How our wedding paella catering works in Osterley
Paella as evening food is popular: it is hot, filling and quick to serve, so the party keeps going. Popular choices include table tapas, Spanish desserts and a paella wedding breakfast, and typical bookings are for informal wedding breakfasts and farm and barn venues.
For a wedding in Osterley, think about how guests travel between ceremony and reception. The paella can be cooking while everyone makes their way over, so it’s ready when they arrive. Every pan is cooked in front of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

How it works
Once the rice is in, we don’t stir it. That’s what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. Your guests will smell it before they see it. Golden-hour photos in Osterley at midsummer come around 9:20pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- First, we check your date.
- You choose canapés, tapas, paellas and desserts.
- We confirm the plan with your coordinator.
- The pans cook while guests enjoy the drinks.
- We serve, then pack down.
Before we arrive
- Check the venue allows live cooking
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Leave space around the cooking area

What we need at the venue
The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We need:
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
Osterley is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think.

What wedding paella catering costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- The length of service
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The date and rough timings
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and you’ll get a menu idea and a price. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.

Planners, venues and businesses
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the garden and tell us about access, and we’ll let you know if live paella is a good fit.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Should I cook it myself?
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
FAQs for Osterley
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Mary's Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Live cooking usually happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
What about parking in Osterley?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We’ll plan unloading around it.
Can you bring crockery?
We can. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.
Do you cook it at the event?
Yes. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, served while the paella cooks.
Is halal food available?
Yes, we do. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in its own pan.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Can you cook indoors?
Typically we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we will check with you and the venue.
Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
- Count day and evening guests separately
- Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
- Decide whether guests queue at the pans or are served at the tables
Guests can queue at the pans, or staff can serve the tables.
We can provide crockery and waiting staff.
