Amazing!!!

We will forever be thankful for Oscar and the Los Portales team! They were an absolute pleasure to work with and truly brought our dream wedding to life.
From the moment we walked in, we knew this was our venue. It’s such a charming and private space. We were also planning our wedding from Tennessee, so communication was incredibly important to us, and they exceeded our expectations every step of the way.
And the big day… WOW! Everything came together perfectly. All of our vendors had an amazing setup, and the space Los Portales provided made it all so beautiful. The DJ kept the energy high, the dance floor was never empty, and the bar service was fantastic.
Truly, the day was absolutely perfect, and we couldn’t have done it without Oscar and his team. One thing we really appreciated when we received the quote was that so much was included. It made a huge difference and took a lot of stress off our shoulders.
If you’re considering Los Portales, go check it out! Just know you can truly transform this space into something magical.

Romantic Summer Wedding

We had our wedding at Los Portales in June 2025. Oscar and his team went above and beyond to ensure it was a beautiful and stress-free occasion. Los Portales is perfect for a private, intimate outdoor ceremony and rustic reception. Our guests complimented the cocktail hour and delicious mushroom chicken dinner. My husband and I enjoyed dancing under the string lights and found the atmosphere romantic. The sparkler send-off was the perfect ending to our celebration.

I highly recommend Los Portales to couples looking for professional service and a scenic and serene venue.

May Wedding

In the world of wedding planning where it seems like vendors and venues are in it for the business, Los Portales stands out in the most beautiful way. From the initial meeting to the moment we stepped out of the venue on our wedding night, we felt like Los Portales and their staff were sincerely invested in providing the best possible wedding for us. We would highly recommend Los Portales to any couple or family planning an event. The food is delicious, the staff is attentive, and the setting is extremely intimate and inviting. Los Portales, Oscar, Ivonne, Alvaro, and all the staff went above and beyond to ensure our wedding went smoothly.

Catherine and Robert 2025

This venue is amazing, Oscar and the staff was such a pleasure to work with. They were so accommodating and calm in what normally is a happy but stressful time. Their goal is to be a one stop venue. Along with the recommendation and their experience and goal of simple but elegant, the out come can only be perfect. We hope to post pictures soon. Los Portales is the perfect venue for modern yet vintage touch wedding.

The Best Venue in El Paso

My husband and I got married on December 14th and had our reception at Los Portales Venue. They did an amazing job! They have a friendly staff, speedy in their service and responses, thoroughly organized, and Oscar and Ivonne were the best with helping! I had been in contact with Los Portales Venue since November 2023. They responded whenever I reached out within a day. In addition, they did not forget about us! They were very professional and willing to get to know us. It is a beautiful venue and all of our guests were amazed by the historical beauty and the kindness of all of the staff! I would definitely book another event with them.
