Catering and Event Services for Colleges and Universities

Columbia is known for higher education. Home to the University of Missouri, as well as private institutions, Stephens College and Columbia College, our universities and colleges draw both students and alumni to the area every year. Events like homecoming and graduation require full-service catering teams and event planners with expertise in small and large-scale event services.

With years of experience serving Columbia’s institutions, bleu Events has developed a catering experience tailored to university and college-based events, including Greek life houses and celebrations.

With our services you will have peace of mind knowing your event is unique to your college or university’s venue needs, whether it be an alumni dinner, awards ceremony, or special conference.
