There is something special about a country wedding near Waltham Chase, and tacos served from a truck in a field add to it. Plan for access, soft ground and wet-weather cover for guests. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.
How the day works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps. December weddings in Waltham Chase lose the light by about 4:00pm, so evening guests will be queuing in the dark. Festoon lights by the truck help guests see the menu.
- Tell us the date, the venue, day and evening numbers and your plans.
- You get a suggested wedding menu and a quote to match.
- We agree access, timings, power and water with you and your venue.
- We arrive, set up and serve the food at the agreed times.
- We pack down after service and leave our area tidy.
How to prepare
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
How to get a price
Send us the date, your venue or SO32 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and you will get menu ideas and a price. Just send a quick message through our quote form.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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 anything containing allergens.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
