Wedding Mexican catering in Derringstone, served fresh

A wedding in a small place like Derringstone often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A truck or trailer works well there: no venue kitchen needed, just level, firm ground and a way in. Let us know about access, ground, power and water. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Tell us about guests with coeliac disease or severe allergies
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
- Count day and evening guests separately
- Think about a covered space for wet weather
If speeches or photos run over, tell us, and we’ll adjust when we serve.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or staff, and we will set it out in the quote.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
