Your questions about wedding paella catering in Holme Green
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Sebastian's Church?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is normally elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
What’s the nearest station to Holme Green for guests?
Wokingham station, about 1.6 miles north-west of the centre.
Is paella too casual for a wedding?
It can be as relaxed or as polished as you like, depending on how it is served.
What happens if it rains?
We need a covered spot, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We will agree a wet-weather plan with you.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan a pan with them in mind.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
Can you cater the whole day?
We can cater as much or as little of the day as you like, from the drinks reception to the evening.
Is live paella right for your wedding?
A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen and a large team. Live paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission, and suits a relaxed style. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.

The process
The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. In Holme Green, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, which means evening paella is normally served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- You tell us your date, venue, guest numbers and how you picture the day.
- Together we plan each course and confirm the price.
- We agree timings with you and your venue, including speeches and photos.
- On the day, we set up, cook in front of your guests and serve each course.
- We clear our cooking area, and staff stay as agreed.
Getting ready for the day
