About our wedding paella catering in Tuesley
Your wedding menu is planned with you, course by course, to suit your guests, venue and budget. Typical bookings include civil partnerships and vow renewals and farm and barn venues, serving evening paella, a paella wedding breakfast and Spanish desserts.
Near Tuesley, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. Live paella is made for that: no kitchen, just a level, sheltered spot. Let us know about access and ground. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.
What wedding paella catering costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- The length of service
- The number of people
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
What to tell us
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Your date and when you want to eat
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- Any dietary needs and allergies
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll come back with a clear quote.
Step by step
Service is quick: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so large groups are fed quickly. When service is finished, we pack down. For a summer wedding in Tuesley, the sun sets at about 9:20pm 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 is dark by about 3:55pm.

DIY paella versus live catering
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
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.
- Cooked live in giant pans at your event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal options
- Paella, tapas, canapés and desserts
- Sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff
