About our wedding paella catering in Harlington
We can do the whole day or just one part: canapé tapas with the drinks, table tapas, paella for the wedding breakfast, evening food and desserts. We cook Spanish desserts, table tapas and a paella wedding breakfast, and we are regularly asked to cater vow renewals and civil ceremonies and evening wedding food.
Couples in Harlington often marry locally and hold the reception at a venue or garden nearby. Paella suits either, given a ventilated cooking spot. In London, parking and loading need planning early. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and a queue moves quickly.

What else we do in Harlington
Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Give us separate day and evening numbers
- Book early for summer Saturdays
- Ask whether your venue allows outside caterers
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
Evening guests can be served from fresh pans later on, usually timed after the first dance.
Canapés during the photos keep hunger at bay.
What affects the price in Harlington
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- The paellas you choose
- How many guests are eating
- Parking and unloading
Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- The date and rough timings
- Which courses you have in mind
- Diets and allergies you know about
- A photo of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field

- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
