About our wedding Mexican catering in Hounsdown
Mixed diets are easier with a Mexican wedding menu: there are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, corn tortillas for gluten-free guests and allergen information for every dish. It works well for receptions after a small ceremony and day-after wedding get-togethers, serving tacos, loaded nachos and fresh guacamole and salsas.
Weddings in a place like Hounsdown often feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. A food truck by the marquee suits that kind of day. Tell us about access to the field or garden. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Questions from Hounsdown
Can you serve near the sea around Hounsdown?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Colbury Christ Church?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.
Can you cater for vegans and gluten-free guests?
We can. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
About the menu
Salsas and guacamole
Every taco gets salsa and guacamole.
Loaded nachos
A tray of nachos is easy to share.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
What happens on the day
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Late-September weddings in Hounsdown see the sun go down at about 7:10pm, so an evening taco service may start as the light fades. In late May it stays light until about 8:55pm.

Wedding Mexican catering or something else?
A taco bar is less formal than a plated meal, but it can still feel like a celebration. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
