Live wedding paella catering in St Pancras
Wedding paella catering for your wedding in St Pancras
Sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff can be added, to suit the style of your day. Typical bookings include evening food for extra guests and big weddings with every diet, serving Spanish desserts, a paella wedding breakfast and canapé tapas.
Couples in St Pancras frequently marry locally and hold the reception at a venue or garden nearby. Live paella works well at both, as long as there’s a ventilated spot to cook. In London, parking and loading need planning early. You’ll know exactly what’s included before you book: the menu, the staff and any extras, with no surprises on the day.

DIY paella versus live catering
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Organising for someone else?
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so everyone eats promptly. Tell us how long you have for food.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

Spanish desserts from churros to crema catalana.
Evening paella
Fresh pans for evening guests, served quickly so the party keeps going.
Planning for every diet
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
- Ask whether your venue allows outside caterers
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
- Tell us how many evening guests to expect
We keep in touch with your venue coordinator or toastmaster on the day, so you can enjoy yourselves.
Add sangria, or bar staff to serve your own drinks.
What wedding paella catering costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The length of service
- Distance and access to the venue
- How many guests are eating
- Waiting and bar staff
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- Your date and when you want to eat
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers

What about parking in St Pancras?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We will work around it.
Can you cook in Lincoln's Inn Fields?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
How many different paellas?
Typically two or three, so every guest has a choice. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.

Can you cook in the rain?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll make a plan B with you.
Step by step
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your wedding. Any tapas or canapés are served first while the paella cooks.

- Together we plan each course and confirm the price.
- We agree timings with you and your venue, including speeches and photos.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve each course as planned.
- We pack down our cooking area, with staff staying as long as agreed.
How to prepare
