We’ve compiled essential Sundance Mountain Resort wedding info and costs below.
Sundance Mountain Resort was established in 1969 by Robert Redford. His vision was “to create an unspoiled and authentic experience in this intimate mountain resort where art, nature, and commerce unite to inspire and develop people, voices, and ideas.” I’d say, mission accomplished.
