Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Muddles Green

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 evening food for extra guests and sharing-style wedding meals, we can cook canapé tapas, table tapas and a paella wedding breakfast.

Rural weddings around Muddles Green have a magic of their own, and an open-air paella adds to it. Plan for access and a wet-weather cover. Everything is cooked from scratch at your wedding, not reheated, and served as soon as it’s ready.

Dietary needs and planning tips

We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Enquire early for peak dates
  • Tell us how many evening guests to expect
  • Confirm the venue’s catering rules early
  • Share your running order, including speeches

Paella can be served at the pans or carried to the tables by staff.

Table tapas make a sociable starter.

Step by step

We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your wedding. Any tapas or canapés are served first while the paella cooks. At midsummer, sunset in Muddles Green is about 9:15pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

  1. Share your date, venue, numbers and plans for the day.
  2. Together we plan each course and confirm the price.
  3. Timings are agreed with you and the venue, around speeches and photos.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve every course on cue.
  5. Afterwards we clear our area; any staff you’ve booked stay as planned.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely

How we price wedding paella catering

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • Travel, parking and access
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • Guest numbers
  • Timings and hours

Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • The address or venue name
  • A photo of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field
  • The courses you’d like

  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot
  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable

Live paella or other catering?

Plated wedding meals need a kitchen and more staff. Live paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission, and feels more relaxed. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. Every event gets its own quote.
