How our wedding paella catering works in Spurlands End
A paella wedding makes mixed diets simple: each paella has its own pan, so vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests eat the same kind of meal as everyone else. We cook Spanish desserts, table tapas and a paella wedding breakfast, and we are regularly asked to cater wedding receptions after a small ceremony and garden and marquee weddings.
Near Spurlands End, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That is exactly where live paella shines: no kitchen, just a level, sheltered spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. The paella is served straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and a queue moves quickly.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.

Paella compared with other options
