Live wedding paella catering in Glebe Farm
How our wedding paella catering works in Glebe Farm
Sharing from big pans suits relaxed weddings, especially with long tables and outdoor venues. It feels generous without being stuffy. Popular choices include canapé tapas, Spanish desserts and a paella wedding breakfast, and we are regularly asked to cater spanish-themed and destination-style weddings and food for evening guests.
In Glebe Farm, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a lovely, personal choice. A huge pan on the lawn fits right in. Let us know about access for the van. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated.

Diets, allergies and planning
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. A few tips:
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
- Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
- Tell us when speeches will be
- Choose pan-side or table service
Fresh pans can be cooked for evening guests, usually timed after the first dance.
Table tapas make a sociable starter.
The process
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you are free to enjoy your wedding. Any tapas or canapés are served first as the rice is cooking. Golden-hour photos in Glebe Farm at midsummer come around 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- Send us your wedding date, venue and numbers.
- Together we plan each course.

- On the day, we cook and serve each course.

Your questions about wedding paella catering in Glebe Farm
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking usually happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station should guests use for Glebe Farm?
The closest is Woburn Sands station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Include children in your numbers.
What if photos overrun?
We adapt. We keep in touch with your venue on the day and time the rice so it’s served at its best.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop us, as long as there is a ventilated cover. We’ll make a plan B with you.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, while the rice is cooking.
