How our wedding paella catering works in Latimer
A wedding paella is food and entertainment at once. Guests drift over to watch the pans while the photos are being taken, and the food arrives hot and plentiful. Typical bookings include weddings with lots of dietary needs and rustic barn weddings, serving evening paella, a paella wedding breakfast and table tapas.
Near Latimer, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. Live paella is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a level, sheltered spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We serve straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once it’s ready.

How it works
A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan when you’re ready to eat. Golden-hour photos in Latimer at midsummer come around 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
- You tell us your date, venue, guest numbers and how you picture the day.
- Together we plan each course and confirm the price.
- Timings are agreed with you and the venue, around speeches and photos.
- We cook live on the day and serve every course on cue.
- We clear our cooking area, and staff stay as agreed.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable

We normally set up where guests can watch, which makes a lovely backdrop for photos.
Sangria and bar staff can be added.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
Why choose live paella in Latimer?
If you are weighing up paella against a traditional menu, consider your venue, diets and the style you want. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
