Wedding Mexican catering in Dean
How our wedding Mexican catering works in Dean
Our drinks bar can serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free options too. We will go through the licensing with you and your venue. It suits engagement celebrations and weddings with lots of dietary needs, serving a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, quesadillas and fresh guacamole and salsas.
A wedding in a small place like Dean often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a food truck comes into its own: no venue kitchen needed, just level, firm ground and a way in. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Everything is prepared fresh for your wedding and served from our food truck or trailer.
