About our wedding paella catering in Langney
Timing is everything with paella: once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, and it is best served straight away. We time it around your speeches and photos. We’re often asked to cater evening food for extra guests and weddings with mixed diets, with evening paella, table tapas and canapé tapas.
Weddings in a place like Langney frequently feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. Paella cooked on the lawn suits that perfectly. Let us know about access for the van. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so the food is hot, fresh and part of the occasion.

Working with your venue
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.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.

How the day works
We work to your timings. If things run behind, we hold the paella at the right stage so it is served at its best. For a summer wedding in Langney, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so an evening paella for evening guests is usually served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- Together we plan each course.
- We agree timings with you and your venue.
- We cook live on the day and serve each course.
- We clear our area; staff stay as booked.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Check the venue allows live cooking

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
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 for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
