Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Twyford
At a wedding, paella is both the meal and a bit of a show. Guests wander over to watch while the photos are taken, and the food arrives hot and plentiful. We cook canapé tapas, table tapas and a paella wedding breakfast, and we are regularly asked to cater garden and marquee weddings and barn and farm weddings.
Weddings in a place like Twyford frequently feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. A huge pan on the lawn fits right in. Let us know about access for the van. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.
Working with your venue

The process
Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring. Golden-hour photos in Twyford at midsummer come around 9:25pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- You tell us your date, venue, guest numbers and how you picture the day.
- We build the menu course by course and send a quote.
- We fit our timings around your speeches, photos and venue.
- On the day, we set up, cook in front of your guests and serve each course.
- We pack down our cooking area, with staff staying as long as agreed.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook

Twyford questions
Which station should guests use for Twyford?
Twyford station, in Twyford itself.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is usually elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.

It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
What about pudding?
We can add a dessert. Tell us what you have in mind in your enquiry.
Do you cover Twyford?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Twyford is within our area. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
Can paella feel formal?
It can be as relaxed or as polished as you like, depending on how it is served.
Do you do canapés and evening food too?
Any part of the day, or all of it, from the drinks reception to the evening.
What if the timings change?
We adapt. We keep in touch with your venue on the day and time the rice so it is served at its best.
