We got married here on 4/7/2018 and absolutely LOVED it. I always wanted to get married outside but…read moresince our wedding was in April (and we were worried about rain) the building made my dreams come true by providing a gorgeous view of the outdoors without actually being outside. We were originally going to have the ceremony outdoor at our uncles house, but it actually did rain on our wedding day and the day before, and the manager of the memorial building, Nancy, contacted the pastor of the Presbyterian Church next door for me and we were able to move our ceremony to the church last minute -- which was gorgeous. Nancy was unbelievably helpful through the entire process! Tyler was also very nice and helpful. The windows of the hall made a gorgeous view during dinner. The rain stopped early in the day and we were able to roll up the two giant doors to the amazing outdoor patio and danced all night! The hall in itself is beautiful for just being a "hall" and with some fairy lights and some other decor, it looked just as good as all the other overpriced venues -- most of which do not have an entire wall that rolls up to form the unique indoor/outdoor space. We are so thrilled to have been married in the wonderful town of Three Rivers, and we will be back every year!

I was in a wedding here in July. It was 115 degrees outside. Early in the morning, the AC…read moremini-splits stopped working (you heard me right - not a real AC unit, MINI SPLITS). They began spewing ice and that was it. The coolest room in the apartment/bride's room was 98 degrees from that point on. The rest of the room was hotter. No air flow. No cold water. Not a single place in the entire venue to escape the heat. The infrastructure couldn't handle an ice trailer that needed to be plugged in and it popped a breaker - my husband had to run it off his generator. The level of intense heat and lack of water (the fridge in the bride's room didn't work) was horrific and, frankly, a massive health risk. We were sweating out of our makeup and dresses. Unacceptable response from the venue host. who did NOTHING to fix the AC problem except tell us to close the windows and doors that were ONLY OPEN BECAUSE THE MINI-SPLITS HAD SEIZED UP AND WE NEEDED AIR FLOW. Little kids were on the brink of heat exhaustion and franikly, so were we. We spent all day chugging Liquid IV and hoping we didn't pass out. The heat was unbearable. Putting people through that kind of intense heat is a massive liability on the venue's part - INSANE. I am appalled and repulsed at the total lack of concern and infrastructure from the venue on the issue of cooling. Summer weddings should not be offered here, period. They are NOT set up for it.

With last-minute rain, they had to move things around multiple times, and not once did they complain. Everything was done with such a positive attitude and a smile. Tables were always cleared, glasses stayed full, and every staff member was kind and attentive. I especially want to shout out Bernice and Jonathan. Jonathan was there all day and truly worked his butt off--he impressed all of us. Bernice's customer service is top tier. She made sure we actually ate and always had a drink in hand, which meant so much during such a busy day. Our guests were complimenting the staff all night. I highly recommend The College Minions. Thank you for being such an important part of our special day!

