Wedding paella catering near Rew Street
How our wedding paella catering works in Rew Street
Paella as evening food is popular: it’s hot, filling and quick to serve, so the party keeps going. We’re often asked to cater weddings with mixed diets and food for evening guests, with Spanish desserts, evening paella and table tapas.
A wedding in a small place like Rew Street often means a field, a barn or a family garden. Live paella is made for that: no kitchen, just a level, sheltered spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Every pan is cooked in front of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

How it works
We get there well before serving, unload, set up the burners and prepare the stock. Guests generally gather round to watch while it cooks. In Rew Street, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, 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.

- 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.
How to prepare

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

Questions from Rew Street
Can you cater a reception after a service at All Saints' Church?
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. Tell us where the reception will be.

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Rew Street.
Do you take everything away?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
Is halal food available?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and it is cooked separately.

A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, served while the paella cooks.
