Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Hounslow
A paella wedding makes mixed diets simple: each paella has its own pan, so vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests eat the same kind of meal as everyone else. Typical bookings include rustic barn weddings and weddings with lots of dietary needs, with evening paella, table tapas and canapé tapas.
London weddings around Hounslow often mean a ceremony at a church or register office, then a reception at a hired venue or a family garden. Paella suits either, given a ventilated cooking spot. In London, parking and loading need planning early. We bring everything we need to cook, and pack down our cooking area when service is finished.

Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.

Catering for every guest
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Choose pan-side or table service
- Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
- Ask whether your venue allows outside caterers
- Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
We keep in touch with your venue coordinator or toastmaster on the day, so you can enjoy yourselves.
Finish with Spanish desserts or your cake.
Planning the cooking area
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- An open-sided catering gazebo next to the marquee
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
As a London location, Hounslow is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Common questions in Hounslow
Could we have live paella in Inwood Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
What about parking in Hounslow?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We’ll work around it.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we take the right care.
Is paella smart enough for a wedding?
With the right presentation, it feels special: canapés, table tapas, good crockery and staff serving the tables.
What if the timings change?
It happens. The rice goes in at the last sensible moment, so it’s served at its best.
How many paellas should we have?
Most events have two or three: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We’ll help you decide the split.
Do you provide plates and cutlery?

Can you serve drinks?
We can make sangria, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
