Sally and Mike Pace are a dream to work with and their staff is always great and helpful. This venue comes with pretty much everything for an amazing rate. As of today, you can have flexibility on DJ, bar setup and catering options, tables, linens and chairs provided, they book security for you and make everything seamless. They even will offer additional resources to help you set up and breakdown. There is a reason we had both important events here and it is worth a tour and getting to know the Paces. You will be in good hands on your special day and every day leading up to it. We look forward to the many years ahead of continuing to hold our events here.

My husband and I had our wedding at The House location and it was a dream come true! The venue was beautiful (our family and friends could not stop talking about how amazing the location was).

During our wedding day, we were given a Venue Coordinator and she handled everything to ensure the day ran smoothly. Hands down the best customer service I've experienced from a vendor! Hope to work with them again in the future!

You can feel their warmth and kindness within seconds of meeting them. They went above and beyond anything I could have ever asked for. They allowed me to come the night before my wedding and take over the entire bar area to get as much set up as possible. They helped with the entire set up process, and even allowed me to borrow one of their tents to block access to a certain area...they even set it up for us and added lights to make it look beautiful. The day of the wedding, they helped some of the wedding party to get everything into the correct areas and looking beautiful. Deena saved the day by making sure the alter looked amazing when the groom and groomsmen ran out of time. Overall, they provided a wonderful, relaxed wedding experience and attempted to make the day as calm as possible. I would 100% recommend having your wedding or your next event there. You will absolutely not regret it, and bonus...you get to meet and spend time with the amazing owners! I will add some photos of their beautiful space as soon as I get them from the photographer. From the bottom of my heart, thanks again for everything.

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.

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 took so much stress off of my shoulders on the wedding day and the days leading up I was confident they would handle everything and they did. We had some hiccups with one of our vendors and Maria handled it so gracefully. Thank you so much to Maria , Lucina and the rest of the college minion team for your hard work and dedication. I'm truly grateful. If your wondering about getting a service from Them I 100% recommend.

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
