Long overdue review!…read more THANK YOU SAL AND EVERYONE AT BLISS EVENTS GROUP! My wife and I got married at the darling hotel on 12/12/24, and I think we booked Sal (officially) a few months before the wedding after previously talking with him months before. Even with the short time crunch, Sal had us covered! He gave us very easy forms to fill out with the songs we wanted, when to play them, which songs we absolutely had to play, what not to play etc. Sal took the time to get us on the phone and for the first 30 minutes, he just wanted to get to know us! Asked for our story, what we did for work, etc. and vice versa! We got to know him as well which made everything fit perfectly as time went on! my wife and I had some trouble figuring out songs for some of the formalities like father daughter dance, and some of the walk outs for the wedding party, but Sal was able to nail it with his suggestions after getting to know us a little better! The day of the wedding came and Sal was ON POINT with everything! Sal isn't just any ordinary wedding DJ that goes through the motions of hitting play and making announcements.. He literally goes above and beyond, making everything flow effortlessly without any awkward in between moments, and the fact that we had gotten to know each other.. it was like having a family member DJ the wedding! Also: Our baby girl was 7 months old during our wedding, and we had misplaced her baby formula. Sal over heard what was going on and offered to call his contacts in town to go pick up baby formula for our daughter if we needed so we wouldn't have to worry about it. We ended up finding the formula, but TELL ME WHO WOULD DO THAT?! SAL IS F'N AWESOME FOR THAT! Hands down, bliss events group knows what they're doing. Never once did I ever feel like I had to worry about the DJ being on que or if they were going to be properly prepared. If I ever need a DJ in the future for any type of event, I'm definitely going with bliss events group and would refer them to anyone. Lastly: They are busy! Sal mentioned he was booked almost EVERY DAY in December and we are so grateful that he made time for our wedding. We didn't get a call back right away, but keep in mind.. A BUSY DJ IS A GOOD DJ! GIVE THEM TIME TO CALL YOU BACK! You won't regret it! You're awesome, Sal! Nik & Geraldine

The venue and grounds are beautiful but we were disappointed with some of the services. As parents…read moreof the groom, we offered to pay for the bar. First off, we were limited to 6 types of alcohol. When I arrived I saw three 750 ml bottles of each liquor behind the bar. I assumed there was more in storage, but just as dinner was starting I was told they ran out of some items and they closed the bar. WHAT?? I paid to have the bar OPEN all night. Our "day of coordinator" offered to go buy more but they wouldn't serve it. We had to wait 45 minutes or more for Director of Operations to get more from another venue and eventually they reopened. Meanwhile they refused to serve what items they still had to guests who came to the bar and were very RUDE to guests. My nephew came up to get the bride and groom a drink and was denied. Fortunately he persisted and they reluctantly made him some drinks. They wouldn't even give my brother a Diet Coke which he could clearly see in the fridge behind the bar. Another thing is....the contract says "no shots". I get that they don't want groups of people throwing back shots and becoming unruly, but some people just like to sip on some scotch or bourbon neat or on ice. They wouldn't prepare that. They insisted you had to have a mixer. I don't consider Crown on the Rocks a "shot". The Director offered me a $500 credit on a $7000+ bar bill but that doesn't excuse the rude behavior of the bartenders. I'll leave the other shortcomings for my daughter-in-law to review but very disappointed with the bar.

We had Tres Bien cater our cocktail party at our house…read more We were referred to them. We are so glad that we found them as the stood out from a lot of other caterers. Their food options were amazing We contacted Elaine and she gave us so many ideas and menu items to choose from. She helped us narrow it down and get the menu we loved. The day of the event ran so smooth. Elaine along with Brett and Amy were great. Punctual, respectful and professional. They finished cooking everything in out kitchen and set up the food for our guests The food they made was delicious and presented in such a beautiful way.

I hired vintage kitchen for my event. Felicia was so quick to respond when I contacted her over…read moreinstagram. Messaging her wasn't like messaging a big catering place, it was so much more personal. I asked Felicia if she could do desserts and a themed charcuterie table, and she was excited to make my vision happen. The desserts were absolutely to die for, blueberry crumble bars, raspberry cheesecakes, red velvet Bundt cakes, she set them up beautifully for me and even added a personalized themed menu. The charcuterie table was absolutely everything I envisioned. You can tell she is passionate about what she does, her and one other team member looked at all the detail and organized everything to perfection. She was so enthusiastic while working it gave me great vibes. The team member that came to pick up their items packed my charcuterie onto my trays for me, and was so sweet! Make sure to give that gal a tip!! As I did because she went above and beyond as well. I can't wait to visit this place and order some more from them!

