Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Nyetimber
Sharing from big pans suits relaxed weddings, long tables and garden or barn venues. It feels generous and celebratory. Whether it is blessings and vow renewals and sharing-style wedding meals, we can cook evening paella, Spanish desserts and table tapas for your guests.
Weddings in a place like Nyetimber often feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. A giant pan on the lawn fits right in. Tell us about access to the field or garden. You’ll know exactly what’s included before you book: menu, staff, crockery and anything else you choose, with no surprises on the day.

Catering for every guest
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Include any suppliers you are feeding
- Share your running order, including speeches
- Give us separate day and evening numbers
- Ask whether your venue allows outside caterers
If speeches or photos run over, tell us, and we’ll adjust the cooking so it is still served fresh.
We can provide crockery and waiting staff if your venue doesn’t.

How the day works
Watching it cook is half the fun. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook while your guests chat. For a summer wedding in Nyetimber, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening paella is generally served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.
- Share your date, venue, numbers and plans for the day.
- We plan a menu with you, course by course, and confirm a quote.
- We agree timings with you and your venue, including speeches and photos.
- On the day, we set up, cook in front of your guests and serve each course.
- Afterwards we clear our area; any staff you’ve booked stay as planned.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
- Tell us where to park and unload
Getting a price

What affects the price in Nyetimber
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Distance and access to the venue
- The length of service
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you can choose exactly what you need.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- The venue or postcode
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
- The date and time of the event
- A photo of the space, if you can
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. You can fill in our quote form.
For event organisers in Nyetimber
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Paella compared with other options
A hog roast is popular at weddings, but harder for vegetarian, vegan and halal guests. Separate paella pans cover every diet. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, plus any staff, crockery and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

Questions from Nyetimber
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Thomas A Becket?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking usually happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you cook near the sea around Nyetimber?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
What do you need at the venue?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Is paella smart enough for a wedding?
It can be dressed up or kept relaxed, depending on how it is served.
Can you liaise with the venue coordinator?
Yes. We’re happy to talk to your venue about access, timings and requirements.
How much is live paella catering?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you do sangria?
Sangria can be added, and provide bar staff to serve drinks you supply.
