How our wedding Mexican catering works in Etchingham
Evening food needs to be quick and filling, and tacos or loaded nachos from our food truck or trailer fit the bill. On the menu are fresh guacamole and salsas, quesadillas and a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, and it is a good fit for receptions after a small ceremony and food for evening guests.
Rural weddings around Etchingham have a charm of their own, and tacos served from a truck in a field add to it. Plan access, ground and cover in case of rain. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Before you choose a spot
We’ll be honest if a space will not work, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Getting married in Etchingham?
Etchingham is about 11 miles north-west of Hastings, in East Sussex. From the centre of Etchingham to the outskirts, wedding Mexican catering works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We serve in all 289 towns and villages in East Sussex. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 28 miles away.
With a ceremony at a church such as The Parish Church of St Nicholas and St Mary, the simplest plan is a reception close by, so guests are not travelling far before they eat. Service can start as guests arrive. Around Etchingham, historic houses include Bateman's (2.8 miles south-west). A listed house can make a beautiful backdrop, but many have firm rules on vehicles, so raise the food truck with them at your first visit. Couples near Etchingham have the High Weald National Landscape within about 3 miles, if a countryside setting appeals. Barns and fields there can be reached down narrow tracks, so we check the route with the venue.
For wedding Mexican catering in TN19, we plan around your venue and the route in. Local streets include High Street, Oxenbridge Lane and Church Hill; for a wedding at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. Close by, we cover weddings in Burgh Hill (1 mile north-east), Hurst Green (2 miles north-east), Silver Hill (2 miles east), Cooper's Corner (2 miles north-east) and Ticehurst (3 miles north-west). Larger places within reach include Hastings (11 miles south-east), Bexhill-on-Sea (11 miles south), Hailsham (13 miles south-west), Crowborough (12 miles west), St Leonards (12 miles south-east) and Uckfield (15 miles west).

Common questions in Etchingham
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Nicholas and St Mary?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you work with our venue?
Yes. We’ll speak to your venue about access and timings.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
How it works
Here’s how the day normally runs: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. For a summer wedding in Etchingham, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so evening tacos are generally served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting around the truck or trailer.
- First, we check availability for your date.
- You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
- Guests build their tacos at the taco bar or order at the hatch.
- We serve, then pack down.
Before we arrive
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send you a clear quote.
Planning help
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Confirm the venue’s catering rules early
- Tell us when the speeches will be
- Let us know about severe allergies in writing
- Have cover for guests if the weather turns
Evening food is served at the agreed time, such as after the cake is cut.
Include your suppliers in the numbers if you add them to the final count.
How it compares
A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen and a larger team. We bring our kitchen with us, and a taco bar feels more relaxed. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.
Why book with us
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Menus for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- A plan agreed before the day
See our prices page and the cost guide.
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
