About our wedding Mexican catering in Kilndown
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. Popular choices include loaded nachos, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast and tacos, which works well for receptions after a small ceremony and marquee and garden weddings.
A wedding in a small place like Kilndown often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a food truck comes into its own: no venue kitchen needed, just level, firm ground and a way in. Let us know about access, ground, power and water. Everything is prepared fresh for your wedding and served from our food truck or trailer.
What wedding Mexican catering costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Whether you need disposables
- The length of service
- How many staff you need
What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

Kilndown weddings: local tips
Kilndown is about 8 miles south-east of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in Kent. We serve at weddings in homes, gardens and venues in Kilndown. We cover 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Kilndown to Brighton (30 miles away).
With a ceremony at a church such as Christ Church, the simplest plan is a reception close by, so guests aren’t travelling far before they eat. Some couples near Kilndown might slip away to Bewl Water for a few photos between the ceremony and the meal. Couples near Kilndown have the High Weald National Landscape within about 5 miles, if a countryside setting appeals. Barns and fields there can be reached down narrow tracks, so we check the route with the venue.

Local streets include Church Road, Beresford Close and Chicks Lane; for a wedding at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park.

Kilndown questions
Is Kilndown close to London?
It’s about 36 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
What if the timings change?
We adapt. We keep in touch with your venue on the day and serve when you are ready.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you do evening food as well as the main meal?
We can cater as much or as little of the day as you like, from the wedding breakfast to evening food. Share your plans and we will suggest a menu.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Why choose wedding Mexican catering in Kilndown?
Evening food is often pizza or bacon rolls. Tacos and loaded nachos feel a bit more special. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.

For event organisers in Kilndown
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not usually stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. In Kilndown, midsummer sunset is about 9:15pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:00pm, so evening tacos are generally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- We start with your date, venue, guest numbers and ideas for the day.
- Together we choose a taco bar, evening food or both, and we send a quote.
- Timings and where the truck or trailer will stand are agreed with your venue.
- On the day we set up and serve when your running order says.
- Once service is done, we pack away quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Think about a covered space for wet weather
- Confirm the venue’s catering rules early
- Enquire early for summer Saturdays
- Add your band and photographer to the numbers
We park where the venue agrees, ideally where guests can see us, which makes a good photo.
A wider choice of salsas and toppings fills out the taco bar.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.

Planning the serving area
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
