Before you choose a spot
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Wedding Mexican catering for your wedding in Basted
A Mexican menu makes mixed diets easier: there are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, corn tortillas for gluten-free guests and allergen information for every dish. Popular choices include loaded nachos, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast and evening tacos, and it suits sharing-style wedding meals and vow renewals and blessings.
A wedding in a small place like Basted often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a food truck comes into its own: no kitchen, just firm ground and access. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Planning for every diet
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Check your date with us early
- Include suppliers who need feeding
- Share your running order, including speeches
- Flag any coeliac guests or serious allergies
If speeches or photos run over, tell us, and we will adjust when we serve so the food is still hot.
We can feed your photographer and band too.
How it compares
Evening food is often pizza or bacon rolls. Tacos and loaded nachos feel a bit more special. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Step by step
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. A winter wedding in Basted gets dark early, at about 3:55pm in December, so evening guests will be queuing in the dark. Festoon lights by the truck help guests see the menu.
- First, we check availability for your date.
- You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
- Guests build their tacos at the taco bar or order at the hatch.
- We serve, then pack down.
How to prepare
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Tell us when you want service to start

Why choose wedding Mexican catering in Basted?
It fits barns, marquees and gardens, where a formal sit-down meal is harder to manage.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Common bookings include:
- Farm and barn venues
- Vow renewals and blessings
- Engagement celebrations
- Late-evening wedding food
It helps to add rail details to the invitations, as the nearest station is Borough Green & Wrotham station, about 0.9 miles north.
Before booking anyone
- Any travel, parking or access charges
- Whether VAT is included
- When payment is due
- Allergen information for each dish
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Basted questions
We are having a ceremony at The Church of the Good Shepherd: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.

What if the timings change?
It happens at most weddings. Service starts when your running order says, even if that moves.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
