Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Peaks Hill
Sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff can be added, so the catering fits the way you want your day to feel. Popular choices include evening paella, a paella wedding breakfast and canapé tapas, and we’re often booked for relaxed sharing-style wedding breakfasts and food for evening guests.
London weddings around Peaks Hill frequently mean a ceremony at a church or register office, then a reception at a hired venue or a family garden. Live paella works well at both, as long as there is a ventilated spot to cook. In London, parking and loading need planning early. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Should I cook it myself?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it is in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Choosing between paella and a traditional menu?, consider your venue, diets and the style you want. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
Why choose Love Paella in Peaks Hill

What happens on the day
The cooking is part of the entertainment. 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 Peaks Hill, 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 normally 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.
