Wedding Mexican catering for your wedding in Potter's Forstal
Your wedding menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, alongside vegan choices like black beans or spiced mushrooms. It suits sharing-style wedding meals and rustic barn weddings, with evening tacos, fresh guacamole and salsas and burrito bowls.
A wedding in a small place like Potter's Forstal often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a food truck comes into its own: no kitchen, just firm ground and access. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Plan a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
- Connect us with your coordinator
- Confirm the venue’s catering rules early
After service, we clear our area; the evening carries on without us.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or staff, and we’ll set it out in the quote.
Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Potter's Forstal: your questions answered
Do you cater in the Kent Downs 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.
How far is Potter's Forstal from London?
It’s about 41 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.

Compared with formal catering, a taco bar is relaxed and sociable, but with good presentation it still feels special. There’s 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.
