Your questions about wedding paella catering in Mill End
Do you cater in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Could we have live paella in Fawley Court and Temple Island?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes, always. We cook from scratch in large pans at your venue, where your guests can watch.
Do you cater for suppliers?
Of course. Include suppliers in your numbers and we will plan for them.
Is paella smart enough for a wedding?
It can be as relaxed or as polished as you like, depending on how it’s served.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can, if you tell us in advance. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
Live paella or other catering?
Hog roasts are popular but tricky for mixed diets. Separate paella pans cover every diet. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
Why us?
- No hidden extras in your quote

Before you choose a spot
Safety and good cooking both depend on the spot we use. We look for:
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover

Occasions we cook for in Mill End
It gives guests something to do between the ceremony and the meal: gather round the cooking.
Live paella suits almost any gathering. In Mill End, people book us for events such as:
- Rustic barn weddings
- Big weddings with every diet
- Receptions after an intimate ceremony
- Evening food for extra guests
Couples marrying at local churches such as Church of St Mary frequently hold the reception nearby: we can be cooking during the photos, so it’s ready as guests arrive.
What your quote should include
- Whether travel is included
- The deadline for final numbers
- How many staff are coming, and for how long
- The wet-weather plan
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Enquire early for peak dates
- Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
- Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
- Give us separate day and evening numbers
If things run late, and we will adapt the timing so the paella is served at its best.
Canapés during the photos keep hunger at bay.
Should I cook it myself?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
How it works
We work to your timings. If things run behind, we adjust the cooking so it’s still served fresh. At midsummer, sunset in Mill End is about 9:25pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- Send us your wedding date, venue and numbers.
- Together we plan each course.
- Timings are agreed with your venue.
- We cook live on the day and serve each course.
- We clear our area; staff stay as booked.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
