Benefits of Food Truck Wedding Catering

Posted: in Wedding Ideas
Choosing your caterer is one of, if not THE most important, decisions you'll make for your wedding. While everyone knows that the food has to be great, how the food will be served is just as essential. It's crucial to have your caterer serve the food in a manner that aligns with your wedding style. This choice will significantly add to your atmosphere- will it be posh and upscale or laid-back and fun? Maybe a bit of both?

With your wedding's vision in mind, you'll need to look at different catering options, which may include food trucks. In this article, we'll touch on some very good reasons to have a food truck cater your wedding!


What are the Advantages of Food Truck Wedding Catering?

There are many pros to hiring a food truck (or two) to cater your wedding. Chances are, whether you are looking for a full meal, snack, drink, or dessert catering, there is a food truck that would be a perfect fit.

Food Trucks are Unique

Food trucks and carts are not only trendy, but they also create a fun and exciting atmosphere for your reception. Booking a food truck will add another chance to incorporate the couple's personality and showcase their own unique flavor.

Guests usually enjoy ordering from a food truck more than service from standard catering. It’s an extra special experience for friends and family, which leaves them with a lasting memory!


Food Trucks are Affordable

Let's be honest, weddings can get expensive. It's important to offer your guests fantastic food, but it doesn't have to break the bank. This is where food trucks can be a great option.

Food trucks tend to be less expensive than traditional caterers. While some food trucks may charge more than certain standard caterers, the numbers don't lie: standard caterers typically charge around $85 per serving, whereas food trucks average about $25 per serving.



Food Trucks are Delicious

Though often inexpensive, food truck cuisine can be extraordinary! For the cost, you won't find anything that compares to this kind of catering.

With the food being prepared on-site, meals are fresher and offer better-than-restaurant quality meals for your crowd. It's easy to find a food truck that offers the perfect flavors for your wedding, no matter if you're looking for authentic or fusion dishes!


Food Trucks are Mobile

Food trucks and carts are essentially kitchens on wheels. Within their walls, a well-run food truck can serve amazing dishes and successfully cater to large crowds.

With most trucks needing little more than a place to park, these vendors can set up just about anywhere. This is a huge bonus for outdoor weddings and other venues that may not have a kitchen or prep space for caterers!

Renting a food truck can be an excellent option for many weddings, but for some receptions, a standard caterer may be more appropriate. It's essential to consider all aspects of using food trucks, including your guest's preferences and venue requirements, to ensure this type of catering is the best choice.
