Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
What happens on the day
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. In Little Kimble, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting by the van.
- First, tell us about your wedding.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Let us know the serving time
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Napkins or wet wipes by the van are a kindness to anyone in their wedding best.
