But I'm glad we ended up booking. I explained my expectations and my worries about the comments I read, but Sage made it clear that they were under new management and that things are better. Which they were, every email I sent, I received a response same day, when I called, I received a call right back. Sage was there for the event, he checked out us through the day and made sure the garbage bins were emptied throughout the party. He also set up the tables prior and helped with opening the chairs. He was kind, professional, and helpful. We did a walk through prior to our event and one after the event was completed. I would definitely book again! Space was a great size, stage was big, speakers and mic were great, and everything was clean.

I rescheduled for another time, and once again, it was canceled. When I reached out to the event manager, Cole, to see if there was a more reliable time to book, he simply reiterated that he's the only one handling tours and sometimes can't make it. There was no effort to accommodate my schedule or acknowledge the inconvenience of having to rearrange childcare and other commitments just to be canceled on again. Lack of customer service and professionalism. I've decided this isn't a place I want to take my business if this is how customers are treated from the beginning. If you're looking for a dependable venue that values your time, I would think twice before booking here.

We had our engagement party at Dolphins Banquet Hall last weekend. When we first met with the owner…read morethey gave us a deal and said the decorations wouldn't include fresh flowers, which I was okay with. In the beginning, planning the party was going okay, we ended up picking out decorations that day, but we only had a limited amount of time to look at the decorations, so I did request to make about 4-5 changes to our decorations from the original request. Two days before the event Suman(the owners wife) notified us that they put out only 18 tables, instead of the 20 we agreed upon. My Fiance requested for 2 more tables, and if needed he would pay extra, but thinking they wouldn't charge us more since on the contract it said 20 tables, but my fiance was incorrect, they wanted to charge us $300 extra for the table and chairs, even tho we weren't inviting more people we wanted 20 tables and 9 chairs on each table for our 180 guests. I was upset so I called Suman and asked why they would change things and ask for more money 2 days before our event?! Suman was so rude and condescending over the phone, and and finally she said to talk to her husband and decide it with him, then I had to explain to the owner that you can't say you will do something and then back out 2 days before the event, and he finally agreed to put out the 20 tables. I was so upset, what kind of owner would do this to their clients 2 days before their engagement party. So stressful, but it doesn't stop there, the day before the event the owner asked me to come and see the decorations. When I got there everything looked fine, except instead of the cloth napkins that we agreed upon they had put regular paper napkins on the table, and 3 of the tables had random centerpieces, after talking about the changes that were made, Suman said 'well you can take your money and have your party somewhere else", yes she said that to us a day before our party, so we decided it wasn't worth the stress to argue about it anymore, and told them just leave it as is and just change the 3 centerpiece to match the rest of the tables. So after all that stress we hoped there would be no more drama, but that wasn't the end, the day of the event the owner only had 19 tables out instead of the 20 which we were able to overlook, then the owner had the audacity to lock the front doors and tell us we had more than 180 guest, which was untrue, we had so many empty chairs, and we made sure to only invite 180 people and about 20 weren't even able to come. When my guests would walk outside for some fresh air they would be locked outside and would have to knock on the door for a while in order to have someone open it. My aunt went outside to get her medication, because she recently had surgery and even she was locked out, even my mom was locked outside for a while, even tho it clearly says to keep front doors unlocked during business ours. Also during the party he came up to my mom to say there were extra guests, and told us we would be charged per person. They had the security guard count every guest with a "clicker", and he was counting people who were going out and coming back in.  The owner called me the next day and said we had over 35 extra guest(which was not true) and wanted us to pay more money for that. I told him that can't be the case because we had so many empty seats and he never put the 20th table out. I asked him if he had to make more food, and he said no but we had to make more Naan, which was not true because they ran out of Naan early on, they probably didn't even put out enough Naan. It just seemed that they some how wanted us to pay more than what was agreed upon. I was debating if I should write a review or not, but I decide to because I would hate for another family to experience this. If you do decide to go with dolphins banquet hall, please make sure to get a copy of the contract that has all agreements right after you sign it, so later on they can't cross things out, and make it seem like you agreed to something else. Also I hope after reading this the owner will know it is not okay to treat your clients this way. Customer service matters, and you should not add extra stress to your clients the day of their event. Two great things about Dolphins Banquet Hall, one was the decorations were really nice, and everyone loved the food, it was really good. If we didn't have the added stress from the owners a few days before and during the event, then I would have definitly given them 5 stars.

