Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Camden Town
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. On the menu are canapé tapas, a paella wedding breakfast and Spanish desserts, and we are often booked for farm and barn venues and evening wedding food.
In Camden Town, getting guests from ceremony to reception is part of the plan. The paella can be cooking while everyone makes their way over, ready to serve on arrival. We serve straight from the pan, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once it’s ready.

Questions from Camden Town
Could we have live paella in Lewis Cubitt Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
We are having a ceremony at St Michael's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking usually happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
What about pudding?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan a pan with them in mind.
When do you arrive?
We get there in good time to set up. The rice itself takes about 20 minutes, and we time it to your schedule.
Can you do our whole wedding menu?
Yes. Canapé tapas, table tapas, a paella wedding breakfast, evening food and desserts, or any part of that.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
What does wedding paella catering cost?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually want. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a price.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
