Wedding paella catering for Perivale events
Wedding paella catering in Perivale, made fresh on the day
Paella suits relaxed, sociable weddings, long tables and garden or barn venues. It feels generous and celebratory. We are often asked to cater destination-style celebrations at home and weddings in a marquee or garden, with evening paella, canapé tapas and Spanish desserts.
In Perivale, getting guests from ceremony to reception is part of the plan. The paella can be cooking while everyone makes their way over, so it is ready when they arrive. The paella is served straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and a queue moves quickly.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Share your running order, including speeches

- Confirm the venue’s catering rules early
Fresh pans can be cooked for evening guests, timed for after the first dance.
Finish with Spanish desserts or your cake.
What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and it’s served hot from the pan at the agreed time. At midsummer, sunset in Perivale is about 9:20pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

Perivale questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at St. Mary with St. Nicholas - Perivale?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is normally elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
What’s the nearest station to Perivale for guests?
The closest is South Greenford station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
What do you need at the venue?
Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a photo.
Can you do sangria?
Sangria, yes. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your menu and numbers. We will agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.
What if the timings change?
We plan for it. We time the rice to the actual running order, so it is served at its best.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Planners, venues and businesses
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.
What we need at the venue
We’ll be honest if a space will not work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- A cooking spot outside the marquee, not inside it
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
Perivale is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
