Wedding paella catering in Marsh Green, cooked live
Timing is everything with paella: the rice needs about 20 minutes and is best served immediately. We plan it around your speeches and photos. For wedding receptions after a small ceremony and blessings and vow renewals, we’ll put together a menu of evening paella, table tapas and a paella wedding breakfast.

How the day works
On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so we time everything to your schedule. In Marsh Green, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means evening paella is normally served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- We check availability for your date.
- You choose canapés, tapas, paellas and desserts.
- We confirm everything with your venue.
- Guests watch the paella cook during the reception.
- We serve, then pack down.

Edenbridge Town station, about 1.6 miles north of the centre.

Usually two or three, so every guest has a choice. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.
Do you do vegan paella?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.

How much space do you need?
Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a picture.
Is live paella right for your wedding?
Buffets can mean food sitting for a while. Paella goes straight from pan to plate when guests are ready. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.
What you get with us
- Served hot, straight from the pan
- We cover Marsh Green and the whole of Kent
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
- Everything cooked fresh at your event
See Our pricing And Our guide to catering costs.
Should I cook it myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

- Ask about your date as soon as you have one
