For a Christmas party in Hyde End, it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:25pm.

The menu, dish by dish
Canapé tapas
One-bite tapas served by staff.
Paella lunches
A choice of paellas, quick to serve to a big team.
Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
- Share the timings for food
- Collect dietary needs when people sign up
- Think about shade and seating
We adapt if timings change.
Crockery and staff can be added.
Working with your venue
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, 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.
