Wedding Food Truck FAQ

Do I need a permit to host a food truck at my wedding? 

Yes, you may need a permit to have a food truck at your wedding, depending on your location and local regulations. Many cities and municipalities require permits for food trucks to operate at events, including weddings. It's essential to check with your local government or health department to understand the specific requirements and obtain the necessary permits. Working closely with the food truck vendor and obtaining any required permits ensures that your wedding festivities go smoothly and in compliance with local laws.

What do I need to consider when it comes to parking the food truck? 

Should your event feature the main meal served from a food truck, selecting an appropriate parking space becomes crucial. This space should be adequately sized to accommodate the food truck while remaining easily accessible to your guests' tables. Ensuring that attendees don't have to venture too far from the heart of the celebration to enjoy their meals is key. Additionally, consider venue accessibility in your planning. For instance, iconic food trucks like LA's beloved Kogi BBQ have certain limitations. These trucks may not be able to navigate steep hills with a 15% grade or higher. Factoring in such considerations ensures a seamless experience for both the culinary aspect of your event and the convenience of your guests.
