Weddings
From the rustic charm of the beautifully appointed cabins, to the natural splendor of the mineral hot springs, Dunton most certainly serves as the perfect setting for this memorable event.
No matter the size of the occasion, our friendly staff will approach yours with detail, expertise and genuine good nature, complementing your party’s experience and adding to their memories.
Renting the town allows you exclusive use of all that Dunton boasts: the original Dancehall & Saloon, Bathhouse, The Pony Express Yoga Studio, The West Fork Boxing Gym, our very own open air chapel, two spa treatment cabins, and 12 hand-hewn luxury cabins, each unique in size, charm and character from the next. Town Rental includes rooming accommodations and all meals for up to 42 guests. More intimate weddings, elopements and vow renewals are also picturesque at Dunton. Favorite ceremony sites have included the chapel, waterfall, and nearby meadows.
And beyond the comfort of the town proper … the great outdoors – giving way to some of the most breathtaking, rugged, pristine and surprisingly accessible terrain on the planet, with sweeping stands of aspen, 14,000 foot mountain peaks, alpine springs, rivers, lakes, and lush meadows. Your guests can enjoy a range of activities from a heavenly picnic-for-two to heli-skiing. Enjoy horseback riding, fly-fishing, mountain biking, hiking, and rock climbing in the summer or snowshoeing, cross and back country skiing, and snowmobiling in the winter.
Our much raved about kitchen is organic and creative. Our chefs work closely with a network of local organic farms and ranches to source the ingredients for their imaginative and healthy cuisine, including organic peaches, pears, plums, local grass-fed lamb, and wild Boletus and Chanterelle mushrooms. Collaborate with our Executive Chef directly to create the meal you’ve always imagined. Whether you prefer a casual bar-b-q or a formal plated dinner, our chefs are always willing to help you achieve that vision.
Complement your meals with a wide range of wines from our very own Sutcliffe Vineyard out of McElmo Canyon. Our wine cellar also includes first growth Bordeauxs, California masterpieces, super Tuscans and lusty Aussie favorites. Local beers and a vast selection of liquors are also served to please.
