An absolute delight to host the wedding

We held our son's wedding at Minerals Hotel in May 2026, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish.

I was quite apprehensive going into the wedding weekend because of a difficult experience we had at another resort during our older son's wedding seven years ago. However, Dana was an absolute delight to work with and completely exceeded our expectations.

She consistently went above and beyond to help both our family and our guests. Any issues that arose—and they were only minor—were addressed quickly and professionally. Every event was set up on time, and all of our vendors commented on how wonderful and organized she was to work with.

Dana's assistant, Kaya, was equally amazing. She seemed to be everywhere at once, making sure our kids and their friends had everything they needed. Our children could not stop talking about the care, attention, and kindness that Dana, Kaya, and the entire staff showed them throughout the weekend.

They truly eased our concerns, allowed us to relax, and made what could have been a stressful event completely stress-free. We are incredibly grateful for their dedication and professionalism and would highly recommend Minerals Hotel to anyone planning a special event.

Unforgettable Wedding Reception

We recently had our wedding reception at Minerals Hotel: Sweetgrass Pavilion in Vernon NJ.

From start to finish, it was truly the best possible experience. Dana, our wedding coordinator, did an amazing job communicating throughout the whole process and making sure everything ran as smooth as possible on our wedding night, she is awesome to work with! Throughout the night, the whole Minerals team and the bridal assistant Kaya did a great job in taking care of every detail so that everyone there was taken care of and able to enjoy the night.

When we were looking for a venue, there was not a place that compared to everything Minerals had to offer. The value for what you pay, and having all the resort amenities for us and our guests, we believe is truly unbeatable. For someone looking for an elevated outdoor experience, we highly recommend the Sweetgrass Pavilion. All in all, Minerals Resort did a spectacular job and was a major part in making our wedding the best night of our lives.

Amazing Wedding Venue - Minerals Hotel, Diamond Ballroom

Minerals Hotel, Diamond Ballroom was the PERFECT venue for our wedding day this past December. We highly recommend having your wedding or event here! It is a one-stop shop where guests are only down the hall from the ballroom making it super convenient.
The food was outstanding, and no guest left hungry! We were able to choose our stations, passed hors d'oeuvres, appetizers, and entrees from a wide selection of options and let me tell you, every single dish was delicious! It was important to my husband and I to try every dish at our wedding. The venue made the accommodation for us to have a private cocktail hour with a spread of all the chosen food dishes. They also let us try all our entrée selections during the reception. All our leftovers were kindly packaged by the venue and placed in the fridge in our hotel room.
The staff is INCREDIBLE. They go above and beyond and exceeded all of our expectations. Their attention to detail on the wedding day can’t be matched. They are professional, great with communication, and passionate about making our day and weddings in general perfect.
Rebecca gave us our initial tour of the venue, and her warm, positive energy and the cozy vibes of the hotel made it stand out from other venues. Dana was our wedding coordinator and she was professional, organized, and made sure to make our wedding vision a reality. Kaya the bridal attendant was prepared and ready to jump in wherever needed. Terry the Maître d’ made sure the reception went smoothly!
I’d also like to give a shout out to Ed and John, our bartenders. They made sure to keep the party going with their friendly attitude!
Our wedding day was everything we wanted it to be and more and that is because of Minerals Hotel, Diamond Ballroom and their incredible staff.

Cuccolo Wedding 11/7/2025

Minerals Hotel is everything you could want in a wedding venue and more. We chose it because we wanted a hotel that felt like an in-state “destination wedding,” and Minerals delivered that perfectly. It was one of the few places where we could truly take over the property — no multiple weddings happening at once, just our celebration. From the start, we were made to feel like the priority.

Rebecca and Dana were incredible to work with both leading up to the wedding and on the day itself. Our guests filled more than 70 rooms for the weekend, and the entire Minerals team was so welcoming, attentive, and genuinely excited to make our weekend special.

Everyone raved about the food, the décor, and the ambiance in the Canyon Ballroom. We feel so lucky to have celebrated our wedding at Minerals and can’t wait to visit again soon!

Book this venue for you wedding!

From start to finish Minerals was the right choice. We started working with Rebecca before we worked with Dana and then finally had Kaya as our day-of coordinator. All three were incredible to work with. They made sure we had everything we needed as we were planning the wedding. They were easy to talk to, gave good advice, were responsive to outreach, and helped ensure the entire weekend went off without a hitch. Kaya as our day coordinator made sure that we got all the food we wanted, ensured our drinks were always full, and even made sure the bride’s dress was taken care of during the reception. We were blown away by how much they clearly care about everyone having a spectacular wedding.

Minerals Sweetgrass Pavilion Wedding 09.12.25

We are so happy we chose Minerals Hotel, Sweetgrass Pavilion, as our wedding destination. We had most of our friends and family traveling from Long Island, NJ & Maryland/DC so this venue served as a mini-destination wedding. We loved that everyone could stay on property and access their rooms if needed throughout the night. The staff was another highlight - Dana & Kaya and their team were so accommodating, professional and on-top of anything that needed to be addressed. I honestly was speechless at how well run the operations were & we did not have to worry about anything day of. It shows the team knows what they are doing. We opted for the After Party Pool Party & Day-After Breakfast which were also hits. I cannot speak highly enough about this venue. Highly recommend to anyone looking to get married!

Summer 2025 Wedding

We had an amazing experience getting married at Crystal Springs Resort. We did our ceremony and reception at the Minerals Hotel, Sweetgrass Pavilion. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking. We also had the best wedding coordinator, Dana. She went above and beyond for us. She truly treated us like family. We could not have asked for a better experience.

Sweetgrass Pavilion

This venue was perfect for our wedding!! Everything went so smoothly. We had a meeting a month prior with Dana and she was the best to work with. She answered all our questions and was super helpful with all the coordination leading up to the wedding. The day of the wedding Kaya was our bridal attendant and she was awesome. She was constantly running around to get us anything we needed and knew all the spots for pictures so that helped things go a lot quicker and we were not stressed on time knowing she was there! We were also concerned about the rain on the day of but Dana assured us they would make it work with the ceremony outside. I would 100% recommend this wedding venue. The staff is amazing and the place was beautiful!
