The process

We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s still served fresh.

  1. Send us your wedding date, venue and numbers.
  2. We plan your menu course by course.
  3. Timings are agreed with your venue.
  4. On the day, we cook and serve each course.
  5. We pack down, and staff stay as agreed.

How to prepare
