The Miners 1928 Hotel
Celebrate Forever in Our Restored 1928 Masterpiece
The staff and management at the Miners 1928 Hotel went above and beyond to make our wedding celebration truly special and flawless. From the very beginning, the coordinators helped with every detail and handled everything with the utmost professionalism, taking so much of the stress and anxiety out of wedding planning.
The servers, bartenders, and hotel staff were exceptionally polite, attentive, and helpful to our entire family, friends, and guests. Their professionalism and hospitality did not go unnoticed and were sincerely appreciated by everyone.
The hotel’s rich history was also a huge hit with our guests. Everyone loved seeing the heritage of our area beautifully preserved and displayed in such a classy, elegant setting.
Our wedding was a completely flawless fairy tale, and we are incredibly thankful to the entire Miners 1928 team for helping make our day everything we dreamed it would be. We highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding or special event!
My husband and I were the first couple to get married at The Miners 1928 Hotel. If I could give this venue 1000/10, it would still be an understatement. For some background, my husband had injured his knee 6 days before our wedding and was in a wheelchair, throwing in some complications. Between planning for the first wedding hosted at this venue and dealing with the new adjustments needed for my husband, Lianna and Shannon (the event coordinators) handled it flawlessly. My wedding day was absolutely perfect without a hiccup. The staff were so kind and took care of everything. The planning of the wedding was also very low-stress for me. Lianna and Shannon coordinated everything with my photographer, wedding decor, DJ, and bakery, We met multiple times after scheduling the wedding and right before the wedding so the details/timeline was set and distributed to the vendors so everything would go smoothly. We stayed overnight in the suites for the bride/groom which were amazing and felt like pure luxury. Lianna and Shannon arranged for breakfast/drinks to be brought up to our suites while getting ready. The bridal suite was perfect- plenty of space and outlets so we could have our hair/makeup done for myself, two mothers, and the four bridesmaids. There is an option to getting married at the reception, but we had already planned on getting married at our church. Afterwards we came back, took pictures in the reception hall in front of the vault which turned out gorgeous (shoutout to Stesha Hand, the BEST photographer and Cheryl Heim for the gorgeous wedding decor). We then went upstairs above the vault where the wedding party had a private cocktail hour with plenty of drinks/hors'doevres. The wedding party did their entrance down the stairwell from the vault, we did ours from inside the vault (last minute adjustment due to the wheelchair) but it was actually better than originally planned. We definitely threw some curveballs at Lianna and Shannon the week prior and they made adjustments so smoothly. The whole team were wonderful to work with; I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone looking to plan a wedding or host an event.
