Wedding paella catering in Milton Hill

Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Milton Hill

Mixed diets are easy at a paella wedding: every paella is cooked separately, so vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests eat the same kind of meal as everyone else. Popular choices include table tapas, canapé tapas and Spanish desserts, and we’re regularly asked to cater weddings in a marquee or garden and spanish-themed and destination-style weddings.

A wedding in a small place like Milton Hill frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. Live paella is made for that: no kitchen, just a level, sheltered spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Your quote spells out exactly what’s included: the menu, the staff and any extras.

Milton Hill questions

How far is Milton Hill from London?

About 53 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you cook at venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Can you supply plates?

Yes, on request. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.

Will you talk to our venue?

Of course. We will speak to your venue about access and timings.

When should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.

Do you cater for suppliers?

Of course. Include suppliers in your numbers.

Can we have a tasting?

Mention a tasting in your enquiry, and we’ll explain how it works.

Do you do canapés and evening food too?

Any part of the day, or all of it, from the drinks reception to the evening.

Diets, allergies and planning

We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
  • Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
  • Tell us how many evening guests to expect
  • Ask about your date as soon as you have one

We normally set up where guests can watch, which makes a lovely backdrop for photos.

Spanish desserts, or your own wedding cake, finish the meal.

For event organisers in Milton Hill

Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Planning the cooking area

We will agree the cooking spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • The venue’s permission for live cooking
  • Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
  • Flat, firm ground for the cooking area

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

  2. We plan your menu course by course.
  3. We agree timings with you and your venue.

DIY paella versus live catering

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.

What wedding paella catering costs

We’ll give you a clear, itemised quote. What affects it most:

  • Whether you need crockery
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • The number of people
  • How long we are needed on site

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

Details that help

The more we know about your wedding, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
  • The courses you’d like
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children

Still deciding on the menu? That is fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we’ll make suggestions. To start, fill in our quote form.
