Your Perfect Day Unfolds
You arrive early with your wedding party so you can get ready in the groom's saloon and bridal lounge. Once ready, the ceremony takes place in Benjamin Hall, followed by cocktails on the covered patio or inside the Vault Bar & Lounge. After that, guests move into the Main Ballroom, which has already been completely decorated and set up, for dinner and dancing.
The venue team ensures that every transition is stress-free and seamless throughout the day by coordinating with your vendors and verifying the timing. Instead of looking at the time, you can keep your attention on celebrating.
Photogenic Spaces Throughout
Photographers love working at The Mint. The Vault Lounge offers unique, editorial-style backdrops for couple portraits. Benjamin Hall's glass garage doors let in soft natural light that's great for taking pictures during the ceremony or during cocktail hour. The prep lounges and arcade add character to pre-ceremony photos, while the covered patio gives you golden-hour moments without stepping off-site.
