Wedding paella catering for Heston events
Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Heston
Your wedding menu is planned with you, course by course, to suit your guests, venue and budget. Typical bookings include barn and farm weddings and marquee and garden weddings, serving evening paella, canapé tapas and a paella wedding breakfast.
In Heston, getting guests from ceremony to reception is part of the plan. Paella can be cooking while they’re on the move, so it is ready when they arrive. You’ll know exactly what’s included before booking: the menu, the staff and any extras.

Space, weather and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
Heston 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.

Should I cook it myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
If you are weighing up paella against a traditional menu, think about your venue, your guests’ diets and the feel of the day. 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
- Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available
- Cooking your guests will gather round to watch
- Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts

Getting married in Heston?
Heston is about 2 miles south of Southall, in Greater London. Across the TW5 area, we will come to your venue or garden. Heston is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. You can also see our page for London, about 12 miles away.
If you are marrying at a church near Heston, such as St Leonard's Church, a reception in a garden, marquee or hired venue nearby keeps the day flowing: we can be cooking during the photos, so it’s ready as guests arrive.

Heston questions
Is parking a problem for events in Heston?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We will plan unloading around it.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Leonard's Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is normally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
Is halal food available?
Yes, we do. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.
How many different paellas?
Usually two or three, so every guest has a choice. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we will suggest the mix.
Will there be enough food?
Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Tell us what else is being served. See how much paella per person.
What space do you need to cook?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.
Which areas do you serve?
We cater across London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.
