Wedding Mexican catering in Copnor, served fresh
A food truck can make a colourful backdrop for photos, and guests enjoy seeing their food served fresh. We serve loaded nachos, burrito bowls and evening tacos, and it is a good fit for day-after celebrations and late-evening wedding food.
A farm or garden wedding near Copnor suits a food truck. We will need level, firm ground and a way to reach it, plus power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

How we price wedding Mexican catering
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- The menu you choose
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
What to tell us
To speed things up, tell us:
- A picture of where we’d park
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, fill in our quote form.
How it works
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. December weddings in Copnor lose the light by about 4:00pm, so evening guests will be queuing in the dark. Festoon lights by the truck help guests see the menu.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We plan the wedding breakfast, evening food or both with you.
- Timings are agreed with your venue.
- On the day, we set up and serve on cue.
- We clear our area once service ends.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Name one person we can ask on the day

Copnor: your questions answered
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Alban: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
How far is Copnor from central London?
Roughly 63 miles from the centre of London.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
How much is a food truck for an event?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will suggest mild options.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Give us separate day and evening numbers
- Share your running order, including speeches
- Check your date with us early
- Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
We serve evening food when the running order says, such as after the cake is cut.
A wider choice of salsas and toppings fills out the taco bar.

How it compares
