About our wedding paella catering in Molash

We can add sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff, to suit the style of your day. For food for evening guests and weddings with lots of dietary needs, we’ll put together a menu of evening paella, table tapas and canapé tapas and more.

Near Molash, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. That is exactly where live paella shines: no kitchen, just a level, sheltered spot. Let us know about access and ground. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated, and served as soon as it is ready.

About the dishes

Canapé tapas

One- and two-bite tapas on boards, perfect during the photos.

Desserts

Churros with chocolate, crema catalana or tarta de Santiago, or your cake as dessert.

DIY paella versus live catering

Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.

Our caterer checklist

Step by step

When we arrive, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so we time everything to your schedule. At midsummer, sunset in Molash is about 9:15pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:45pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September.

  1. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We plan your menu course by course.
  3. We agree timings with you and your venue.
  4. On the day, we cook and serve each course.
  5. We pack down, and staff stay as agreed.

Paella compared with other options

A hog roast is popular at weddings, but harder for vegetarian, vegan and halal guests. Separate paella pans cover every diet. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
