Organising for someone else?
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
What wedding Mexican catering costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Serving staff
- How many guests we’re serving
- Timings and hours
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Your menu ideas
- The date and rough timings
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not generally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. For a summer wedding in Budlett's Common, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening food is usually served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- You send us your wedding date, venue, numbers and how you see the day.
- Together we choose a taco bar, evening food or both, and we send a quote.
- We confirm access, the serving spot and the running order with the venue.
- We arrive, set up and serve the food at the agreed times.
- Once service is done, we pack away quietly.
How to prepare
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, use our quote form.

If things run late, and we will adjust when we serve.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

Budlett's Common: your questions answered
Do you come to events in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Five Ash Down Independent Chapel?
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.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Can you serve drinks at our wedding?
Yes, our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free choices too. Licensing is checked with you and the venue.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
