How our wedding paella catering works in Stanwell Moor
At a wedding, paella is both the meal and a bit of a show. Guests drift over to watch the pans while the photos are being taken, and the food arrives hot and plentiful. On the menu are canapé tapas, table tapas and Spanish desserts, and we are frequently booked for spanish-themed and destination-style weddings and blessings and vow renewals.
Rural weddings around Stanwell Moor have a magic of their own, and paella cooking in the open air adds to it. Plan access and cover in case of rain. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Questions from Stanwell Moor
Do you come out to small places like Stanwell Moor?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

About 18 miles from central London.
Do you cook it at the event?

What if the weather’s bad?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We will talk it through before the day.

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

Live paella or other catering?
Live paella is less formal than a plated meal, but with the right extras it feels just as special. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll put together a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can be a feast.

Working with your venue
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about parking, and we’ll let you know if live paella is a good fit.
Should I cook it myself?
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
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.

Step by step

In Stanwell Moor, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, which means evening paella is typically served in daylight in June and July.
