Rural weddings around Mullenspond have a magic of their own, and paella cooking in the open air adds to it. Plan for access and a wet-weather cover. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

Questions from Mullenspond
Is Mullenspond close to London?
About 67 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like Mullenspond?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.
What do you need at the venue?
Not a lot: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. If in doubt, send a photo.
Do you take everything away?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we will check with you and the venue.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Of course. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, while the rice is cooking.
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but a few things matter:
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we price wedding paella catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- How long we are needed on site
- Waiting and bar staff
- How many courses
- Travel, parking and access
Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Details that help
The more we know about your wedding, the better we can plan. Please include:
- What the venue already provides
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- A photo of the space, if you can
Still deciding on the menu? No problem: give us the basics about your wedding, and we will make suggestions. Start when you are ready: send us your details through our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so everyone eats promptly. Let us know how long the food break is.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Food trucks serve one order at a time, which can mean long queues at a wedding. Paella pans serve many guests quickly. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you can choose exactly what you need.
What you get with us
- No hidden extras in your quote
- Everything cooked fresh at your event
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
- Served hot, straight from the pan
See Our prices page Or The cost guide.
How the day works
Serving is fast: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so large groups are fed quickly. When service is finished, we pack down. In Mullenspond, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:10pm, 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 4:00pm.
