Wedding Mexican catering in Gillingham, 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. At day-after wedding get-togethers and informal wedding breakfasts, we will put together a menu of quesadillas, burrito bowls and evening tacos and more.
A large place like Gillingham offers churches, register offices, hotels and gardens. We need a reception venue where the truck or trailer can drive in and park on level ground. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Wedding Mexican catering or something else?
Buffets can mean food waiting for a while. Our food is served hot from the truck or trailer. There is no one-size-fits-all price for wedding Mexican catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

Step by step
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A winter wedding in Gillingham gets dark early, at about 3:50pm in December, so the evening food will be served after dark. Festoon lights by the truck help guests see the menu.
- Send us your wedding date, venue and numbers.
- Together we plan the food for your day.
- We agree timings and access with the venue.
- We serve at the agreed points in the day.
- We pack down and leave our area tidy.
Before we arrive

Your questions about wedding Mexican catering in Gillingham
How far is Gillingham from central London?
It’s about 30 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Is it possible to have you in Ambley Wood?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
What if our speeches run late?
We adapt. We stay in touch with your coordinator and serve when you’re ready.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
Can you do the wedding breakfast and evening food?
We can. A taco bar works well as a wedding breakfast, and tacos or nachos make good evening food.
Before you choose a spot
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Space for guests to queue
- A serving point within easy walk of the reception
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

For event organisers in Gillingham
