About our wedding Mexican catering in Calcott
A taco bar at a wedding feels relaxed and generous. Everyone fills their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, and the queue turns into part of the fun. It suits evening wedding food and weddings in a marquee or garden, serving evening tacos, loaded nachos and burrito bowls.
A wedding in a small place like Calcott 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. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Dietary needs and planning tips
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Add your band and photographer to the numbers
- Have cover for guests if the weather turns
- Put us in touch with your venue
- Ask about your date as soon as you have one
If speeches or photos run over, tell us, and we’ll adjust when we serve.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added, with licensing checked with you and your venue.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

The process
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. For a summer wedding in Calcott, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so evening tacos are normally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:50pm.
- We start by checking your date.
- You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm the plan with your venue.
- Guests build their tacos at the taco bar or order at the hatch.
- After serving, we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Let us know the timings for the day

Should I do it myself?
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.
