Wedding paella catering for Redenham events
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.

Wedding paella catering in Redenham, made fresh on the day
Sharing from big pans suits relaxed weddings, especially with long tables and outdoor venues. It feels generous and celebratory. Popular choices include evening paella, a paella wedding breakfast and canapé tapas, and typical bookings are for big weddings with every diet and wedding receptions after a small ceremony.
Near Redenham, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. Live paella is made for that: no kitchen needed, just a level, sheltered spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated, and served as soon as it is ready.
Space, weather and the venue
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
- An open-sided catering gazebo next to the marquee
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

What’s in the pans
Table tapas
Tapas set out on every table to share, from bravas to croquetas and Manchego.
Paella wedding breakfast
Paellas for every guest, served straight from the pan.
Planning for every diet
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Ask whether your venue allows outside caterers
- Count day and evening guests separately
- Ask about diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Enquire early for peak dates
If things run late, and we’ll adjust the cooking so it’s still served fresh.
Add sangria, or bar staff to serve your own drinks.
Redenham: your questions answered
Is Redenham close to London?
About 66 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Peter in the Wood?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is usually elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We will agree a wet-weather plan with you.
Can you liaise with the venue coordinator?
Yes, and it saves you passing messages. Introduce us and we’ll sort the details.
How many paellas should we have?
Most events have two or three: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We’ll help you decide the split.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, it is the classic pairing. Tapas first, paella to follow.
How much is live paella catering?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually want. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a price.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan a pan with them in mind.

How the day works
Service is quick: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. In Redenham, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:10pm, so an evening paella for evening guests is typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- Together we plan each course.
- We agree timings with you and your venue.
- On the day, we cook and serve each course.
- We pack down, and staff stay as agreed.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
