Your wedding menu is planned with you, course by course, around your guests, your venue and your budget. We are frequently asked to cater garden and marquee weddings and wedding receptions after a small ceremony, serving evening paella, a paella wedding breakfast and Spanish desserts.
Rural weddings around Eton Wick have a magic of their own, and an open-air paella adds to it. Plan for access and a wet-weather cover. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

Step by step
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your wedding. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. In Eton Wick, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means evening paella is typically served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- Share your date, venue, numbers and plans for the day.
- We plan a menu with you, course by course, and confirm a quote.
- 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.

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards

Canapés during the photos keep hunger at bay.
Where we can cook in Eton Wick
Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so we need a suitable spot. These are the things we check:
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Level ground for the pans and burners
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think.

How we price wedding paella catering
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- How many courses
- Timings and hours
- The paellas you choose
Tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are optional extras, so you only pay for what you want.
What to tell us
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Anything your venue supplies
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- The date and rough timings
- A picture of the space, if you can
Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.
DIY paella versus live catering
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
