Live corporate paella catering in Chesham

DIY paella versus live catering

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Corporate paella catering in Chesham, cooked live

Colleagues gather to watch the pans, and once it is ready, a queue moves fast because it’s served straight from the pan. For company summer parties and conferences and training days, we will put together a menu of vegan and vegetarian paella, bowl food and canapé tapas and more.

For businesses in Chesham, a summer party in the car park or garden is an easy win, if the site allows it. Your quote spells out exactly what’s included: menu, staff, crockery and anything else you choose, with no surprises on the day.

Working with your venue

For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

12 questions to ask before you book

Live paella or other catering?

Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella handles diets with separate pans. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, along with staff, extras and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Why choose Love Paella in Chesham

How it works

We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. For a Christmas party in Chesham, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:25pm.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Ensure we can park close by to unload
  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
