Wedding paella catering in Hurtmore, made fresh on the day

Near Hurtmore, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. Live paella is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a level, sheltered spot. Let us know about access and ground. The paella is served straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and a queue moves quickly.

If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site

Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Timings and hours
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- The paellas you choose
- The number of people
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- The date and time of the event
- The venue or postcode
- A photo of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field
