How our wedding paella catering works in Kingsley Green
Evening paella is a favourite: hot, filling and served quickly from the pan, so the party keeps going. We are frequently asked to cater food for evening guests and marquee and garden weddings, serving a paella wedding breakfast, table tapas and canapé tapas.
Rural weddings around Kingsley Green have a magic of their own, and an open-air paella adds to it. Plan access and cover in case of rain. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once it’s ready.

FAQs for Kingsley Green
Do you cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Margaret?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is usually elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
What does wedding paella catering cost?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually want. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
Can you cook indoors?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.
Do you cater in Kingsley Green?
Yes, we do. Kingsley Green is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you offer tastings?
Mention a tasting in your enquiry, and we will talk you through it.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.

Prices and what affects them
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Whether you need crockery
- Timings and hours
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
Details that help
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Where the event is
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
- The courses you’d like
- The date and rough timings
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
The process
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, set up and start cooking, your guests watch the rice cook, and we serve straight from the pan when you are ready to eat. At midsummer, sunset in Kingsley Green is about 9:20pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- Share your date, venue, numbers and plans for the day.
- We plan a menu with you, course by course, and confirm a quote.
- Timings are agreed with you and the venue, around speeches and photos.
- On the day, we set up, cook in front of your guests and serve each course.
- Afterwards we clear our area; any staff you’ve booked stay as planned.
How to prepare
- Leave space around the cooking area
- Give us a contact for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
