Wedding Mexican catering in West Dean

Wedding Mexican catering in West Dean, served fresh

A Mexican menu makes mixed diets easier: we plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options and give allergen information for every dish. At receptions after an intimate ceremony and blessings and vow renewals, we’ll put together a menu of a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, tacos and evening tacos for your guests.

A wedding in a small place like West Dean often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a food truck comes into its own: no venue kitchen needed, just level, firm ground and a way in. Let us know about access, ground, power and water. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Wedding Mexican catering or something else?

A taco bar is less formal than a plated meal, but it can still feel like a celebration. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

Why book Mobile Mexican Catering in West Dean

  • A menu built around your guests
  • Allergen information for every dish
  • Book food, drinks or both

See our pricing or our guide to catering costs.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Catering for every guest

Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To make it work smoothly:

  • Ask whether your venue allows food trucks
  • Check your date with us early
  • Tell us about guests with coeliac disease or severe allergies
  • Collect dietary needs on the RSVP

After service, we clear our area; the evening carries on without us.

Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff, and we will set it out in the quote.

Common questions in West Dean

Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

Could you serve our guests after a service at The Parish Church of St Andrew?

Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.

Do you take everything away?

We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.

Can you cater in a back garden?

That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a photo and we will talk it through.

Do you have options for kids?

Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.

When should we book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.

Can you do gluten-free food?

Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?

Can you feed our photographer and band?

Just add them to your numbers. Let us know when they need feeding.

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:

  • The length of service
  • Guest numbers
  • The menu you choose
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery

Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

What to tell us

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:

  • Expected numbers
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
  • A picture of where we’d park

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.

What we need at the venue

  • Some distance from houses and neighbours

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.

Menu ideas

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

What happens on the day

We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your wedding. A winter wedding in West Dean gets dark early, at about 4:00pm in December, so evening guests will be queuing in the dark. Festoon lights by the truck help guests see the menu.

  1. First, we check availability for your date.
  2. You pick the menu with us.
  3. We confirm access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
  4. Food is served from the taco bar or the hatch.
  5. We serve, then pack down.