It has taken me an entire year to be able to think about writting a review for Greg Mancini & wife…read more Its taken so long because any time I would think about it I'd get livid & was only be able 2 see the negative aspects. It's been long enough now that we can try to laugh at all the f*%# up's Debbie was resonsible for. Although it still hurts my heart a bit how much she completely ruined what I'd enevisioned and planned for the ceremony. I'll start with the good. Greg is awesome. He is very organized& even though we only spent 2 hours together total in person he was the utmost professional via email & phone calls & he helped me plan out an awesomely entertaining day for both my hubbs & i & our guests. He worked on every detail, spelling, song suggestiosn,how to pronounce everyone's names perfectly. Our day (on paper) started like this.. DJ arrive to ceremony location 1 hour before event & set up Audrey (bride) is peacefully finishing make up& taking pictures Fun pop, r&b, oldies & rock love songs start pre-ceremony A dear friend plays guitar along to dixie chicks 'lullaby' as Audrey walks down the isle (que the tears - amazingly beautiful lyrics). Ceremony takes place-Now pronouce you man and wife - Audrey and Miguel kiss - que beattles "All you need is Love" and everyone clasps whistles etc. B& G take pics as DJ then sets up for the party! Each wedding attendent's announced w/ a special welcome and song chosen by the couple for them to dance to - gives it some personality. All other wedding songs are customzied as well. The father daughter, mother son and bride groom dances - ALL special music custom done by Greg. So let me tell what you really happend. 15 min before the ceremony my (amazing) wedding location planner calmly asks if I'd heard from the Mancini's. No, but i didnt' have my phone on me i reply carelessly. Then it dawns on me - WTH, you mean they're not here?! So the phone calls, texts, email and EVEN IM chats start go to crazy trying to get in touch with either of them. No calls or texts or anything are returned. The time is ticking. My beautifuled planned out thoughtful, funny, exciting day the music was about to take us on was dissolving and there was nothing I could do about it. I had a boy outside w/ an electric guitar and no amp (the DJ was bringing it). NO music to play. NO cd's. NO speakers. NOTHING to make sound! Then my mind wandered and i thought about all the dances. All the hours of practice and editing. and I lost it. It was 2 minutes to 5 (go time) and we had no DJ and no word. they'd come with the highest of recommendations from multiple sources so we were convinced they'd had deadly accident of some sort. Finally the wedding gal found an old CD player (they require the families hire outside DJ's because they don't have sound systems etc - it's not their job the DJ's do it). Next up, a CD? Anyone have a CD in their car we can walk to or something? Guess what we walked down the isle to... Queen? Anyone guess Queen? If so, you're right. We walked down the isle to 'We Are the Champions' by Queen. Now hilarious - but at the time I was furious. NOt to mention all of my pre-wedding photos are crap because i was so busy calling, texting,emailing trying to find out when/if they were ever going to show up between my tears and trying to fix my makeup there was no time to get a good beautiful pre-wedding glow shot. UGH. So our guests and wedding party had a little laugh and shock when they heard the music playing. Most of the guest's couldn't hear our minister saying his so so touching talk (it was my god father, so very sentimental) nor could they hear my husband and I's vows we'd written to eachother nor could they hear our mother's talk during the sand ceremony because there was no microphone. So we end the ceremony go out to take pictures and I am holding back a panic attack because I'm so pissed at what this party is going to turn into with NO dancing!? Our friends are making phone calls trying to line up a DJ or get equipment or make runs to friends houses to just borrow a really big sound system. But this is a wedding of 300 people, a simple CD player won't do for a crowd that size on an outdoor ranch venue. Livid. The pictures continue and I'm strained and irritated through most of them. All of the sudden a van comes down the dirt road (we're on a ranch remember) 100 miles an hour. Hum..this better be them. Thank goodness it is and they start setting up at record speed. The woman has the nerve to come up to me with a hug. Apologized she was late. Hum, you just ruined my wedding ceremony, I'm thinking as i grin through it and tell her to hurry up and just do her thing. The rest of the nite went according to plan for the most part except she pronouned my name as "AuBrey" (not Audrey) most of the night. Never said Miguel's name right. Butchered both of our families names, rushed us through the cake, bouquet toss, dances everything so she could hurry up

The view is amazing. Just start there. The wines are mostly Rhone style with lots of oak aging to soften and round them out. For a moderately sized mostly estate winery they have a great selection wines from some less common varietals. In the whites and reds balance was a theme throughout. The flavor profiles ranges from sweet to pepper with strong fruit notes. The lounge area was shaded well with cushioned seating. Israel was attentive while juggling a few large groups. He was helpful, excited and knowledgeable about the estate and wine. Overall a great experience I would recommend and go back for.

During our visit, there was a party with tables and seats set up on the lawn. The tasting room is rustic with some seating and a record player and crate of records.

Hubby really enjoyed the wine and bought several bottles. Coming from the bay area where Napa wines are pretty pricey, these wines were a real bargain at about $30 or less a bottle.

It's the wonderful representative of the small, friendly and adorable town of Visalia! My husband and I were driving from Danville CA to attend one of his very close friends' Mother life celebration in Visilia. We needed last minute flower arrangements for their home and a large one for the church/country club event the next moring. Thank to Yelpers, we stopped by Creative Flowers, only 30 minutes before they closed. The owner and her daughter were beyond wonderful, friendly, sweet, and helpful. We chose a nice flower arrangement they had in the store. However, the star of this review was the large flower arrangement for church the very next morning. Since it was definetely the very last minute order, we relied on the owner to make it beautiful based on whatever flowers she has. The result of her work was beyond amazing. According to my husband's friend, who has very high standards: it was EXQUISITE and we agreed with him. The flowers were beautiful and fresh, very well designed, delivered on time and the white ribbon made it even more elegant. We were beyond happy... Owning a small business, especially a flower shop where the life span of these flowers is super short., isn't easy. It requires hard work, dedication and the heart and love and this shop has it all. Flowers attach to our emotion: either a celebration or time of sorrow and grief. The owner of this shop and her family definetely have all of the ingredients to deliver whatever our hearts ask for... We love supporting small businesses. This adorable flower shop and the owners for sure took a piece of our hearts and made us falling in love with the small but wonderful town Vialia! If you need flower arrangements to send to those you truly love, this is DA PLACE!!!
