Near you in Caversham

Wedding settings across Reading
With 18 villages and hamlets as well as Caversham, Norcot and West Reading, Reading has plenty of countryside wedding settings. Whatever you choose, we agree the cooking spot with your venue.
Caversham: If you are marrying at a church near Caversham, such as Grace Church, a reception in a garden, marquee or hired venue nearby keeps the day flowing: the paella can be cooking while you have photos taken, so it is ready as guests arrive. For outdoor photos, Sonning Hill is close by. Golden-hour photos in Caversham at midsummer come around 9:25pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
DIY paella versus live catering
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.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Choose pan-side or table service
- Include any suppliers you’re feeding
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
- Connect us with your coordinator
The pans are often set up where guests can see them, and it makes a great photo.
Table tapas make a sociable starter.
Organising for someone else?
Organising a club, school or community event in Reading? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
How we price wedding paella catering
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- The length of service
- Your choice of paellas
- Distance and access to the venue
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
What to tell us
The more we know about your wedding, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- The address or venue name
- The courses you’d like
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- A photo of the space, if you can
To get a price, fill in our quote form. Tell us about your wedding in Reading, and we’ll put together a menu and price.
