What happens on the day

We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. For a summer wedding in Frogmill, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening paella is normally served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.

  1. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We plan your menu course by course.
  3. Timings are agreed with your venue.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve each course.
  5. We clear our area; staff stay as booked.

Preparing for the day

  • Leave space around the cooking area
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking

Live paella or other catering?

Choosing between paella and a traditional menu?, think about your venue, your guests’ diets and the feel of the day. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

What you get with us

  • Drinks service on request
  • A quote that spells everything out
  • Starters and desserts to complete the menu
  • Crockery and waiting staff if you need them

For planners, venues and organisers

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.

  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • How many staff you need
  • Plates, cutlery and glassware
