Wedding paella catering in Tottenham Hale, made fresh on the day

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 meal arrives hot and generous. Popular choices include a paella wedding breakfast, Spanish desserts and table tapas, and typical bookings are for weddings with a Spanish theme and garden and marquee weddings.

Couples in Tottenham Hale often marry locally and hold the reception at a venue or garden nearby. Paella suits either, given a ventilated cooking spot. In London, parking and loading need planning early. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in a separate pan and clearly labelled.

How we price wedding paella catering

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
  • How long we are needed on site
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff

Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.

What to tell us

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
  • Anything your venue supplies
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • A picture of where we’d cook

Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

Planning for every diet

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

  • Decide whether guests queue at the pans or are served at the tables
  • Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
  • Tell us how many evening guests to expect
  • Enquire early for peak dates

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

A table tapas starter gets everyone sharing.

How the day works

Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. At midsummer, sunset in Tottenham Hale is about 9:20pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.

  1. First, we check your date.
  2. You choose canapés, tapas, paellas and desserts.
  3. We confirm the plan with your coordinator.
  4. Guests watch the paella cook during the reception.
  5. We serve and clear our cooking area.

How to prepare

  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Share the running order, including any speeches

How to get a price

We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.

  • Somewhere close to park and unload
  • Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
