How we price wedding Mexican catering
These are the factors that matter most:
- Guest numbers
- Timings and hours
- What the venue already provides
- How many staff you need
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The date and rough timings
- The venue or postcode
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you’re ready, send a quick message through our quote form.
Wedding Mexican catering in Widley, 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 sharing-style wedding meals and evening wedding food, we can serve quesadillas, loaded nachos and fresh guacamole and salsas for your guests.
Rural weddings around Widley have a charm of their own, and tacos served from a truck in a field add to it. Plan for access, soft ground and wet-weather cover for guests. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Let us know about severe allergies in writing
- Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
- Put us in touch with your venue
- Plan a covered area for eating in case of rain
We park where the venue agrees, ideally where guests can see us.
Add our drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you and your venue.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- A serving point within easy walk of the reception
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

- Margarita bar
- Nachos to share
- Evening tacos
