For at least the first three seasons of ‘Darcey & Stacey,’ Middletown served as the primary production location for the series. Situated in the eponymous county along the Connecticut River, Middletown is where the sisters used to reside during the show’s early seasons. So, many key scenes are lensed in and around the city throughout ‘Darcey & Stacey.’
Other Locations in Connecticut
Besides Middletown, the filming unit sets up camp at various locations across Connecticut as well. For instance, in season 4, Stacey and Florian Sujak get married for the second time in Saybrook Point Resort & Marina – Luxury Connecticut Oceanside Hotel at 2 Bridge Street in Old Saybrook. So, some important scenes were taped on location around the wedding venue during the production process of the fourth season.

Darcey and Stacey started visiting Miami, for familial and business purposes, but then they soon started to contemplate the possibility of moving there in season 3. By season 4, the twins had moved to the Magic City, where several pivotal scenes for the show are taped. In season 4, Incredible Love Matchmaking & Coaching at 1101 Brickell Avenue tower 8th floor in Miami, also served as a pivotal production location.
Virginia
Additional portions of ‘Darcey & Stacey’ are also seemingly recorded in Virginia, a state located in the Southeastern and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. The state’s economy is driven mainly by the military, farming, and local and federal government. It is also home to several museums, such as the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, the Science Museum of Virginia, the Chrysler Museum of Art, and the National Air and Space Museum, to name a few.
