Rosie your server was fantastic. Everyone loved the food (the salmon turned out to be very popular) and my brother said the corn muffins in particular "rocked". I have to agree; I even took a few back to the hotel for breakfast the next day.

We also met up with Sue Novasel our wedding coordinator at the cafe the day before, where we had lunch. The food at the cafe was also great. We look forward to coming back the next time we visit Tahoe (possibly for our first anniversary).

Best Regards, Kristi

My boss was so impressed we will be using your company for all local events in the Tahoe/Reno area. Thank you so much for all your help, understanding and patience!

May 2011 :: Temple Bat Yam Wine Fundraister - Blue Angel Loft

It was a wonderful evening. Everybody had such a good time. My entire purpose was to get people to socialize and that really happened. The food was terrific and having Lindsay there and Felix plus with the chef being so helpful right from the beginning, it was really great and I got to enjoy myself as well. Meanwhile, the music was really terrific and if you need to recommend music to a client, I would certainly recommend Randy Harwick. His trio "Cool Water" pluy at the Fresh Ketch and he also is a DJ with all his own equipment. He knows his stuff and is most accommodating. I look forward to working with you again. Please send my regards to Rosie. Best regards, Michelle

May 2011 :: Megan & Scott - Lakeland Village Wedding Reception Catering

Hi Ali. We wanted to thank you and Blue Angel (BA) staff for making our son's wedding (Scott Brown & Megan Redeen) an even greater event than we envisioned.

They were punctual, focused, helpful, and glided throughout the reception with great poise and organization. We will be sure to recommend your firm for future events.

The food was outstanding! Very tasty and perfectly prepared. Awesome! Everyone had a favorite dish or dishes.

Thank you again,

Michael & Cathy Brown

Thank you SO much for hosting the Chamber's China Mixer last night! Your new venue is beautiful and all your staff were on point - not to mention the delicious food & beverage. I think it provided great exposure for the new Blue Angel Chateau at Heavenly, as I'm sure you'll have many repeat visitors from last night once the restaurant is open to the public. And it was nice to see you as always!
Thanks again

September 2010 :: Christina & Phillip - Lakeside Beach & the Blue Angel Loft

Dear Ali & The Blue Angel Staff, First off thank you so much for all of your help the past 6 months in making our day that much more fluid and special We can't tell you how much we appreciate everything. We love Tahoe and plan on being up here every weekend (like every year) as soon as the snow comes. We will definitely stop by the Blue Angel. Thanks again The Guzmans

Christina's YELP REVIEW
My husband and I got married through the Blue Angel Cafe. I can't remotely describe how wonderful the Blue Angel staff was from the moment we began planning to the reception. We chose all of our other vendors (DJ, photographers, baker, florist, and day spa) based on their recommendations. To sum it up in one word, all of them were AMAZING!

Brides- If you want to get married in Tahoe, I highly recommend getting married through them. Fantastic customer service, ideal setting/location, cost effective, and FUN!

Thank you Rosie, Ali, and all of the other Blue Angel teammates that made our wedding day so easy, fluid, fun, and unforgettable!!

PS- The meatballs, salad, pasta, and friendly staff were a HUGE hit! I'm still getting feedback from our guests.

Thanks again!

September 2010 :: Ben & Krista - Private Home Wedding Reception Catering

Thank you so much for your dedication & hard work through the craziest rainstorm we've ever witnessed that changed our wedding plans in an instant! Your willingness to get soaking wet & do anything meant our Wedding Day turned out beautifully, despite the potential down-pour disaster.

The food was amazing as was the presentation - but it was your attitudes, your smiles and your company that meant the most to us. Thank you so much!

 

September 2010 :: Christina & Phil

Hi Ali - Thank you so much for everything! Yesterday went SO unbelievably well. Thank you for all of your time, energy and effort in making our special day so FANTASTIC!

