About our wedding Mexican catering in Nettlestead
Evening guests want something hot, quick and filling, and tacos or nachos from the truck or trailer do the job without stopping the dancing for long. For big weddings with every diet and late-evening wedding food, we will put together a menu of burrito bowls, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast and fresh guacamole and salsas.
Rural weddings around Nettlestead have a charm of their own, and a food truck by the barn or marquee adds to it. Plan for access, soft ground and wet-weather cover for guests. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Common questions in Nettlestead
Do you cater in villages like Nettlestead?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Mary's Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
What if our speeches run late?
We plan for it. Food is served to order, so we can start when you’re ready.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space.
Can you handle dietary needs at our wedding?
Diets are planned in advance and kept separate. Ask any guests with severe allergies to speak to us first.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
