What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we adjust the cooking so it’s still served fresh. For a summer wedding in Madley Park, the sun sets at about 9:30pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, which means evening paella is normally served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.
- Share your date, venue, numbers and plans for the day.
- We plan a menu with you, course by course, and confirm a quote.
- Timings are agreed with you and the venue, around speeches and photos.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve each course as planned.
- Afterwards we clear our area; any staff you’ve booked stay as planned.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us where to park and unload
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches

Questions from Madley Park
We are having a ceremony at Church of Holy Trinity: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is usually elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
Is Madley Park close to London?
Roughly 62 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you offer tastings?
Mention a tasting in your enquiry, and we will explain how it works.
Can you cook in the rain?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll make a plan B with you.
Do you work with our venue?
Yes, it makes life easier. Put us in touch and we’ll agree the details.
Should we have more than one paella?
Two or three covers most guests. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we’ll suggest the mix.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
Should I cook it myself?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
- Choose pan-side or table service
- Tell us about suppliers who need feeding
- Connect us with your coordinator
We keep in touch with your venue coordinator or toastmaster on the day, so you do not have to.
Canapés during the photos keep hunger at bay.

- A picture of where we’d cook
