What is included

The team delivers, sets up and cleans up, and offers a tasting session ahead of your wedding. Servers can attend to you and your guests. Because the truck needs access, check with your venue about parking, power and any limits on outside vehicles.

Planning notes

Ask how many guests the truck can serve quickly, and whether lines are managed or food is plated and served. Share dietary needs at your tasting. Plan a weather option for an outdoor setup, and decide whether you want the cafe to serve coffee in the morning or late in the evening.

Where they work

The business is based in Poughkeepsie, in the Hudson Valley. Ask about travel if your wedding is further away.

Food trucks suit a limited, well-chosen menu. Decide whether you want one main dish or several, whether you need vegetarian choices and when dessert should appear. Ask how long service takes for your guest count, and plan seating so guests can eat comfortably once they have their food.