Worst people to hire. They lack morals and ethics. They ruined my wedding and were full of excuses…read morethat made no sense. They did not set up the backdrop I prepaid for and they confirmed they would set up. I paid them over $1,500 to provide desserts, table set up, and a backdrop for my wedding. Felicia asked me before my wedding if I still wanted the backdrop because my venue was pretty. I told her, yes definitely, I want the backdrop that I already paid her for and planned my wedding around. I had my wedding set up so that the backdrop would cover the seating charts from behind. Vintage Kitchen decided DURING my wedding that they would not set up the backdrop I paid them for and planned for, without telling me. She decided by herself that she would not set up what was already paid for and confirmed. I didn't see it until it was too late. So, the back of my seating charts were visible right behind the dessert table and it was so ugly. Vintage Kitchen began the night by arriving 30 minutes late to set up. They approached the dessert table when we were beginning our wedding party entrance at 6pm. Our cake and desserts were not set up by the time we had to do our cake cutting (after the wedding party entrance, our first dance, and table dash), the table was still bare - about an hour after the agreed upon set up time. I reached out to Felicia the following day during my mini-moon to tell her what happened, and instead of being sincere, she was making up excuses. She said she tracks her assistant and her assistant arrived onsite at 5:38pm, minutes after our agreed on time of 5:30pm (as if that should have been ok). This is ridiculous because she should have been setting up at 5:30pm, NOT barely arriving in the parking lot at 5:38pm, in her car. I told Felicia that, and she didn't care. Her assistant didn't reach the dessert table for setup until about 6pm when we were doing our wedding party entrance. Felicia then went on to blame my other vendors as to why my desserts were not set up on time and blamed them for why they did not set up the backdrop, which made no sense. It was NOT my other vendors' fault that Felicia's assistant was late and couldn't set up because it was about 6pm and we were doing our entrance. It was not my other vendors' fault that Felicia's assistant made the decision on her own to not set up the backdrop I confirmed, paid for, and planned my wedding around. I can confirm that my vendors did not impede their set up in any way, but Vintage Kitchen wanted to lay blame on others for their own wrong doing. Felicia also told me it's up to their "discretion" if they want to set it up or not. How does that make any sense when they are prepaid for the service and I confirmed with them? It was a very rough back and forth with her. Felicia was full of excuses. Felicia said she would refund me $50 for the backdrop (I don't think the backdrop was only $50, but that's what she was offering) and sent me $50 on Paypal, then she took it back within 30 minutes of sending it! She took back what she said she would refund me. I saw $50 in my Paypal from her, then the $50 vanished in half an hour. I messaged her to ask her about it, and she ghosted me. It has been almost 3 years since and still no refund of any sort, no reply, and no sincere apology or way to try to make things right, even though she posted my wedding to market herself. I paid her over $1,500, she messed up my wedding, kept money for a service she did not provide, and this is how she behaves. I left her a review on her business Facebook and she deleted the ability to leave reviews to get rid of my review, then blocked me. I also left a review on her Google business, but she deleted it to get rid of my review. Now that she has it back up, I feel it is my duty to let others know my experience with Felicia and Vintage Kitchen. There are plenty of other local bakers who have delicious desserts and have better morals and ethics, who actually value their customers.

We've stayed at The Darling a few times now as we have family in the area. We tend to gravitate…read moretowards boutique hotels beyond "big box" properties and The Darling definitely fits the bill in that regard. The rooms are always clean, the Elderwood is an ice touch, and the vibe is always fun. During this trip, all was fine when what sounded like the HVAC system above our room started to knock. It's an old historic building so, things happen. The knocking though quickly turned into a roar. We contacted the front desk and this is where the true professionalism of the hotel crew, and particularly Maria, shined through. Maria quickly came upstairs, assessed the situation, triaged with other teams inside the hotel, and identified a solution within 20 minutes. Given the scope of the repair was unclear at the time, she moved us to another room and even upgraded us (even though she didn't have to!) for the inconvenience. Things happen, that's not an issue for us, it's how the team addresses them when they come up. The Darling team rose to the occasion with flying colors so seamlessly in this situation, especially Maria. So for us, just underscores a series of positive experiences at the hotel. This isn't an ultra luxury 5-star hotel, so don't come here expecting that. But it's a great place to stay in Visalia with a premium, boutique vibe, great restaurant, and clean well apportioned rooms. We will be back.

Room service was good quality, appropriately priced and arrived quickly. The only reason I couldn't give this 5 stars was there was no internal secondary lock on the door which made it feel a little unsafe as a solo traveler and also there were not clear instructions about how to enter the gated parking lot upon checking in. Otherwise I had a good stay and would consider visiting again just to eat at the restaurant.
