A closer look at the menu
Paella wedding breakfast
The main event: paellas for every diet, served hot and generous.
Desserts
A sweet finish: Spanish desserts or your own cake.
Should I cook it myself?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
