For event organisers in Kingsash

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Kingsash? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.

How we price wedding paella catering

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:

  • Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
  • The number of people
  • The length of service
  • Parking and unloading

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

What to tell us

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • Expected numbers
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
  • The date and time of the event
  • The courses you’d like

Send us the date, your venue or HP16 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.

Kingsash is about 5 miles north-west of Chesham, in Buckinghamshire.

Planning the cooking area

We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:

  • A cooking spot outside the marquee, not inside it
  • Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

It can be as relaxed or as polished as you like, depending on presentation and service.

How much is live paella catering?

It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the courses, staff and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.

Is halal food available?

Yes, on request. Let us know your halal numbers, and we will cook a separate pan.

What happens on the day

The cooking is part of the entertainment. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook. At midsummer, sunset in Kingsash is about 9:25pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

  1. You tell us your date, venue, guest numbers and how you picture the day.
  2. Together we plan each course and confirm the price.
  3. We agree timings with you and your venue, including speeches and photos.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve every course on cue.
  5. We pack down our cooking area, with staff staying as long as agreed.

How to prepare

  • Plan cover in case of rain
  • Ensure we can park close by to unload
  • Give us a contact for the day
