Your questions about wedding Mexican catering in Blackgang
Could you come to a seaside event near Blackgang?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Seafront and beach spots generally need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
Do you cater in villages like Blackgang?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
How big an event can you cater?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Send us a picture of the access and the space.
Do you work with our venue?
Of course. We’ll speak to your venue about access and timings.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we will check the licensing with you and your venue.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Comparing your options
Compared with formal catering, a taco bar is relaxed and sociable, but it can still feel like a celebration. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- Distance and access to the venue
- Guest numbers
- The menu you choose
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Your date and when you want service to start
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you’re ready, tell us about it on our contact page.

Step by step
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we have agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. A winter wedding in Blackgang gets dark early, at about 4:00pm in December, so evening guests will be queuing in the dark. Ask your venue what outdoor lighting it has near where we’ll park.
- You send us your wedding date, venue, numbers and how you see the day.
- You get a suggested wedding menu and a quote to match.
- We confirm access, the serving spot and the running order with the venue.
- On the day we set up and serve when your running order says.
- We pack down after service and leave our area tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
How to get a price
