Wedding Mexican catering near Cold Harbour
Wedding Mexican catering in Cold Harbour, from our truck or trailer
Our food truck or trailer suits marquee, barn and garden weddings, as long as we can drive in safely and park on level ground. For sharing-style wedding meals and engagement parties at home, we’ll put together a menu of a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, burrito bowls and evening tacos and more.
Near Cold Harbour, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. 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, so service starts when you want it.
Working with your venue
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Cold Harbour? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Is wedding Mexican catering right for your wedding?
Hog roasts are popular but tricky for mixed diets. Separate fillings and toppings cover every diet. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. December weddings in Cold Harbour lose the light by about 3:50pm, so evening guests will be queuing in the dark. Festoon lights by the truck help guests see the menu.
- We start with your date, venue, guest numbers and ideas for 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.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
