About our wedding paella catering in Knightsbridge
The smell of saffron and garlic drifting across a garden or barn gets guests excited about the meal long before it’s served. On the menu are evening paella, table tapas and canapé tapas, and we are frequently booked for garden and marquee weddings and rustic barn weddings.
In Knightsbridge, getting guests from ceremony to reception is part of the plan. Paella can be cooking while they’re on the move, so it’s ready when they arrive. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

Dishes our guests love
Evening paella
Evening paella is hot, filling and fun.
Paella wedding breakfast
A choice of paellas, served at the pans or to the tables, with bread and salad.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.

Big or small, live paella works well. Common bookings include:

Step by step
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you are free to enjoy your wedding. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first as the rice is cooking. In Knightsbridge, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, which means evening paella is normally served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- First, we check your date.
- You choose canapés, tapas, paellas and desserts.
- We confirm the plan with your coordinator.
- Guests watch the paella cook during the reception.
- We serve, then pack down.
Getting ready for the day
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking

Prices and what affects them
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Guest numbers
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- How long we are needed on site
- The paellas you choose
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Anything your venue supplies
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Your date and when you want to eat
- A photo of the space, if you can
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, the courses you’d like and any extras. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.
