Your questions about wedding paella catering in Leverton
How far is Leverton from London?
Roughly 62 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you come out to small places like Leverton?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes, and meat eaters frequently go back for seconds. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
Can you supply plates?
We can. Tell us what your venue provides and we’ll include the rest in the quote.
How much space do you need?
Not a lot: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Do you cook inside?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, because we use gas burners. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.
How many paellas should we have?
Most events have two or three: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We’ll help you decide the split.
How long do you need on site?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We’ll agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.
Wedding paella catering in Leverton, cooked live
Paella suits relaxed, sociable weddings, long tables and garden or barn venues. It feels generous without being stuffy. We are frequently asked to cater parties after a register office wedding and weddings in a marquee or garden, with a paella wedding breakfast, table tapas and Spanish desserts.
A wedding in a small place like Leverton frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is exactly where live paella shines: no kitchen needed, just a level, sheltered spot. Let us know about access and ground. We serve straight from the pan, so it is hot and generous, and a queue moves quickly.

Golden-hour photos in Leverton at midsummer come around 9:25pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 9:00pm, and in late September about 7:10pm.

Diets, allergies and planning
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
- Choose pan-side or table service
- Check the venue’s rules for outside caterers
- Ask about diets and allergies with your RSVPs
Fresh pans can be cooked for evening guests, timed for after the first dance.
Table tapas make a sociable starter.
DIY paella versus live catering
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
For event organisers in Leverton
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so guests are fed quickly. Tell us how long you have for food.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.
