As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Can you do our evening wedding food?
Yes. It’s our most popular wedding booking. Tell us your date and venue.

There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your wedding. We handle the cooking and serving. At a December wedding in Sun Rising, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:30pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Clear the route for the van
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Get permission for the van from the venue

Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
