How our wedding Mexican catering works in Boughton Aluph
Service is planned around your running order: whether that’s straight after the photos or later in the evening. We go over timings with your venue beforehand. We serve fresh guacamole and salsas, tacos and loaded nachos, which works well for big weddings with every diet and engagement parties.
A wedding in a small place like Boughton Aluph often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A truck or trailer works well there: no kitchen, just firm ground and access. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
How it works
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. At midsummer, sunset in Boughton Aluph is about 9:15pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:45pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September.

Your questions about wedding Mexican catering in Boughton Aluph
Could you serve our guests after a service at All Saints’ Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station should guests use for Boughton Aluph?
Wye station, about 1 mile south-east of the centre.
Do you do evening food as well as the main meal?
We can cater as much or as little of the day as you like, from the wedding breakfast to evening food. Tell us what you have in mind.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain doesn’t generally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll recommend how to serve.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
For planners, venues and organisers
Throwing a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.

How we price wedding Mexican catering
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Travel, parking and access
- The length of service
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Details that help
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- What you’d like on the menu
- The venue or postcode
- The date and time of the event
Send us the date, your venue or TN25 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.
