Things to Consider When Renting Food Trucks for your Wedding
At first glance, a food truck wedding can seem a lot more cost-friendly than a traditional caterer—the latter averages at about $100 per person. With an estimated $15 per person, however, food trucks seem like an obvious choice, until you realize that you’re comparing apples to oranges.
A traditional catering service will typically include rentals, staffing, beverages, and dessert service. Food trucks, on the other hand, bring their own food and truck—and pretty much nothing else. They’re not helping you set up the tables, they’re not providing china, no one is pouring water for guests. Think about what your guests will enjoy more: munching on delicious food or enjoying a small bite every now and then?
