About our wedding Mexican catering in Tenterden
We can cater the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. One option is a taco bar for the main meal and tacos or nachos later on. We serve evening tacos, quesadillas and a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, which works well for relaxed wedding breakfasts and engagement parties at home.
Weddings in a place like Tenterden often feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. A truck or trailer parked by the marquee fits right in. Let us know about gates and ground for the truck or trailer. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.
Planning the serving area
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- A serving spot close to the marquee or reception area
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- Space for guests to queue

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
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 enjoy the party, let us serve.
What’s on the menu
Burrito bowls
A burrito bowl is a good alternative to tacos.
Quesadillas
Crisp quesadillas cut into wedges.
FAQs for Tenterden
Could you serve our guests after a service at Parish Church of St Mildred?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Is Tenterden close to London?
It is about 45 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you liaise with the venue coordinator?
Yes, it makes life easier. Introduce us and we will sort the details.
Can a taco bar feel special?
It can be as relaxed or as polished as you like, depending on how it is served.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
