    Post-Reception Snacks Made Easy

    NYFTA made the last details of my wedding reception completely stress-free, and our guests absolutely loved the bonus round of being served a fresh-cooked meal before hopping on the shuttle back to the hotel!

    Great Food Trucks

    The New York Food Truck Association was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding catering. From the very first interaction, their communication was quick, attentive, and incredibly helpful as we navigated the planning process. They truly went above and beyond, thinking of all the little details to make our special day perfect. The quality of their work and service was premium - they provided amazing, high-end food trucks that offered a white-glove experience for our guests. We were thrilled with how attentive and professional their team was throughout the entire event. Our guests are still raving about the delicious food and wonderful experience. We highly recommend the New York Food Truck Association for any couple looking for top-notch catering for their wedding.

    Food Trucks at my Wedding

    The New York Food Truck Association was an exceptional choice for our wedding catering. Their communication style was easy, precise, helpful, and professional from the very beginning. The quality of their work and value was simply outstanding - the food they served was delicious, and they were punctual and well-organized throughout the event. They were extremely willing to adjust to some schedule changes as the venue needed an earlier start, and they provided the necessary staffing to allow me to have the food truck outside while also serving the truck food indoors. I only provided my event coordinator with the type of food I was looking for, and he was able to give me a great variety of choices. The truck that was selected arrived on time, the staff were beyond kind, and they even allowed my husband and I to take photos in the vehicle! Overall, the New York Food Truck Association went above and beyond to make our wedding day a huge success.


Yes! After filling out our event catering form an event coordinator from our team will reach out. Please discuss any allergies or restrictions with the event coordinator. All of our trucks have gluten and dairy-free options available.
Unfortunately, we cannot schedule rain dates as trucks have to pass up other opportunities and purchase food for the event.
Given the nature of food products and other passed up opportunities by the truck, any cancellation of this contract will incur a 50% cancellation fee (based on the total contracted amount) if the cancellation occurs 14 days prior to the event. If the event is canceled within fourteen (14) days prior to the event for any reason the client will be responsible for the full amount of the contract.
Yes, we are able to provide a COI and you just need to provide us with the name and address of who you would like listed on the policy.
Unless you are able to secure a location for the truck, they will park as close as possible to your desired location. If you need the truck to be in a very specific location and are unable to secure a parking spot, you can speak to us about our spot holding services ($1,000-$1,500) which can be added to your booking and will ensure a specific spot is available. Depending on the location, a special event parking permit might be required through the city and we would be able to handle that as well ($5,500). The special event parking permit would be able to fit about 4 trucks.
NYFTA can process payment via Check or ACH for no additional fee. We can also accept credit card payments but those would be subject to a 3.5% convenience fee. We require that contracts be paid in full upon signing. Our Food Truck vendors are reserving dates (in favor of other opportunities) and arrangements are immediately set in motion upon signing.
Typically, each booking comes with a 3-4 hour serving window. If you need the truck for an extended period of time there could be an additional fee depending on the total portions
Once we agree on the truck(s) selection and pricing, we will send over an event portal for you to review the booking and sign off in order to confirm. After that you are all set and an invoice will be sent over.
Yes, NYFTA only works with food trucks that have health permits, insurance, and have been issued an ‘A’ letter grade from the New York Department of Health. Our members are personally vetted and carefully selected to ensure they meet the highest degree of food quality and hospitality. All certificates of insurance are kept on file and can be provided upon request.
