There aren't enough words to describe how grateful we are to Lexi and her staff at the Blue Heron. We planned our wedding in 2 months and we never felt one ounce of stress because Lexi had it all under control. She guided us to exactly what we were looking for and allowed us to do what we wanted. Lexi played a huge role in making our day so perfect. Even a few days after, I had to pick up a few things, the staff was so helpful and truly went above and beyond to help me out. We couldn't imagine our wedding anywhere else. All of our guests talked about how beautiful the venue was and how much they loved the food. We never did a food tasting because we didn't care to, so this was a pleasant surprise to hear from our guests.Lexi is the sweetest and most genuine person. Her expertise on weddings was an added bonus! Again, thank you to everyone at the Blue Heron for making our day better than we could have ever imagined.We would be happy to talk to anyone who has questions regarding our experience because we don't want anyone to miss out on a wonderful opportunity to host an event at the Blue Heron!!

We got married this Friday at The Blue Heron at Blackthorn. Hands down, this was a FIVE Star event. From the initial meeting all the way to leaving the venue after the wedding was absolutely perfect. Lexi was so professional and listened to all of our requests and visions. She and her staff delivered an amazing evening that was stress free. Her involvement behind the scenes, during the wedding and, reception ensured perfection. To be honest, at first when I heard the price, I questioned if it was worth it. I would pay what we paid and more now knowing how perfect the day was and the quality they delivered. Thank you for giving us the most wonderful wedding ever! The Whitmans ?

I had my wedding on Saturday at the The Blue Heron. There is so many GREAT things I can say about this venue!! From them setting up, tearing down, having both ceremony and reception on site, a ton of food and drink options! Lexi was AMAZING to work with! She was understanding and cared about our big day!! Although I will not miss all of the planning… I will miss Lexi!!

A great place for family gatherings to celebrate any occasion.
Patty Henry
Drinks were very watered down...even the ginger ale. Clean and decorated tastefully. Wait staff was friendly and efficient. Acoustics were terrible for public speaking.

This venue is gorgeous! With an amazing golf course backdrop and elegant interior design. The venue staff were super kind and great to work with. I loved DJing here!
Rachael Stephens
Very tasteful & pretty. The entire [front of the house] staff was very courteous.
We had our reception at the Blue Heron on 8.6.22! It was a true fairy tale! I cannot wait to show more photos of the day and all the details! We had 240 people with plenty of space for dancing! Lexi is an absolute dream to work with and walked us through every step! Detailed timelines, food tasting, set up for the day- and was always super responsive to all my questions! She truly loves her job and all the couples she works with, it shows! The service was amazing and my guests are raving over the food! The Blue Heron was the perfect place to celebrate the start of our married life together and this venue is truly the whole package!AND they have the best Golden Hour of all time! Forever grateful for this venue, staff and magical day!

Great place, had great time. One suggestion would be to have some sort of area so guest would be in the sun.
