Wedding Mexican catering in Upton, from our truck or trailer

The truck or trailer adds a splash of colour to the day, and guests like watching their food being served. At weddings in a marquee or garden and rustic barn weddings, we’ll put together a menu of tacos, quesadillas and a taco bar for the wedding breakfast for your guests.

There’s something special about a country wedding near Upton, and a food truck by the barn or marquee adds to it. Plan access, ground and cover in case of rain. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

How we price wedding Mexican catering

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:

  • What the venue already provides
  • Your choice of food and drinks
  • How many staff you need
  • Parking and the route in

The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.

Details that help

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
  • Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
  • Your date and when you want service to start
  • Expected numbers

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.

Who books wedding Mexican catering in Upton?

Tacos work as the main meal or as evening food, so it fits most wedding plans.

A truck or trailer works for big and small events alike. Typical bookings include:

  • Evening wedding food
  • Engagement parties at home
  • Receptions after a small ceremony
  • Barn and farm weddings

Historic houses near Upton include Nunwell House (2.2 miles south-east) and Morton Manor (3 miles south-east). A listed house can make a beautiful backdrop, but many have firm rules on vehicles, so raise the food truck with them at your first visit.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Any travel, parking or access charges
  • Allergen information for each dish
  • The caterer’s food hygiene rating
  • Payment terms and deposit

Choosing a Mexican caterer

Comparing your options

Hog roasts are popular but tricky for mixed diets. Tacos cover them with separate fillings. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.

What you get with us

  • Options for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests
  • Set-up planned with you and your venue
  • Everything served fresh from the hatch
  • Catering across the Isle of Wight, including Upton

Read our pricing or our guide to catering costs.

Diets, allergies and planning

Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:

  • Ask about your date as soon as you have one
  • Confirm the venue’s catering rules early
  • Tell us about guests with coeliac disease or severe allergies
  • Include suppliers who need feeding

If speeches or photos run over, tell us, and we’ll adjust when we serve so the food is still hot.

Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added.

Planning the serving area

We’ll be honest if a space will not work, and help find another spot. What matters most:

  • A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
  • Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
  • A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue

Out-of-the-way places like Upton take a little more planning, so let us know about tracks, gates and power in good time.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Menu ideas

  • Burritos and bowls
  • Taco bar wedding breakfast
  • Margarita bar
  • Nachos to share
  • Evening tacos
  • Guacamole and salsas

What happens on the day

Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. A winter wedding in Upton gets dark early, at about 4:00pm in December, so the evening food will be served after dark. Ask your venue what outdoor lighting it has near where we’ll park.

  1. We start by checking your date.
  2. You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
  3. We confirm the plan with your venue.
  4. Food is served from the taco bar or the hatch.
  5. After serving, we clear away.

How to prepare

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
  • Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
  • Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Should I do it myself?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
