Food Truck Weddings! (seattle)

Hi there!

Will guests be able to try food from both trucks, or just one?

Like with a traditional meal option on an RSVP card, you could do something similar to gauge how many guests would be interested in each option (or both!).

For example, you could have an image of a food truck with a taco beside it, if one option was a taco truck!

What food trucks are you getting for the reception?

I've done several events with multiple food trucks (not weddings, but eating is eating). You should plan that, if having multiple trucks, guests will want to visit at least two, most likely. Trucks that offer event catering will often suggest setting out their food on tables as a buffet. My personal opinion is that it takes away the fun of a truck - you just have a food buffet that happens to be hosted from a truck, not a kitchen. But it does speed up service. When I do multiple trucks I like to offer smaller items at each truck so people can try multiple things without filling up (sliders instead of full burgers, street tacos instead of burritos, etc.). And I definitely cut down the truck's menu to make decisions and serving go faster.

As for quantity, it depends on the number of trucks. If I'm doing mini items, I make sure that each truck has enough for at least 90% of guests. If they are serving larger portions, maybe 75% of guests (per truck). I hate for people to not get to eat what they want.
