The open space fits up to 500 guests and is a favorite for its versatility. It also lends itself for inside or outside wedding ceremonies.

This beautiful wedding venue is very unique and offers a lot of variation, especially for photography. The pecan fields are close enough to utilize in your wedding portraits, which is a favorite amongst brides.

WEDDING AT CORONADO COUNTRY CLUB

If you imagine a “riding off into the sunset” moment, you should definitely consider the Coronado Country club.

This location offers one of the best views to enjoy a sunset. Just imagine the beautiful mountains in the distance. Talk about picture perfect!

This venue is also very lush with greenery, especially when you consider that El Paso is desert.

In my experience, this wedding venue offers a great space for photo opportunities. The meals offered here are also known for being amazing!

The beautiful cocktail hour held on the patio is a favorite amongst guests. It is also a great photo opportunity if you love sunsets. However, the smaller dance floor for this venue is best suited for 200 or fewer guests. If your guest list exceeds this, I would suggest preparing for some overcrowding.

It’s number one allure is the most beautiful view of the city and a glimpse of Mexico too.
