The process
When the rice goes in, it’s left alone. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell generally draws people over. For a summer wedding in Hundridge, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening paella is usually served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Ask about your date as soon as you have one
- Send us the running order and speech times
- Ask whether your venue allows outside caterers
- Tell us about suppliers who need feeding
After service, we pack down our cooking area; staff you’ve booked stay as agreed.
Canapés during the photos keep hunger at bay.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Whether you need crockery
- How long we’re needed on site
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
Tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are optional extras, so you only pay for what you want.
What we need to know
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- The address or venue name
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. You can use our quote form.
