Step by step
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. Late-September weddings in Istead Rise see the sun go down at about 7:00pm, so an evening taco service may start as the light fades. In late May it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- Tell us the date, the venue, day and evening numbers and your plans.
- You get a suggested wedding menu and a quote to match.
- We agree access, timings, power and water with you and your venue.
- On the day, we set up and serve on cue, around speeches and photos.
- Once service is done, we pack away quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
