Wedding Mexican catering for your wedding in Ruckinge
For weddings in Ruckinge and nearby, we can cater one part of the day or both main meals. Tell us your plans and we’ll suggest what fits. For receptions after an intimate ceremony and vow renewals and blessings, we will put together a menu of burrito bowls, evening tacos and quesadillas and more.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Ruckinge, and tacos served from a truck in a field add to it. Plan access, ground and cover in case of rain. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
How it works
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. In Ruckinge, midsummer sunset is about 9:15pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:00pm, so evening tacos are usually served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm in December, plan lighting around the truck or trailer.
- Send us your wedding date, venue and numbers.
- We plan the wedding breakfast, evening food or both with you.
- Timings are agreed with your venue.
- We serve at the agreed points in the day.
- We pack down and leave our area tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Planning help
Working with your venue
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
- Share your running order, including speeches
- Check the venue’s rules for outside caterers and vehicles
- Let us know about supplier meals
We keep in touch with your venue coordinator on the day, so you can enjoy yourselves.
Include your suppliers in the numbers if you add them to the final count.
Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Food, drinks or both
- The length of service
- Your choice of food and drinks
- The number of people
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Details that help
To speed things up, tell us:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Your menu ideas
- The venue or postcode
- Diets and allergies you know about
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.

Questions from Ruckinge
Is Ruckinge close to London?
It is about 52 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mary Magdalene?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a photo of the access and the space.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do you do a wedding bar?
You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving your guests. Your venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice will be needed for alcohol, and we will check that with you.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
Where the truck can go in Ruckinge
We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- A place for the truck or trailer near where guests are eating
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Menu ideas
- Guacamole and salsas
- Taco bar wedding breakfast
- Margarita bar
- Burritos and bowls
- Evening tacos
- Nachos to share
DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Wedding Mexican catering or something else?
Choosing between tacos and a traditional menu?, consider the venue, the diets and the style you want. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
