DIY paella versus live catering
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

How it works

Golden-hour photos in Tyler's Hill 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.

Paella compared with other options
Food trucks serve one order at a time, which can mean long queues at a wedding. Paella pans serve many guests quickly. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Why us?
- Every diet catered for, pan by pan
- Everything cooked fresh at your event
- No hidden extras in your quote
- Sangria and bar staff available

How we price wedding paella catering
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The length of service

- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed before booking.

- Roughly how many adults and children
- A photo of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field

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

Tyler's Hill questions
We are having a ceremony at St George's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Live cooking generally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you cater in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
What do you need at the venue?
Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a picture.
Can you liaise with the venue coordinator?
Of course. We are happy to talk to your venue about access, timings and requirements.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes. We cook from scratch in large pans at your venue, where your guests can watch.
Can you cook indoors?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Can you do sangria?
We can make sangria, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
Is paella too casual for a wedding?
With the right presentation, it feels special: canapés, tapas, crockery and table service.
