How our wedding Mexican catering works in Copythorne
Our drinks bar can serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free choices for drivers and children. We’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue. It works well for food for evening guests and sharing-style wedding meals, with tacos, loaded nachos and burrito bowls.
Near Copythorne, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A truck or trailer works well there: no venue kitchen needed, just level, firm ground and a way in. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Copythorne weddings: local tips
Copythorne is about 2 miles west of Totton, in Hampshire. Anywhere in SO40, we can bring the truck or trailer to you, as long as there’s access. Copythorne is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we can bring wedding Mexican catering. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 7 miles away.
With a ceremony at a church such as Church of St Mary, the simplest plan is a reception close by, so guests are not travelling far before they eat. Nearby historic houses include Landford Manor (4.6 miles north-west). Couples booking a stately setting should check where a truck or trailer is allowed to park before signing anything. A rural reception could be within reach, as the New Forest National Park is no more than about 5 miles from Copythorne. Firm ground and a clear way in matter more than the view for a food truck.
We serve at weddings all over SO40 and the streets around it. We can cater a wedding on streets such as Pound Lane, Vicarage Lane and Copythorne Crescent.

Questions from Copythorne
What’s the nearest station to Copythorne for guests?
Guests can use Ashurst New Forest station, about 3.1 miles south-east of Copythorne.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space.
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 cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?

London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
Do you cater in Copythorne?

Will you talk to our venue?

Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
- Have cover for guests if the weather turns
- Tell us how many evening guests to expect
- Ask about your date as soon as you have one
We pack down after service; the evening carries on without us.
Extra salsas and toppings make the taco bar look generous.
What we need at the venue
We will be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- A serving spot close to the marquee or reception area
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Popular choices
- Guacamole and salsas

What’s on the menu
Taco bar wedding breakfast
Warm tortillas, a choice of fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings, for every guest to build their own plate.
Salsas and guacamole
Freshly made salsas and guacamole.
Should I do it myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
For event organisers in Copythorne
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
How it works
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. Late-September weddings in Copythorne see the sun go down at about 7:10pm, so an evening taco service may start as the light fades. In late May it stays light until about 8:55pm.