Blue Angel was so easy to work with. It was as if we had a wedding planner and caterer in one. Your staff was so helpful and flexible. Even when it started raining/hailing (not the
best weather :-)), they were outside making sure everyone had what they needed. We could not have asked more in a caterer. The food was outstanding! People were going back for thirds :-) Thanks again! Julia

August 2010 :: Kayli Sprague

Blue Angel Catering handled so much of our wedding, and we were blown away by how professional and perfect everything was. Our wedding ran smoothly because of your professionalism and ability to grasp exactly what we wanted. The timing was perfect, and our guests thoroughly enjoyed the entire affair. Because of our venue choice (Valhalla in South Lake Tahoe) Blue Angel had to set up for the ceremony, then move everything out and set up for the reception in the same room, with only a short period of time to do so. The details and execution of this transition were astounding; I wouldn't have changed a thing, and everyone knows how picky brides can be! The food was delicious, and we received compliments on it throughout the event and afterward. Blue Angel Catering helped make our wedding absolutely perfect. All I can say is thank you so much, and you will forever be a part of the best day of our lives!

August 2010 :: Robin Greenlee

We had an amazing time at our wedding! Thank you and your staff SO much for helping it all come together!! The food was absolutely amazing!! We got so many compliments from our guests. My husband and I both LOVE your homeade smokey alfredo sauce. I was joking to him when we first did the tasting about buying a jar from you guys... but if you could sell me a jar, please let me know! The food was very delicious, there's nothing I would change at all.

We had an amazing time. The food and staff were great! As regulars of the Tahoe area, we will absolutely be stopping by your restuarant on one of our upcoming trips! Thanks!!

June 2010 :: Denise B YELP REVIEW

My husband and I had our reception at the Blue Angel's loft. It was perfect! We had a very small reception- 20 people. Rosie did a perfect job helping us select a menu to fit our budget, a seating arrangement, etc. We decided on a fruit plate appetizer, a antipasto plate appetizer (SOOOOO YUMMY!), cash bar (very decent prices!), and the build your own pasta bar. The choices our guests had were wonderful- penne or linguine, chicken or meatballs, alfredo or marinara... plus outstanding garlic bread, caesar salad and the fixings....great food, great price, great presentation and TONS of food for our guests.

I had designed my own centerpieces, and they set them up with no problems. The room is gorgeous and private- airy, pretty, elegant yet still has the "Tahoe" feel. The atmosphere was perfect!

Thank you Blue Angel! Thank you Ali for the help and thank you Rosie for organizing it all and serving at the reception! We will definitely be back for meals when we are in Tahoe again!!

May 2010 :: Nicole Donnel

Rosie and Ali, I just wanted to write you and tell you thank you for everything you did for my May 29th Reception.

We had such a blast at our wedding! Cat was wonderful, so helpful, and a lot of fun too. The food was delicious and got a lot of compliments. I'm so impressed with you guys - we had our rehearsal dinner at the restaurant and both experiences were perfect; you are all very much on top of things, so thanks to everyone there for removing any source of food related worry from our wedding weekend.

Karen's YELP Review -

A great place to just have dinner, but also a wise choice for events. For my recent wedding, we had our rehearsal dinner at the cafe, then the next night Blue Angel catered our reception. All of our experiences there, from the early planning stages through the reception, were superb. The staff is wonderful, so helpful, and a lot of fun too. The food was delicious and got a lot of compliments (also Blue Angel is very vegan/vegetarian savvy). Everyone was so impressed with the service; the staff is very on the ball. The Blue Angel crew removed any source of food related worry from our wedding weekend. Highly recommended!

June 2010 :: Cat & Dan

To all the Blue Angels... We can't thank you enough for ALL of the meals prepared for our wedding weekend - from Miranda presenting our Thai-inspired rehearsal dinner aboard the "Safari Rose" to shopping at the So. Lake Tahoe - Farmer's Market for our Summer Soltice Wedding. Two wonderful years later Uncle Henry is still talking about the heirloom tomatoes and wild Halibut. We were relaxed and happy. I would love to do it all again. Thank you.
