How our wedding paella catering works in Brook
Your wedding menu is planned with you, course by course, around your guests, your venue and your budget. Popular choices include canapé tapas, a paella wedding breakfast and evening paella, and we’re frequently booked for sharing-style wedding meals and wedding receptions after a small ceremony.
A wedding in a small place like Brook often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is exactly where live paella shines: no kitchen, just a level, sheltered spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.
Catering for every guest
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Book early for summer Saturdays
- Share your running order, including speeches
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
- Check the venue’s rules for outside caterers
The pans are frequently set up where guests can see them, which makes a lovely backdrop for photos.
Spanish desserts, or your own wedding cake, finish the meal.

Working with your venue
Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about parking, and we’ll tell you honestly whether live paella will work.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
Why choose live paella in Brook?
Plated wedding meals need a kitchen and more staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and permission, and feels more relaxed. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.

The process
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. In Brook, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means evening paella is usually served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.
- You tell us your date, venue, guest numbers and how you picture the day.
- Together we plan each course and confirm the price.
- We agree timings with you and your venue, including speeches and photos.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve each course as planned.
- Afterwards we clear our area; any staff you’ve booked stay as planned.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
