How our wedding paella catering works in Wadwick
Sharing from big pans suits relaxed weddings, especially with long tables and outdoor venues. It feels generous and celebratory. We are frequently asked to cater garden and marquee weddings and receptions after an intimate ceremony, serving table tapas, canapé tapas and Spanish desserts.
Rural weddings around Wadwick have a magic of their own, and an open-air paella adds to it. Plan for access and a wet-weather cover. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and a queue moves quickly.
Space, weather and the venue
Before the day, we’ll agree where we cook. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- Level ground for the pans and burners
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, every diet is easy. Our advice:
