Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Clanville
Paella has a natural rhythm: the rice needs about 20 minutes and is best served immediately. We time it around your speeches and photos. For parties after a register office wedding and blessings and vow renewals, we can cook evening paella, canapé tapas and Spanish desserts.
A wedding in a small place like Clanville frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. Live paella is made for that: no kitchen, just a level, sheltered spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Everything is cooked from scratch at your wedding, not reheated, and served as soon as it’s ready.

Questions from Clanville
We’re having a ceremony at St Margaret's Chapel: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is generally elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
Is Clanville close to London?
Roughly 65 miles from the centre of London.
Do you cater for suppliers?
Yes. Include suppliers in your numbers and we’ll plan for them.
What does wedding paella catering cost?
Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a price.
How much paella per person?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.
How much space do you need?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
What if our speeches run late?
Tell us and we’ll adjust. We stay in touch with your coordinator so the paella is served fresh.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.

How it works
On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. At midsummer, sunset in Clanville is about 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.

Should I cook it myself?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
