DIY paella versus live catering
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
