DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Hog roasts are a wedding favourite, but it’s one dish, and some guests do not eat pork. A chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Planning for dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Plan something for guests we cannot cater for
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.
For planners, venues and organisers
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
