Wedding Mexican catering in Standen, from our truck or trailer
Add our Mexican drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free options too. We will talk licensing through with you and your venue. It suits day-after wedding get-togethers and receptions after an intimate ceremony, serving a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, tacos and burrito bowls.
Near Standen, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. A truck or trailer works well there: no venue kitchen needed, just level, firm ground and a way in. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Count day and evening guests separately
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
- Have cover for guests if the weather turns
We park where the venue agrees, ideally where guests can see us, which makes a good photo.
Extra salsas and toppings make the taco bar look generous.

FAQs for Standen
What’s the nearest station to Standen for guests?
Headcorn station, about 2.6 miles north-west of the centre.
Is Standen close to London?
About 41 miles from central London, and we cover it.
What does wedding Mexican catering cost?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.
Do you work with our venue?
Of course. We will speak to your venue about access and timings.
Can you feed our photographer and band?
Yes. Include suppliers in your numbers and we’ll plan for them.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t generally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Can a taco bar feel special?
Served well, it feels generous and special.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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’ll do the serving.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
