Wedding paella catering in Denham
Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Denham
Evening paella is a favourite: it is hot, filling and quick to serve, so the party keeps going. We’re frequently asked to cater parties after a register office wedding and evening wedding food, with table tapas, evening paella and canapé tapas.
Rural weddings around Denham have a magic of their own, and an open-air paella adds to it. Plan for access and a wet-weather cover. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and a queue moves quickly.

Denham questions
Is Denham close to London?
About 18 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like Denham?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
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 for them.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Where do you cater?
We cater across London and the South East, including Buckinghamshire. See all areas.
What space do you need to cook?
Less than you might think: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Is the paella gluten-free?
Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
What if photos overrun?
We plan for it. We time the rice to the actual running order, so it’s served at its best.

The process
We work to your timings. If things run behind, we adjust the cooking so it is still served fresh. In Denham, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so an evening paella for evening guests is usually served in daylight in high summer. 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.
- We cook live on the day and serve every course on cue.
- Afterwards we clear our area; any staff you’ve booked stay as planned.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where to park and unload
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Let us know the timings for the day

Dishes our guests love
Paella wedding breakfast
Two or three paellas, served from the pans or brought to the tables, with bread and salad.
Table tapas
Sharing tapas breaks the ice before the paella arrives.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Pick a serving style
- Include any suppliers you’re feeding
- Tell us when speeches will be
- Count day and evening guests separately
After service, we pack down our cooking area; staff you’ve booked stay as agreed.
A table tapas starter gets everyone sharing.
Space, weather and the venue
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we will say what we think.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
