How our wedding Mexican catering works in Skeete
Our truck or trailer suits marquee, barn and garden weddings, as long as we can drive in safely and park on level ground. For weddings with mixed diets and engagement parties at home, we can serve tacos, loaded nachos and a taco bar for the wedding breakfast for your guests.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Skeete, 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.
The process
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. At midsummer, sunset in Skeete is about 9:15pm, so we can time the evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:45pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September.
- First, we check availability for your date.
- You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm the plan with your venue.
- Food is served from the taco bar or the hatch.
- We serve, then pack down.
