Wedding paella catering near Rosehill

Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Rosehill

Timing is everything with paella: the rice needs about 20 minutes and is best served immediately. We time it around your speeches and photos. On the menu are table tapas, a paella wedding breakfast and canapé tapas, and we’re frequently booked for parties after a register office wedding and barn and farm weddings.

London weddings around Rosehill often mean a ceremony at a church or register office, then a reception at a hired venue or a family garden. Paella suits either, given a ventilated cooking spot. Plan parking and loading early. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

Catering for every guest

With a little notice, every diet is easy. Our advice:

  • Tell us how many evening guests to expect
  • Enquire early for peak dates
  • Confirm the venue’s catering rules early
  • Tell us when speeches will be

The pans are frequently set up where guests can see them, and it makes a great photo.

Finish with Spanish desserts or your cake.

Planners, venues and businesses

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.

Organising a club, school or community event in Rosehill? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Give us the details and we’ll suggest a plan.

Desserts

A sweet finish: churros, crema catalana or your wedding cake.

Paella wedding breakfast

The main event: paellas for every diet, served hot and generous.

What we need at the venue

If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. The main points are:

  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
  • Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans

Rosehill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

Prices and what affects them

Your quote will be clear and itemised. What affects it most:

  • How long we are needed on site
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • The number of people
  • The paellas you choose

Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed before you book.

Details that help

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • A picture of where we’d cook
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • What the venue already provides

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Choosing between paella and a traditional menu?, consider your venue, diets and the style you want. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

Why book with us

  • A quote that spells everything out
  • Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
  • Crockery and waiting staff if you need them
  • Food that becomes part of the entertainment

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

How the day works

When the rice goes in, it’s left alone. That is how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. The smell normally draws people over. Golden-hour photos in Rosehill at midsummer come around 9:20pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and ideas.
  2. We plan a menu with you, course by course, and confirm a quote.
  3. We agree timings with you and your venue, including speeches and photos.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve each course as planned.
  5. We clear our cooking area, and staff stay as agreed.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches

Your questions about wedding paella catering in Rosehill

We are having a ceremony at St Peter's Church: can you cater afterwards?

Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking generally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.

What’s the nearest station to Rosehill for guests?

The closest is Sutton Common station, roughly 0.8 miles away.

What space do you need to cook?

Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.

Is paella too casual for a wedding?

It can be dressed up or kept relaxed, depending on presentation and service.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes. Children frequently love a simple chicken paella. Tell us how many are coming.

Can you cater the whole day?

We can. Canapé tapas, table tapas, a paella wedding breakfast, evening food and desserts, or any part of that.

What if the weather’s bad?

We need a covered spot, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We plan for rain with you in advance.
