Twyford questions

Is Twyford too small for live paella?

About 50 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you do our whole wedding menu?

Yes. Canapé tapas, table tapas, a paella wedding breakfast, evening food and desserts, or any part of that.

What space do you need to cook?

Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.

Yes, it is the classic pairing. Tapas first, paella to follow.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan a pan with them in mind.

Wedding paella catering in Twyford, cooked live

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 a paella wedding breakfast, Spanish desserts and evening paella, and we’re regularly asked to cater weddings with lots of dietary needs and farm and barn venues.

There’s something special about a country wedding near Twyford, and an open-air paella adds to it. Plan for access and a wet-weather cover. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, with each paella cooked in its own pan and clearly labelled.

Why choose live paella in Twyford?

A hog roast is popular at weddings, but harder for vegetarian, vegan and halal guests. Paella covers them with separate pans. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Why choose Love Paella in Twyford

  • Waiting staff and crockery on request
  • Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
  • Cooking your guests will gather round to watch

How we price wedding paella catering

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Timings and hours
  • Whether you need crockery
  • Your choice of paellas
  • Waiting and bar staff

Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Everything is confirmed in writing.

Getting an accurate quote

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Which courses you have in mind
  • The venue or postcode
  • A picture of the space, if you can

Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. You can fill in our quote form.

The process

We get there well before serving, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Your guests are welcome to watch as the paella takes shape. In Twyford, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:10pm, so an evening paella for evening guests is typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.

  1. Share your date, venue, numbers and plans for the day.
  2. We build the menu course by course and send a quote.
  3. We fit our timings around your speeches, photos and venue.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve every course on cue.
  5. Afterwards we clear our area; any staff you’ve booked stay as planned.

Before we arrive

  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Tell us when you want to eat

Organising for someone else?

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Throwing a party at home? Send us a picture of the garden and tell us about access, and we’ll let you know if live paella is a good fit.

Should I cook it myself?

Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
