Dietary needs and planning tips
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Check gate widths and any height limits

Wet weather does not close the hatch, though a marquee or gazebo helps guests stay dry.
A taco-bar station can sit next to the truck for a wedding breakfast or lunch.
