Wedding paella catering in Maiden's Green, made fresh on the day

Evening paella is a favourite: hot, filling and served quickly from the pan, so the party keeps going. For relaxed sharing-style wedding breakfasts and receptions after an intimate ceremony, we’ll put together a menu of evening paella, Spanish desserts and canapé tapas for your guests.

A wedding in a small place like Maiden's Green often means a field, a barn or a family garden. Live paella is made for that: no kitchen, just a level, sheltered spot. Let us know about access and ground. We bring everything we need to cook, and pack down our cooking area when service is finished.

Our caterer checklist

Planning for every diet

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:

  • Include any suppliers you’re feeding
  • Tell us when speeches will be
  • Book early for summer Saturdays
  • Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards

Fresh pans can be cooked for evening guests, timed for after the first dance.

Crockery, cutlery and waiting staff are available if your venue doesn’t.

What wedding paella catering costs

Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Your choice of paellas
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • Guest numbers
  • Waiting and bar staff

Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.

Getting an accurate quote

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • What the venue already provides
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Where the event is

Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, use our quote form.

Should I cook it myself?

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Working with your venue

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.

For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so everyone eats promptly. Let us know how long the food break is.
