Wedding Mexican catering in Horndean, from our truck or trailer
Your wedding menu is agreed with you, perhaps with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, plus vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. It suits big weddings with every diet and farm and barn venues, serving evening tacos, loaded nachos and fresh guacamole and salsas.
Couples in Horndean often keep it personal, with a marquee or a hall nearby. Tacos for the wedding breakfast or the evening suit that kind of day. We prepare everything fresh for your wedding and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Before you choose a spot
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on

Can I do a taco night myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
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’ll do the serving.

FAQs for Horndean
We’re having a ceremony at Saint Wilfrid's: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can you serve drinks at our wedding?
You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving your guests. Your venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice will be needed for alcohol, and we will check that with you.
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. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Will you talk to our venue?
Yes, and it saves you passing messages. Put us in touch and we will agree the details.
What if the timings change?
It happens at most weddings. Food is served to order, so we can start when you are ready, even if that moves.
Can a taco bar feel special?
It can be dressed up or kept relaxed, depending on the presentation and the venue.
For planners, venues and organisers
