About

We are NOT a wedding Venue. El Zapato is a unique and beautiful private home set up for you (and a few of your closest wedding guests) to use as a home base during your wedding weekend.

With El Zapato's 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, 3 rooftop decks, and a large party courtyard, we can comfortably accommodate your wedding party for the entire weekend, and host a fabulous rehearsal dinner or post wedding brunch for your closest guests! For the bride and groom, you will have plenty of space to get ready before the big event!
Additionally, the building is full of delightful nooks and crannies that make wonderfully distinctive backdrops for special wedding weekend photos.

The friendly team at El Zapato will always be on-hand to provide any support or assistance you may need. Outside vendors are welcome allowing you to personalize your wedding weekend with a rehearsal dinner or post wedding brunch. What's more, the property is wheelchair accessible and equipped with WiFi.

To find out more about hosting your guests on at El Zapato on your wedding weekend, contact them today. Owner and proprietor Carla Lejade would be delighted to welcome you. Check out our website for more info.
