How it works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up the pans and burners, and get on with cooking and serving. At midsummer, sunset in Hammersmith is about 9:20pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We plan your menu course by course.
- Timings are agreed with your venue.
- We cook live on the day and serve each course.
- We clear our area; staff stay as booked.
Preparing for the day

- Tell us when you want to eat

Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Hammersmith
Your wedding menu is planned with you, course by course, around your guests, your venue and your budget. Whether it’s sharing-style wedding meals and evening wedding food, we can cook table tapas, Spanish desserts and a paella wedding breakfast for your guests.
Couples in Hammersmith often marry locally and hold the reception at a venue or garden nearby. Paella suits either, given a ventilated cooking spot. Plan parking and loading early. We plan the timings around your day, so the paella is ready when you want to eat.

Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
Hammersmith is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We’ll work around it.

How many different paellas?

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, every diet is easy. We suggest:
- Share your running order, including speeches
- Pick a serving style
- Ask about your date as soon as you have one
- Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
Evening guests can be served from fresh pans later on, timed for after the first dance.
Spanish desserts, or your own wedding cake, finish the meal.
What wedding paella catering costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Distance and access to the venue
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Waiting and bar staff
- The number of people
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. Every event gets its own quote.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Anything your venue supplies
- The address or venue name
- The date and time of the event
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
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.
Paella compared with other options
Food vans can create long queues. Paella is served quickly to many guests. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
Why book with us
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
- Every diet catered for, pan by pan
- Real theatre, not just catering
- Starters and desserts to complete the menu
