Great venue

We had our December wedding at the Miners Foundry, and it was everything we hoped. Kat and crew were very responsive and helpful, and we relied solely on emails and calls with them as we were out-of-towners. The venue was great, everything was clean and in top shape. Thanks Kat!

I cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Miner's Foundry Cultural Center. Our wedding was absolutely beautiful, and I am STILL getting comments on how gorgeous and unique the venue was. Kat was friendly, professional, and accommodating throughout the entire process - giving us an initial tour, letting us come visit twice for planning, and answering countless question and e-mails. The thing I loved most about working with this venue was they never micromanaged and were not pushy. They let us do our thing, but they were always available for whatever degree of involvement we wanted. The foundry is gorgeous as is, but there is definitely opportunity to make it your own. Also, I would recommend paying the difference to rent the entire building. I know that everyone wants to have everything in the gorgeous stone hall, but your guests have to wait so long for the room to be changed, and you have so much more space in the great hall. We squeezed just under 250 guests for a ceremony in the stone hall and reception in the great hall. Also, rent the sound equipment - worth it. We had an unforgettable, surreal wedding day at the Foundry, and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
