About our wedding Mexican catering in Newbridge
Evening food needs to be quick and filling, and tacos or loaded nachos from our truck or trailer fit the bill. Popular choices include fresh guacamole and salsas, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast and quesadillas, which works well for engagement parties at home and weddings in a marquee or garden.
There is something special about a country wedding near Newbridge, and a food truck by the barn or marquee adds to it. Plan for access, soft ground and wet-weather cover for guests. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
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.
Questions from Newbridge
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you cater in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
Will you talk to our venue?
Of course. We will speak to your venue about access and timings.
What does wedding Mexican catering cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Tell us when the speeches will be
- Put us in touch with your venue
- Ask about your date as soon as you have one
- Tell us about guests with coeliac disease or severe allergies
On the day, we work with your coordinator or toastmaster, so you can enjoy yourselves.
Include your suppliers in the numbers.