I was randomly scrolling on Instagram and came across XO Pilates hotties and lo and behold, this is one of the events featured this month at this beautiful venue. I'm a Drake fan so of course it took no convincing for me to attend. Now I have to mention I have never done Pilates a day of my life and physically it was challenging, but the way this event was set up with the various vendors and they even had a little bar and a food truck took all that anxiety away. I highly recommend if you're into Pilates and you want to have an evening or a day to enjoy with friends or even if you go alone, I highly recommend attending events here at this venue. I am so glad that I made it out. I had a great time although I was so sore but it also gave me the opportunity to experience some local vendors that or at this event.

As a little girl I dreamed of having a fairytale wedding- a wedding that was beautiful, magical,…read moreand the perfect backdrop to marrying my prince charming. The Willow Ballroom was it- I had my eyes on this place and crossed my fingers that one day I could get married here. Soon the time came and when my now husband and I toured the venue for the first time we were enchanted by the venue's beauty, detail, and amazing aesthetic. On our wedding day our family and friends were gushing over how incredible the Willow Ballroom was. Adjectives we have been hearing a lot are breathtaking, gorgeous, and Taylor Swift Love Story vibes. I completely agree. One reason it is breathtaking is the chandeliers and drapes. WOW, the first time I walked in they were setting up for an open house and even when everything wasn't fully set up it looked amazing! The height of the chandeliers and drapes are put at the perfect spot. The aisle I walked down on was lined with chandeliers, it made me feel like a Disney princess! All of the decor in the space is handpicked and well arranged. Every item of decor makes sense, nothing is too big or too small for the space. Also everything in the space is clean, classy, and elegant. During cocktail hour our family and friends loved the seating and table options and they said it added an extra special touch to our wedding. They also couldn't get over the beautiful giant mirrors that welcomed you into the venue. For the adjective gorgeous every step you take into the venue puts you in a state of awe. Even the bathrooms are decorated so nicely and cleanly! From the outside to inside space there are so many gems for spots to take pictures. They also have a private estate that has amazing greenery and is a pretty background for more wedding photos. Angelica and her family did a really great job giving space for couples to make their wedding picture dreams come to life. You might chuckle at the Taylor Swift Love Story adjective, but it is an absolute complement. Angelica provided a wonderful list of preferred vendors- we were able to get the vendor dream team. My family and friends couldn't stop talking about each of the vendors from signage to florist to the ice cream cart to photography etc. Usually there is just one vendor everyone loves but it seemed like nobody could pick their favorite because they were all SO good! Each of these vendors were familiar with the Willow Ballroom and all came together to emphasize the venue's magnificent features and celebrate our special day. They all took my wedding dreams and picked the best designs, colors, and food to match the venue perfectly where everyone was singing Love Story (Taylor's version) in their heads throughout the night. Angelica works well with all the vendors to inform them with accurate information and communicates in a detailed way and we are incredibly thankful for that! The Willow Ballroom is an absolute beautiful space and we highly recommend you getting married or hosting your event there!

It's definitely a showcase of Central Valley Filipino-ness, culture and talent! It's run by six Filipino American community organizations and promotes community and youth relations, educating on history, with cultural activities and other festival events. The highlights of the fiesta include a parade, live entertainment, eskrima & arnis tournaments, traditional Filipino food. All ages, free entry, purchases out of pocket. 2022 was the first in-person event since Covid! The Fiesta went from 10am-5pm. When I arrived around 11am, it was pretty packed and I had to parallel park on the side street rather than the main parking lots. Weather was that weird overcast sprinkly light wind which doesn't scream "June" summertime, but for being out on the grassy area it was ok for walking. They had a charity car show/contest (Team LoveHATE and Neu Era), many many vendor booths from sponsors such as SMUD, UC Davis Health, Vaccinate All 58, Kaiser Permanente, Cache Creek, East Lawn, Sac Asian Chamber of Commerce (shout-out to Nikki S.!) giving out free 10-pack N95 masks and up to 3 Covid tests and other fun stalls like QTEA Boba (taro, milk tea, thai tea), a candle shop, a sticker shop, Filipino wares/crafts like island dresses, fun shirts, bracelets, Filipino flags, etc. My fave was the MTPhotos Sac mini photobooth and raffle (shoutout Misty T.!). They had an outdoor stage for music, performers as well as an indoor stage with performances by Sinagtala, tinikling (bamboo traditional folk dance), kung fu demonstration, Zumba, an oldies band, Polynesian dancers. The food trucks were very popular. Official vendors were Hella Halo (halo-halo), Pinorrito, Daisy's Desserts, My Lumpia Lady, Duffy's Hot Dogs, Angry Asian Chef, and Sugarbar. They had some tables and chairs for people to sit and eat too. I saw people eating chicken adobo and rice, lumpia, bbq on a stick, pancit! I picked up a few sweet treats from Ube Galore Breads & More (Bay Area-based) -- ube eggpie and ube cassava to take home...delicious!
