How we price wedding paella catering

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • The length of service
  • Plates, cutlery and glassware
  • The paellas you choose
  • Parking and unloading

Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

What to tell us

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • A picture of where we’d cook
  • The courses you’d like
  • The date and time of the event

Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send a clear, itemised quote and a suggested menu.

About our wedding paella catering in Lawrence Hill

Paella suits relaxed, sociable weddings, long tables and garden or barn venues. It feels generous and celebratory. We are frequently asked to cater receptions after an intimate ceremony and marquee and garden weddings, with table tapas, canapé tapas and a paella wedding breakfast.

A farm or garden wedding near Lawrence Hill suits live paella. We will need a level spot and a way to reach it. We serve straight from the pan, so it is hot and generous, and a queue moves quickly.

How to compare caterers

Dietary needs and planning tips

Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:

  • Ask about your date as soon as you have one
  • Connect us with your coordinator
  • Check the venue’s rules for outside caterers
  • Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards

If things run late, and we’ll adapt the timing so the paella is served at its best.

Canapé tapas with the drinks reception keep guests going during photos.

Dishes our guests love

Canapé tapas

Canapé tapas fill the gap before the meal, without spoiling appetites.

Desserts

To finish: Spanish desserts or your own cake.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Live paella or other catering?

Buffets can mean food sitting for a while. Paella goes straight from pan to plate when guests are ready. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What you get with us

  • Waiting staff and crockery on request
  • Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
  • Everything cooked fresh at your event
  • Fast service from the pan

Planners, venues and businesses

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

What happens on the day

We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your wedding. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first as the rice is cooking. For a summer wedding in Lawrence Hill, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening paella is generally served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.

  1. Share your date, venue, numbers and plans for the day.
  2. We plan a menu with you, course by course, and confirm a quote.
  3. We agree timings with you and your venue, including speeches and photos.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve each course as planned.
  5. We clear our cooking area, and staff stay as agreed.

Before we arrive

  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Check the venue allows live cooking
