How our wedding paella catering works in Crockhurst Street
We can cater your whole wedding day or one part of it: canapés, a tapas starter, a paella wedding breakfast, evening food and dessert. Popular choices include evening paella, table tapas and canapé tapas, and typical bookings are for weddings with a Spanish theme and wedding receptions after a small ceremony.
Near Crockhurst Street, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That’s exactly where live paella shines: no kitchen, just a level, sheltered spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated.

Common questions in Crockhurst Street
Do you come out to small places like Crockhurst Street?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Which station should guests use for Crockhurst Street?
Tonbridge station, about 2.5 miles west of the centre.
Can you provide dessert?
We do. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook under cover, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We plan for rain with you in advance.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.
Can you do sangria?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. A simple chicken paella is normally popular with children. Include children in your numbers.
What if our speeches run late?
We adapt. We stay in touch with your coordinator so the paella is served fresh.
Should I cook it myself?
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.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Space, weather and the venue
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- A separate open-sided gazebo if the meal is in a marquee
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Book early for summer Saturdays
- Check the venue’s rules for outside caterers
- Put us in touch with your venue
- Send us the running order and speech times
The pans are often set up where guests can see them, and it makes a great photo.
Crockery, cutlery and waiting staff are available.
Paella compared with other options
A hog roast is popular at weddings, but harder for vegetarian, vegan and halal guests. Paella covers them with separate pans. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

How it works
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we adjust the cooking so it’s still served fresh. At midsummer, sunset in Crockhurst Street is about 9:15pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:00pm.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and ideas.
- We build the menu course by course and send a quote.
- Timings are agreed with you and the venue, around speeches and photos.
- On the day, we set up, cook in front of your guests and serve each course.
- We clear our cooking area, and staff stay as agreed.
Preparing for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
