Our Mission
We bring people together with food. Delicious. Innovative. Engaged!
How it all started.
Founded in 2002, our company began with a commitment to consistency, creativity, and customer service. Under the leadership of CEO Bill Rowe, previously at the helm of beloved local restaurants Willie C’s Café (1985-2008) and Red Beans Bayou Grill (2008-2014), and Wichita venue space, Villa Luna (2013-2025), Blue Moon Caterers has expanded steadily while staying true to its core values.
Today, Blue Moon Caterers employs over 100 full and part time staff and operates additional meal and culinary subsidiaries including Lunar Culinary Services, a contract meal service for school/daycare facilities, residential living centers, healthcare facilities, and cafeterias, Bluemoon Go offering easy online ordering and fast lunch delivery, Lunar Grill in Wesley Hospital, and EAT at Wichita Art Museum.
As our reputation grew, so did our ambition. After years of crafting thousands of successful events and providing ongoing meal delivery services, we needed a space that matched both our scale and our vision.
In January 2025, we proudly opened our new culinary and catering center at 524 S Seneca Street, a modern facility designed to support and showcase the professionalism, creativity, and elevated service we bring to every occasion.
What sets us apart?
Our attention to detail and dedication to getting it right—every time. Whether we’re managing a black-tie gala or an intimate backyard wedding, from 20 guests to 600 guests, our goal is the same: to provide seamless service and outstanding food that leaves a lasting impression. We offer a full-service catering experience that’s both professional and personal, with custom menus tailored to each client’s style, taste, and vision.
With a strong reputation built on reliability, results, and repeat business, Blue Moon Caterers continues to be the first choice for clients across the Wichita area who want their events handled with care, confidence, and expertise.
