Wedding paella catering in Amersham, made fresh on the day
We can do the whole day or just one part: canapé tapas with the drinks, table tapas, paella for the wedding breakfast, evening food and desserts. Whether it’s farm and barn venues and garden and marquee weddings, we’ll put together a menu of table tapas, a paella wedding breakfast and Spanish desserts.
For a wedding in Amersham, a marquee in a family garden or a hall with outside space keeps things personal. Live paella suits that kind of day. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included, with each paella cooked in its own pan.

How it works
We get there well before serving, unload, set up the burners and prepare the stock. Your guests are welcome to watch as the paella takes shape. For a summer wedding in Amersham, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an evening paella for evening guests is typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.
- Send us your wedding date, venue and numbers.
- Together we plan each course.
- Timings are agreed with your venue.
- We cook live on the day and serve each course.
- We clear our area; staff stay as booked.
How to prepare
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
