They were so amazing and easy!! So professional and made the day so special. I highly recommend to anyone!!

Popolo did an absolutely amazing job on our April 2026 wedding. We were working with Kat and Leon for almost a year and a half, and they were always very responsive and helpful. It made the wedding process so much easier and we felt like we were in SUCH good hands. On top of that, the food was AMAZING. We had so many people come up to us complimenting the food, and one of my best friend's immediately booked Popolo for their wedding catering and bartending based on their experience at our wedding. 100/10. Thank you Popolo!!!!

TJ the DJ held it down for us!!!!!!! He set up a meeting with us to go through our playlists & what we wanted & was responsive by text with questions. Day of, TJ killed it with song timings, transitions from ceremony to reception to dancing, & kept the vibe going as the crowd shifted to the last few on the dancefloor. We were so thankful to have TJ's experience & professionalism with a fun, easygoing vibe. He truly contributed to our wedding in a huge way & we can't recommend him enough.

We needed tables, chairs, linens, heaters and possibly a tent for an outdoor wedding. After contacting 6 vendors, The Tent Merchant clearly became our top choice. No other vendor was even a close second, for the following reasons. (All other vendors were deficient in one or more of these areas. Every other vendor was deficient in the first. Scary!). 1-COMPETENCE- The Tent Merchant asked all the right, necessary questions to safely, legally, securely erect a tent and visited the venue early on to ensure they were prepared. Beyond safety, they had the best variety of tent sizes,features and embellishments. They also had varied tablecloths available from basic polyester (the only thing available from all other vendors) to cotton, linen, and luxurious textured fabrics. They offered more sizes of linens and tables than others as well. 2-TRANSPARENCY/INTEGRITY: Immediate, clear, unchanging prices and no “surprise" small print. By FAR the best contract terms. No required NON-(or partially)REFUNDABLE deposit on a tent until 10 days prior to event (when weather is more clear), yet guaranteed tent availability! (Others required tent deposit up front: a guaranteed loss if you don't need it). The weather forecast led us to forego the tent, but even after the 10 day deadline, TM assured “we'll do everything we can to take care of you”. We had nearly daily communication that final week, with immediate responses, updates and support. 3-Word-of-mouth RECOMMENDATION by a local event planner, who also sent me a link to the 2025 Santa Barbara Independent Wedding issue, in which The Tent Merchant was a recommended vendor. Yelp and Google were sources for others. Concluding, every detail was efficiently and thoughtfully fulfilled as promised, and on time. I am grateful for the professionalism, competence and integrity of this company. I can't recommend them more highly. They will capably support and fulfill your vision with excellence, they will be available, encouraging and honest, and they will have your back from start to finish.

From planning to the final vows, Christine was absolutely wonderful. She was organized, professional, and always responsive throughout the entire planning process. She made everything feel seamless and stress free. On the day of the wedding, she directed me, my now husband, and the wedding party so everyone knew exactly where to be and when. Her assistant was equally impressive from fixing my dress and veil and keeping the wedding party on track. What truly set Christine apart was how personal and heartfelt her officiating was. She made us and our families feel genuinely celebrated. The Blessing of the Rings with our grandmothers was a moment we'll never forget. It made the ceremony extraordinarily meaningful for everyone there. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant. Highly recommend her to any couple!

5 Star Service from start to finish. I had met with a few other rental companies before chatting with Amigos for rentals for my wedding and once I met with them it was a no brainer they were who I was hiring. Their showroom is beautiful, their staff is so kind and excited for you and your event and they were so communicative. Thank you for making our wedding perfect!

Top marks for elegance and simplicity, delicious meal and top-notch staff. We asked for a care-free service and a meal to to wow. AYSChef delivered every bit from visually pleasing presentation to great coffee and salt-less organic menu that our impressed guests still mention to us.

We loved working with Command Performance Catering! Jesus was able to provide us with even more menu options than we originally thought came with our wedding package, so we were able to create the perfect menu. They were very accommodating with our requests and helpful in deciding on certain details such as chairs, napkins, glasses, seating chart, etc. The staff the day of the wedding were super professional and kind towards our guests. We kept getting complimented on how smoothly everything was being ran. Our food ended up being even better than we expected and our guests really enjoyed it as well! The CPC bartenders were also really great and we loved our signature drinks. We couldn't recommend working with them enough!

DJs catering did an amazing job for my daughter's wedding. From the passed appetizers to the buffet and bar, everything was fantastic. The food was amazingly good. DJs made the event very elegant with the table service of wine and champaign. I would highly recommend DJ's catering for any event.

excellent work!!! Very nicely done!!
