Wedding Mexican catering for Hamsey events
Wedding Mexican catering in Hamsey, from our food truck or trailer
We plan the wedding menu with you, perhaps with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, plus vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. Popular choices include tacos, burrito bowls and quesadillas, which works well for evening wedding food and engagement parties at home.
Rural weddings around Hamsey have a charm of their own, and a food truck by the barn or marquee adds to it. Plan access, ground and cover in case of rain. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Step by step
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. By late September, sunset in Hamsey is around 7:05pm, so an evening taco service may start as the light fades. A late-May wedding keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- We start by checking 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.
- After serving, we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Give us a contact for the day
- Let us know the timings for the day

How it compares
A hog roast is popular at weddings, but harder for vegetarian and vegan guests. Separate fillings and toppings cover every diet. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Who books wedding Mexican catering in Hamsey?
A taco bar gets guests mingling.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:
- Weddings in a marquee or garden
- Receptions after a small ceremony
- Engagement celebrations
- Big weddings with every diet
It helps to add rail details to the invitations, as the nearest station is Cooksbridge station, about 0.8 miles north-west.
Before you book anyone
- VAT, if it applies
- Plates and napkins, or nothing at all
- How each diet is kept separate
- What the price includes, item by item
Should I do it myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Ask whether your venue allows food trucks
- Send us the running order and speech times
- Check your date with us early
- Think about a covered space for wet weather
Evening food is served at the agreed time, often after the first dance.
Include your suppliers in the numbers.

Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
