How our wedding paella catering works in Nuptown

We can add sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff, so the catering fits the way you want your day to feel. On the menu are canapé tapas, a paella wedding breakfast and Spanish desserts, and we’re regularly asked to cater barn and farm weddings and destination-style celebrations at home.

Rural weddings around Nuptown have a magic of their own, and paella cooking in the open air adds to it. Plan access and cover in case of rain. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

What wedding paella catering costs

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

  • The number of people
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • Whether you need crockery

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

Details that help

To speed things up, tell us:

  • The address or venue name
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • The date and time of the event
  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff

Still deciding on the menu? That’s fine: give us the basics about your wedding, and we’ll suggest a menu. To start, fill in our quote form.

Common questions in Nuptown

Do you come out to small places like Nuptown?

No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

Which station should guests use for Nuptown?

The closest is Bracknell station, roughly 3 miles away.

How soon do we need to book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.

Do you cater for young children?

Of course. Children frequently love a simple chicken paella. Tell us how many are coming.

How many paellas should we have?

Two or three is usual: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will suggest a split based on your guests.

What happens if it rains?

A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We will talk it through before the day.

Do you cover Nuptown?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Nuptown is within our area. To check your date, fill in our quote form.

Do you offer tastings?

Mention a tasting in your enquiry, and we will talk you through it.

Should I cook it myself?

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about parking, and we’ll let you know if live paella is a good fit.

The process

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. In Nuptown, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, so an evening paella for evening guests is typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.

  1. First, we check your date.
  2. You choose canapés, tapas, paellas and desserts.
  3. We confirm everything with your venue.
  4. The pans cook while guests enjoy the drinks.
  5. We serve, then pack down.

Preparing for the day

  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
