Wedding Food Truck Catering in Des Moines

Planning a wedding anywhere is stressful, but Des Moines couples know there’s an extra layer of pressure when you’re tying the knot along the Riverwalk or posing for photos at Pappajohn Sculpture Park. Long after the last dance, your guests will remember the food—so make sure they’re raving about it. Best Food Trucks specializes in wedding food truck catering in Des Moines, bringing the city’s favorite mobile kitchens straight to your reception, rehearsal dinner, or late-night snack station.

Our local lineup features crowd-pleasers that already serve hundreds of Iowans every week:

  • Tacos Degollado – Authentic Mexican street tacos that taste even better than they do after a night out in the East Village.
  • Tacos La Barca D.C. – Fresh-off-the-plancha meats and handmade tortillas that keep the dance floor fueled.
  • Ninas Tacos – Signature salsas and crunchy carnitas perfect for a Gray’s Lake sunset ceremony.
  • Taqueria La Esperanza – Birria and barbacoa worthy of a reception toast at the Iowa State Capitol steps.
  • Veggie Thumper – Plant-forward fare so delicious even your barbecue-loving uncle will ask for seconds.

Each truck comes battle-tested from farmers’ markets at Western Gateway Park to tailgates outside Principal Park, so they’re ready to handle everything from a black-tie gala at the World Food Prize Hall to a backyard bash in Beaverdale. We coordinate menus, timing, permits, and parking, leaving you free to focus on vows, photos, and that first spin to “Iowa Waltz.”

Want late-night nachos after the sparkler send-off? Gluten-free options for Grandma? A vegan taco bar for your Drake U friend group? No problem. Best Food Trucks curates a custom roster to match your guest list and budget, guaranteeing a seamless, unforgettable food experience.

Here’s how it works: guests scan a QR code at their table or from their phone while snapping shots of the skyline from the Des Moines Riverwalk.

It was so fun having the truck at our wedding! The truck arrived on time, people were served quickly, and the person working the truck was so kind and accommodating. We loved taking photos with the truck with our photographer and we got sent with lots of leftovers at the end of the night. All our guests continue to rave about the ice cream sandwiches!
