About our wedding paella catering in Noel Park

We can add sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff, to suit the style of your day. We cook Spanish desserts, canapé tapas and a paella wedding breakfast, and typical bookings are for evening wedding food and destination-style celebrations at home.

Couples in Noel Park often marry locally and hold the reception at a venue or garden nearby. Paella suits either, given a ventilated cooking spot. In London, parking and loading need planning early. Your quote spells out exactly what’s included: menu, staff, crockery and anything else you choose.

Common questions in Noel Park

What about parking in Noel Park?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will work around it.

Could we have live paella in Ducketts Common?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.

How much paella per person?

We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Let us know about any other food. Our guide to portions explains more.

How long does the paella take?

We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, and we time it to your schedule.

Will you talk to our venue?

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

Can you do our whole wedding menu?

Any part of the day, or all of it, from canapés to evening food.

Can we add tapas or canapés?

Of course. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, while the rice is cooking.

Is halal food available?

Yes, we do. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in its own pan.

What affects the price in Noel Park

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • The number of people

There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.

What we need to know

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • A picture of where we’d cook
  • The address or venue name
  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts

Evening paella

Paella makes great evening food.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.

How it works

The paella is cooked in giant, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. For a summer wedding in Noel Park, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an evening paella for evening guests is usually served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.

  1. You tell us your date, venue, guest numbers and how you picture the day.
  2. We build the menu course by course and send a quote.
  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. We pack down our cooking area, with staff staying as long as agreed.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Leave space around the cooking area
  • Tell us where to park and unload

Before you choose a spot

If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • A safe distance from anything that could catch
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
  • The venue’s permission for live cooking

As a London location, Noel Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

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