DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Wedding Mexican catering in Gilbert Street, from our truck or trailer
We can do the wedding breakfast, evening food, or the two together. One option is a taco bar for the main meal and tacos or nachos later on. It works well for receptions after a small ceremony and day-after celebrations, with loaded nachos, fresh guacamole and salsas and burrito bowls.
A wedding in a small place like Gilbert Street often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a food truck comes into its own: no kitchen, just firm ground and access. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Serving staff
- What the venue already provides
- What’s on the menu
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers

- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and you’ll get menu ideas and a price. Just tell us about it on our contact page.

Organising for someone else?
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Step by step
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. For a summer wedding in Gilbert Street, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so evening tacos are typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting around the truck or trailer.
- Send us your wedding date, venue and numbers.
- We plan the wedding breakfast, evening food or both with you.
- Timings are agreed with your venue.
- We serve at the agreed points in the day.
- We clear our area once service ends.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
