About our wedding Mexican catering in Stansted
Our drinks bar can serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free options too. We’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue. At sharing-style wedding meals and gatherings the day after a wedding, we will put together a menu of loaded nachos, burrito bowls and quesadillas.
Rural weddings around Stansted have a charm of their own, and a food truck by the barn or marquee adds to it. Plan access, ground and cover in case of rain. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
Space, access and the venue
Every venue is different, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- A serving point within easy walk of the reception
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.

For event organisers in Stansted
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Throwing a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
How the day works
Your timings come first. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. By late September, sunset in Stansted is around 7:00pm, so an evening taco service may start as the light fades. In late May it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- You send us your wedding date, venue, numbers and how you see the day.
- We plan the food with you: wedding breakfast, evening food or both.
- Timings and where the truck or trailer will stand are agreed with your venue.
- On the day we set up and serve when your running order says.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Find out what power and water are available
- Share the running order, including any speeches
Getting a price
Send us the date, your venue or TN15 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and you’ll get menu ideas and a price. Just tell us about it on our contact page.

Stansted questions
Will you travel to a small place like Stansted?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Is the food very hot?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Which areas do you serve?
We cater across London and the South East, including Kent. Find your area.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will suggest the best set-up.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using 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.
Is wedding Mexican catering right for your wedding?
Pizza and bacon rolls are common evening choices. Evening tacos are something different. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
