Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Put bins near the van
- Count suppliers working late
- Ask your venue about catering vans first
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
Sending tables up in turn keeps the queue short if you have plenty of guests.
A covered route from the marquee to the van helps if it rains.

Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of Christ the Cornerstone: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Can the van park by the marquee?
Often, if the ground is firm and the venue agrees. We will check access with you and the venue.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.

How the day works
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your wedding. Winter weddings in Milton Keynes are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
