Wedding paella catering for Berwick events
About our wedding paella catering in Berwick
Mixed diets are easy at a paella wedding: each paella has its own pan, so every guest gets a proper hot main. Whether it’s blessings and vow renewals and weddings with lots of dietary needs, we will put together a menu of Spanish desserts, a paella wedding breakfast and canapé tapas and more.
A wedding in a small place like Berwick frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. Live paella is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a level, sheltered spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so the food is hot, fresh and part of the occasion.

Should I cook it myself?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

- Share your running order, including speeches
- Count day and evening guests separately
After service, we pack down our cooking area; any staff stay as long as agreed.
