Step by step

A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan when you’re ready to eat. At midsummer, sunset in West Wycombe is about 9:25pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

  1. Share your date, venue, numbers and plans for the day.
  2. We plan a menu with you, course by course, and confirm a quote.
  3. Timings are agreed with you and the venue, around speeches and photos.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve every course on cue.
  5. We clear our cooking area, and staff stay as agreed.

Getting ready for the day

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather

Questions from West Wycombe

We’re having a ceremony at Congregational Church: can you cater afterwards?

Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking typically happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.

Which station should guests use for West Wycombe?

The closest is Saunderton station, roughly 2.3 miles away.

Will you talk to our venue?

Of course. We are happy to talk to your venue about access, timings and requirements.

Can you provide dessert?

We do. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices.

Can you serve drinks?

Sangria, yes. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.

Is paella smart enough for a wedding?

Served well, it feels generous and special: canapés, table tapas, good crockery and staff serving the tables.

Do you offer halal options?

We can. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we’ll cook a separate pan.

Do you do canapés and evening food too?

Any part of the day, or all of it, from the drinks reception to the evening.

Planning for every diet

We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To make it work smoothly:

  • Give us separate day and evening numbers
  • Enquire early for peak dates
  • Confirm the venue’s catering rules early
  • Let us know about meals for your band or photographer

Fresh pans can be cooked for evening guests, timed for after the first dance.

Add sangria, or bar staff to serve your own drinks.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.

Where we can cook in West Wycombe

We cook in large pans over gas burners, so the cooking area needs a little planning. These are the things we check:

  • Parking close enough to carry equipment
  • Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
