Wedding paella catering for North Greenwich events

Planning for every diet

Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:

  • Send us the running order and speech times
  • Ask about your date as soon as you have one
  • Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
  • Introduce us to your venue coordinator

We clear our cooking area away afterwards; staff you’ve booked stay as agreed.

Canapés during the photos keep hunger at bay.

Wedding paella catering in North Greenwich, cooked live

We can cater your whole wedding day or one part of it: canapés, a tapas starter, a paella wedding breakfast, evening food and dessert. For weddings with a Spanish theme and farm and barn venues, we can cook canapé tapas, Spanish desserts and a paella wedding breakfast and more.

For a wedding in North Greenwich, think about how guests travel between ceremony and reception. The paella can be cooking while everyone makes their way over, ready to serve on arrival. We plan the timings around your day, so the paella is ready when you want to eat.

The menu, dish by dish

Table tapas

Sharing tapas breaks the ice before the paella arrives.

Evening paella

Fresh pans for evening guests, served quickly so the party keeps going.

The process

The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. Golden-hour photos in North Greenwich at midsummer come around 9:20pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.

  1. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We plan your menu course by course.
  3. Timings are agreed with your venue.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve each course.
  5. We clear our area; staff stay as booked.

Getting ready for the day

  • Check the venue allows live cooking
  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
  • Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable

Paella compared with other options

  • Sangria and bar staff available
  • We cover North Greenwich and the whole of Greater London
  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
  • A quote that spells everything out

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

Prices and what affects them

Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • How long we are needed on site
  • Whether you need crockery
  • How many staff you need
  • Your choice of paellas

The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Details that help

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • A photo of the space, if you can
  • Anything your venue supplies

Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.

Common questions in North Greenwich

What about parking in North Greenwich?

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

We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Nicholas: can you cater afterwards?

Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is normally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.

Do you offer halal options?

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

Is paella smart enough for a wedding?

It can be dressed up or kept relaxed, depending on presentation and service.

When do you arrive?

We get there in good time to set up. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, and we time it to your schedule.

What about supplier meals?

Yes. Add your suppliers to the final numbers.

What if photos overrun?

We adapt. We keep in touch with your venue on the day and time the rice so it is served at its best.

How do you work out quantities?

We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a sensible margin. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

Space, weather and the venue

We will be honest if a space won’t work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • Level ground for the pans and burners
  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot

As a London location, North Greenwich is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.
