About our wedding paella catering in Brackenbury Village

We can cater your whole wedding day or one part of it: canapé tapas with the drinks, table tapas, paella for the wedding breakfast, evening food and desserts. Typical bookings include parties after a register office wedding and relaxed sharing-style wedding breakfasts, serving canapé tapas, evening paella and table tapas.

London weddings around Brackenbury Village often mean a ceremony at a church or register office, then a reception at a hired venue or a family garden. Paella suits either, given a ventilated cooking spot. Plan parking and loading early. We bring everything we need to cook, and pack down our cooking area when service is finished.

Is live paella right for your wedding?

A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen and a large team. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and permission, and suits a relaxed style. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

Why book with us

  • Hot food served quickly from the pan
  • Catering across Greater London, including Brackenbury Village
  • Sangria and bar staff available
  • Separate pans for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests

Before you choose a spot

We will agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
  • Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
  • A safe distance from anything that could catch

As a London location, Brackenbury Village is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

What we offer

  • Canapé tapas
  • Evening paella
  • Paella wedding breakfast
  • Sangria & bar staff
  • Table tapas
  • Dessert

Diets, allergies and planning

Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:

  • Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
  • Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
  • Put us in touch with your venue
  • Tell us how many evening guests to expect

We clear our cooking area away afterwards; staff you’ve booked stay as agreed.

Canapés during the photos keep hunger at bay.

The process

From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your wedding. Any tapas or canapés are served first as the rice is cooking. Golden-hour photos in Brackenbury Village at midsummer come around 9:20pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

  1. We check availability for your date.
  2. You pick the courses and dishes.
  3. We confirm everything with your venue.
  4. The pans cook while guests enjoy the drinks.
  5. We serve, then pack down.

Preparing for the day

  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area
  • Let us know the timings for the day

How we price wedding paella catering

Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:

  • Whether you need crockery
  • The paellas you choose
  • The number of people
  • How long we are needed on site

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

What we need to know

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • Which courses you have in mind
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • Diets and allergies you know about

It’s easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will send a clear, itemised quote and a suggested menu.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

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. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Brackenbury Village: your questions answered

Could we have live paella in Cathnor Park?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.

Which station should guests use for Brackenbury Village?

Shepherds Bush station, about 0.8 miles north-east of the centre.

What if the weather’s bad?

Rain doesn’t stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We will talk it through before the day.

Is paella too casual for a wedding?

It can be dressed up or kept relaxed, depending on how it’s served.

Who clears up?

We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

Can you cater the whole day?

Yes. Canapé tapas, table tapas, a paella wedding breakfast, evening food and desserts, or any part of that.

Is it really cooked live?

Yes, always. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.
