How our wedding Mexican catering works in Cadnam
The truck or trailer adds a splash of colour to the day, and guests enjoy seeing their food served fresh. It suits day-after wedding get-togethers and weddings in a marquee or garden, with tacos, evening tacos and quesadillas.
A wedding in a small place like Cadnam often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a food truck comes into its own: no venue kitchen needed, just level, firm ground and a way in. Let us know about access, ground, power and water. Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- The menu you choose
- Food, drinks or both
- Timings and hours
- Distance and access to the venue
What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The venue or postcode
The quickest way to a quote is to tell us about it on our contact page. Tell us about your wedding in Cadnam, and we will put together a menu and price.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Enquire early for summer Saturdays
- Think about a covered space for wet weather
- Tell us about guests with coeliac disease or severe allergies
- Connect us with your coordinator
Evening food is served at the agreed time, such as after the cake is cut.
A wider choice of salsas and toppings fills out the taco bar.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

FAQs for Cadnam
Which station should guests use for Cadnam?
Ashurst New Forest station, about 3.1 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary?
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.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can you do the wedding breakfast and evening food?
We can cater as much or as little of the day as you like, from the wedding breakfast to evening food. Share your plans and we’ll suggest a menu.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
