About our wedding Mexican catering in Islington

We cater weddings in and around Islington, from garden celebrations to marquee receptions. Share your plans and we’ll suggest a menu. At weddings with lots of dietary needs and receptions after a small ceremony, we can serve quesadillas, tacos and evening tacos for your guests.

Couples in Islington often marry locally and hold the reception at a venue nearby. A food truck needs a courtyard or forecourt it can reach, so check vehicle access with the venue early. Parking and loading in London need planning, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

Catering for every guest

Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:

  • Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
  • Check the venue’s rules for outside caterers and vehicles
  • Count day and evening guests separately
  • Put us in touch with your venue

For a taco bar, fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests come up table by table if you like.

A wider choice of salsas and toppings fills out the taco bar.

Planners, venues and businesses

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.

For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.

What we need at the venue

Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:

  • Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
  • Permission from the venue or landowner
  • A serving spot close to the marquee or reception area

London streets around Islington can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

How it works

We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. By late September, sunset in Islington 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.

  1. Send us your wedding date, venue and numbers.
  2. We plan the wedding breakfast, evening food or both with you.
  3. We agree timings and access with the venue.
  4. We serve at the agreed points in the day.
  5. We clear our area once service ends.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us what power and water the site has
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
