Planning an event in Littleton Common?
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Littleton Common
Evening paella is a favourite: hot, filling and served quickly from the pan, so the party keeps going. We cook table tapas, Spanish desserts and evening paella, and we’re regularly asked to cater blessings and vow renewals and weddings with mixed diets.
There is something special about a country wedding near Littleton Common, and paella cooking in the open air adds to it. Plan for access and a wet-weather cover. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.
Planning for every diet
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Ask about diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Share your running order, including speeches
- Ask about your date as soon as you have one
- Decide whether guests queue at the pans or are served at the tables
Guests can queue at the pans, or staff can serve the tables.
Finish with Spanish desserts or your cake.
