Wedding paella catering near Tyringham
The process
Here’s how the day usually runs: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and it’s served hot from the pan at the agreed time. Golden-hour photos in Tyringham at midsummer come around 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 9:00pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- First, we check your date.
- You pick the courses and dishes.
- We confirm everything with your venue.
- Guests watch the paella cook during the reception.
- We serve and clear our cooking area.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Make sure we can park close by to unload

How our wedding paella catering works in Tyringham
A paella wedding makes mixed diets simple: every paella is cooked separately, so every guest gets a proper hot main. We are frequently asked to cater food for evening guests and destination-style celebrations at home, with Spanish desserts, evening paella and table tapas.
Rural weddings around Tyringham have a magic of their own, and paella cooking in the open air adds to it. Plan access and cover in case of rain. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

Working with your venue
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.
Common questions in Tyringham
Which station should guests use for Tyringham?
The closest is Wolverton station, roughly 4.2 miles away.
Is Tyringham too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Who clears up?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.
How much is live paella catering?
The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook it there and then, then serve straight from the pan.
What happens if it rains?
We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We will agree a wet-weather plan with you.
Is paella too casual for a wedding?
It can be as relaxed or as polished as you like, depending on how it’s served.
