Wedding paella catering in Peper Harow, cooked live
At a wedding, paella is both the meal and a bit of a show. Guests drift over to watch the pans while the photos are being taken, and the meal arrives hot and generous. We are frequently asked to cater weddings in a marquee or garden and barn and farm weddings, with Spanish desserts, evening paella and a paella wedding breakfast.
Rural weddings around Peper Harow have a magic of their own, and paella cooking in the open air adds to it. Plan access and cover in case of rain. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Catering for every guest
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Include any suppliers you’re feeding
- Book early for summer Saturdays
- Tell us how many evening guests to expect
- Connect us with your coordinator
If things run late, and we’ll adjust the cooking so it is still served fresh.
Spanish desserts, or your own wedding cake, finish the meal.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We need:
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- An open-sided catering gazebo next to the marquee
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before booking.

Should I cook it myself?
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.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Peper Harow questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Nicholas?
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.
Can you cook at venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you do sangria?
Sangria can be added, and provide bar staff to serve drinks you supply.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.
Can you feed our photographer and band?
Yes, include them in your numbers. Tell us when they’ll eat.
Can you cook indoors?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces frequently work.
Where do you cater?
We cater across London and the South East, including Surrey. Find your area.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook under cover, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We plan for rain with you in advance.
