How we price wedding paella catering
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Distance and access to the venue
- How many courses
- How many guests are eating
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
What we need to know
The more we know about your wedding, the better we can plan. Please include:
- What the venue already provides
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- The venue or postcode
- Your date and when you want to eat
Still deciding on the menu? No problem: give us the basics about your wedding, and we’ll suggest a menu. Start when you’re ready: use our quote form.
