The process
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. For a summer wedding in Bells Yew Green, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting by the van.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
