FAQs for Stokenchurch

What’s the nearest station to Stokenchurch for guests?

The closest is Saunderton station, roughly 3.4 miles away.

Is Stokenchurch close to London?

Roughly 36 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

What if the timings change?

We adapt. We stay in touch with your coordinator so the paella is served fresh.

How many paellas should we have?

Two or three covers most guests. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we will suggest the mix.

Can paella feel formal?

Served well, it feels generous and special: canapés, tapas, crockery and table service.

What about pudding?

We do. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.

Is the paella gluten-free?

Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.

Will there be enough food?

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.

12 questions to ask before booking

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Catering for every guest

Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:

  • Give us separate day and evening numbers
  • Check the venue’s rules for outside caterers
  • Ask about your date as soon as you have one
  • Tell us about suppliers who need feeding

Fresh pans can be cooked for evening guests, generally timed after the first dance.

Finish with Spanish desserts or your cake.

How we price wedding paella catering

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:

  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.

What to tell us

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Expected numbers
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • The date and rough timings
  • The address or venue name

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

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.

If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

What happens on the day

A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and it’s served hot from the pan at the agreed time. For a summer wedding in Stokenchurch, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening paella is usually served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

  1. Send us your wedding date, venue and numbers.
  2. Together we plan each 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.

Before we arrive

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
