How our wedding Mexican catering works in Penwood
Mixed diets are easier with a Mexican wedding menu: there are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, corn tortillas for gluten-free guests and allergen information for every dish. For blessings and vow renewals and informal wedding breakfasts, we will put together a menu of quesadillas, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast and burrito bowls for your guests.
Rural weddings around Penwood have a charm of their own, and tacos served from a truck in a field add to it. Plan for access, soft ground and wet-weather cover for guests. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Catering for every guest
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Send us the running order and speech times
- Ask whether your venue allows food trucks
- Ask about your date as soon as you have one
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
On the day, we work with your coordinator or toastmaster, so you can enjoy yourselves.
Nachos to share work well later in the evening.
How the day works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a picture of the space if you are unsure. Golden-hour photos in Penwood at midsummer come around 9:25pm, so we can time the evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.
- We start with your date, venue, guest numbers and ideas for the day.
- We plan the food with you: wedding breakfast, evening food or both.
- We agree access, timings, power and water with you and your venue.
- We arrive, set up and serve the food at the agreed times.
- We pack down after service and leave our area tidy.
Before we arrive
- Find out what power and water are available
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Tell us when you want service to start

Is wedding Mexican catering right for your wedding?
Hog roasts are popular but tricky for mixed diets. Tacos cover them with separate fillings. There is no one-size-fits-all price for wedding Mexican catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

- What’s on the menu
- The number of people
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Timings and hours
Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Your questions about wedding Mexican catering in Penwood
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Michael Archangel: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
How far is Penwood from London?
It is about 56 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
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.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we’ll talk it through.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
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.
