About our wedding paella catering in Kingston Blount
Your wedding menu is planned with you, course by course, to suit your guests, venue and budget. For rustic barn weddings and receptions after an intimate ceremony, we will put together a menu of canapé tapas, evening paella and a paella wedding breakfast.
A wedding in a small place like Kingston Blount frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. Live paella is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a level, sheltered spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once it is ready.

Kingston Blount questions
Do you come out to small places like Kingston Blount?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Is Kingston Blount close to London?
Roughly 38 miles from the centre of London.
How many different paellas?
Two or three covers most guests. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we’ll suggest the mix.
Can we try the food first?
Tell us you’d like a tasting when you enquire, and we will explain how it works.
What if our speeches run late?
We adapt. We stay in touch with your coordinator and time the rice so it is served at its best.
How much space do you need?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Is halal food available?
Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
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.
Planning the cooking area
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
