Your questions about wedding paella catering in Harmans Water
Which station should guests use for Harmans Water?
The closest is Martins Heron station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Paul?
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.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
What space do you need to cook?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
Do you cover Harmans Water?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Harmans Water is within our area. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
What about supplier meals?
Just add them to your numbers. Tell us when they’ll eat.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
How much paella per person?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
- Send us the running order and speech times
- Ask about your date as soon as you have one
- Confirm the venue’s catering rules early
If speeches or photos run over, tell us, and we will adapt the timing so it’s still served fresh.
We can provide crockery and waiting staff if your venue does not.
Live paella or other catering?
Hog roasts are popular but tricky for mixed diets. Separate paella pans cover every diet. Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed before you book.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
The menu, dish by dish
Table tapas
A tapas starter gets tables talking.
Desserts
A sweet finish: Spanish desserts or your own cake.
How it works
Service is quick: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so large groups are fed quickly. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. In Harmans Water, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so an evening paella for evening guests is usually served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- We check availability for your date.
- You choose canapés, tapas, paellas and desserts.
- We confirm the plan with your coordinator.
- Guests watch the paella cook during the reception.
- We serve, then pack down.
How to prepare
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
