About our wedding Mexican catering in Upton
Mixed diets are easier with a Mexican wedding menu: we plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options and give allergen information for every dish. It works well for blessings and vow renewals and weddings with lots of dietary needs, with a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, burrito bowls and loaded nachos.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Upton, and tacos served from a truck in a field add to it. Plan access, ground and cover in case of rain. You will know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. For a summer wedding in Upton, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so evening tacos are typically served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 4:00pm.
- First, we check availability for your date.
- You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
- Guests build their tacos at the taco bar or order at the hatch.
- After serving, we clear away.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact for the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

Common questions in Upton
Can you serve near the sea around Upton?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Which station should guests use for Upton?
Guests can use Redbridge station, about 2.1 miles south of Upton.
Is a taco bar smart enough for a wedding?
Served well, it feels generous and special.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Upton weddings: local tips
Upton is about 2 miles north-west of Regents Park, in Southampton. Wherever your wedding is in the SO16 area, we can serve your guests, as long as there’s access. Upton is one of 40 towns and villages in Southampton we cover.
For guests travelling by train, the nearest station is Redbridge station, about 2.1 miles south. If you are marrying at a church near Upton, such as Church of St John, a reception in a garden, field or venue nearby keeps the day flowing. We can set up while the photos are taken. A rural reception could be within reach, as the New Forest National Park is no more than about 8 miles from Upton. Firm ground and a clear way in matter more than the view for a food truck. Couples near the coast, within about 5 miles of Upton, sometimes want a beach feel. We need firm ground for the truck or trailer, so a clifftop lawn or venue car park may suit better than the sand.
This part of Southampton takes in SO16, and we can cater your wedding anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. Whether your wedding is on Upton Lane, Romsey Road and Greenwood Avenue or anywhere nearby, we can bring wedding Mexican catering there, given access. We also serve at weddings in Nursling (1 mile south), Rownhams (1 mile east), Ashfield (1 mile north-west), Toothill (1 mile north) and Hillyfields (1 mile south). Further out, we also cater in Southampton (4 miles south-east), Shirley (3 miles south-east), Townhill Park (5 miles east), Midanbury (5 miles east), Thornhill (6 miles south-east) and Chartwell Green (5 miles east).

Comparing your options
