How our wedding Mexican catering works in Margate
A food truck can make a colourful backdrop for photos, and guests enjoy seeing their food served fresh. On the menu are tacos, fresh guacamole and salsas and burrito bowls, and it suits sharing-style wedding meals and engagement celebrations.
Couples in Margate often keep it personal, with a marquee or a hall nearby. Tacos for the wedding breakfast or the evening suit that kind of day. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Wedding Mexican catering or something else?
Plated wedding meals need a kitchen and more staff. We bring our kitchen with us, and the style is more relaxed. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.

What happens on the day
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. At midsummer, sunset in Margate is about 9:15pm, so we can time the evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:45pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September.

- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

About the menu
Taco bar wedding breakfast
The taco bar is the main event, with every diet covered. You choose the fillings with us.
Salsas and guacamole
Freshly made salsas and guacamole for the taco bar.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
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 larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Getting married in Margate?
Margate is in Kent. Whether your wedding is in the middle of Margate or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Margate is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring wedding Mexican catering. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 15 miles away.
For guests travelling by train, the nearest station is Margate station, about 0.6 miles north-west. Say your vows at a church like Parish Church of St John the Baptist, then head to a garden, barn or marquee where the truck or trailer is waiting. We can set up while the photos are taken. Couples near the coast, within about a mile of Margate, sometimes want a beach feel. We need firm ground for the truck or trailer, so a clifftop lawn or venue car park may suit better than the sand.

It is about 64 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Could you come to a seaside event near Margate?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
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. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.

That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Do you cover Margate?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Margate is within our area. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
What if the photos overrun?
We plan for it. Food is served to order, so we can start when you’re ready.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
